Why is that? I feel like every other go security vulnerability was reported by a security researcher there, so I assumed they have a decent engineering culture.
You're right they are one of the largest Go-based applications and get asked to test go releases.
My opinion is they have a poor engineering culture though and worse leadership that is abandoning open-source roots, chasing "mission critical" government/enterprise business.
This is effectively a subsidy for the tech industry, why is this incentive necessary here? It's not specifically targeting startups from what I can tell and potentially just a kickback to large employers and investors.
All software jobs, including those in startups, are affected by the amortization rule. It makes it harder for startups to afford more software engineers because they have to pay taxes on cash they don't actually have.
The only companies the new amortization rule helps is big established firms that can afford to amortize because they have excess cashflow.
