I don't think you get the compensation for devs capable of working on this stuff.

1.4b; assume 5% returns. That’s $70M per year for devs.

At $1M per year (equivalent to a good startup exit, but zero risk), that’s 70 engineers; probably senior to principal phd’s with 10 yr+ experience.

If that’s not enough to maintain a web browser, then pay them to simplify the damn thing.

Only people who live in SF are capable of programming a browser?
