What I Wish I'd Known About Equity Before Joining A Unicorn

Disclaimer: This piece is written anonymously. The names of a few particular companies are mentioned, but as common examples only.

This is a short write-up on things that I wish I'd known and considered before joining a private company (aka startup, aka unicorn in some cases). I'm not trying to make the case that you should never join a private company, but the power imbalance between founder and employee is extreme, and that potential candidates would

defmodule DrainStop do
  @moduledoc """
  DrainStop Attempts to gracefully shutdown an endpoint when a normal shutdown
  occurs. It first shuts down the acceptor, ensuring that no new requests can be
  made. It then waits for all pending requests to complete. If the timeout
  expires before this happens, it stops waiting, allowing the supervision tree
  to continue its shutdown order.

From this [issue](https://github.com/puphpet/puphpet/issues/1025#issuecomment-157059174):

I know that this issue is closed, but as I spent a lot of time to understand what was going on, I made some researches and I can explain why this happen, and you can fix it.

Using git config core.autocrlf true can help, but not on a multi-developpers project.
This command has to be the same on each developper machine, and that's not always the case.

You have to use the .gitattributes provided in the puphpet archive and edit it as follow (carefull, this file need to be in your project root)
You also need to use an IDE that allow you to save/edit files as LF (like phpstorm). You can check the type of the file in the bottom right corner, in the status bar (you'll see LF or CRLF while a file is opened)
