<p>I'm sure this site works quite differently from what you say. There's no paid team of moderators flicking stories and comments off the site because management doesn't like them.<p>There's dang who I've seen edit headlines to match the site rules. Then there's the army of users upvoting and flagging stories, voting (up and down) and flagging comments. If you have some data to backup your sentiments, please do share it - we'd certainly like to evaluate it.</p>

<p>I’ve been using this account on HN since 2010. I created a new HN identity because reasons [1]. Some time after I had reaped a bit of karma, I was replying to someone who was being fairly emotional (and a but irrational) in their arguments. Someone else in the thread flagged their next reply. They thought I did the flagging, looked up the domain that matched the handle, found me on LinkedIn, and complained at me in DMs on LinkedIn. I was freaked out a little.<p>1 - this pseudonym has followed me through many places and it was time for a change</p>

<p>My sibling comments seem to all want to attribute this foresight to Jobs alone. Jobs had an organization of designers and engineers informing him. Not only informing, but collaborating. He’d express a vision, others would help shape and hone based on existing tech, or based on how they could build new tech, and eventually Jobs would present the vision and solution publicly.<p>And Jobs would take credit. And the process probably didn’t feel collaborative to the other employees. My point is that Jobs didn’t come up with these things all on his own. Other employees were heavily involved.</p>

<p>You owe tax on an exercise below market value, whether you can sell or not. This is why you get the official 409a valuation from the CFO before you file your taxes. The 409a is prepared by the company's CFO, accountants, lawyers, and somehow in conjunction with the IRS (or by IRS rules?) and is the valuation that you use to compute whether you owe tax on an exercise or not.<p>>The only thing that accurately values your shares is a sale.<p>Accurately? Perhaps. But until that sale happens, you can still be on the hook for more tax.</p>

<p>> ... fees have not traditionally been considered a requirement for probation completion ...<p>Is that the case? It seems like I've heard of cases where probation comes with requirements ("wear this tracking bracelet") that are provided by a private entity who bills the convict, and if the bill isn't paid, probation gets revoked.</p>

<p>I suspect (and I'm talking out of my bum here) that the verbiage is something along the lines of "...and any such sums required to conduct parole or probation...", then the service is outsourced to a private firm, and the private firm simply isn't monitored for due diligence in reporting accurate information to the state.</p>
