It was a 40 year old bank too

Just about time for a midlife banking crisis!

just google for "telegram vulnerability" and you'll quickly find how full of crap Pavel Durov is...

If you quit during that time can you sell?

I think the same rules apply. You can exercise but you'll owe taxes and can't sell any shares to cover the tax.

I don't know details on stock options, but for RSUs, my understanding is that it works like this: your signing bonus and part of yearly perf bonus is in equity. Signing bonus matures in four years, incrementally. 25% vests at the end of 1st year, the rest vests incrementally by month. Perf bonus vests in 1 yr. Once a RSU vests, it's yours. If you leave the company before a RSU vests, you lose it.

At IPO, RSUs get converted into stocks, however, there's a restriction that you can't sell them for 1 year from the IPO date. Tax obligation is handled by subtracting a portion of the units, rather than by paying out-of-pocket.

No, you have to wait the year.

I love how this post is the total opposite of John Resig's article about how WebKit is the jQuery of rendering engines: http://ejohn.org/blog/webkit-is-the-jquery-of-browser-engine...

And how the "bloat" added by adding WebKit specific hacks to jQuery is just 3 half-lines of code, I think it would be safe to assume that if Opera was as big as WebKit is jQuery would also need a lot of hacks for it.

Besides application tracking, no identifiable/compromisable data is being sent.
