Won't necessarily go over well on Lemmy but still want to brag a bit. My company got bought by salesforce, life changing for my kids' kids (let alone me and my wife). Had a meeting this week with Marx Benioff and he said "I dont care about that i want to hear that v_krishna thinks" and then spent 15 minutes on the spot answering his questions.
Good for you. IMO, nobody's allowed to hate on this, if they haven't declined a life changing buy out offer themself.
I got multiple offers from big corpos and the death industry itself. Lockheed Martin wanted to pay me a high triple digit yearly salary, pay for my moving costs etc. I turned them down because I have actual morals.
Rock solid morals for triple digit, seven figures and people are likely to start to try to justify what they are being asked to do.
