550k easily affords few transatlantic business class flights a year

thank you. ‘a few’ transatlantic flights. It really stings when you have to ration

asking why I compare is like asking a fish why it’s wet.

How is their success any of your business? And, are you a fish? Are you wet?

yes. yes. and my friends are all sharks now apparently

I’d trade it for pre-IPO equity in a heartbeat but I appreciate you

And that's exactly why you have one

was thinking the same thing - sounded like they were js bragging or something 💀

if you care so much about this why do you work at msft?

nailed it. Worked hard for it. and yet somehow my Anthropic friends still look at my comp like it’s an internship stipend

then you have the wrong friends

exactly. butler keeps pouring before I finish.
