But for multiples of three print “fizz” instead of the number and for the multiples of five print “buzz”. For numbers which are multiples of both three and five print “fizzbuzz”.

- 33. Works super well with collaborative workspaces. Search online for remote full time positions today and you won't find much. ... But in a few years almost everyone will be doing it and it will be a no brainer.* REMOTE TALENT

- 35. EQUITY FOR WHEN $$ IS JUST NOT ENOUGH
- 36. EQUITY Very heavily debated topic. ① Fairness > % ② Vesting ③ Slices ④ Shotgun clause ⑤ Equity ! = Currency ⑥ Dilution / Valuation !%#&
- 37. CONCLUSION ① High Demand: YYZ losing talent to SFO ② Remote talent & distributed teams => Future! ③ Startups: seek generalists ④ Established companies: seek both generalists & specialists ⑤ Technical interviews are very important ⑥ Go where the talent is ⑦ Culture is important to attract and retain talent ⑧ Give vesting equity to your founding team
