Resolution intention (not sure if Manifold affords it):
Resolve un-hired options as ambiguous,
Resolve hired options as a score Thekla gives them when they have enough info to resolve (9/10 would be 90%, 6/10 would be 60%).
Approx resolution date: June 1, 2024
If I can't resolve options to fractions, then
Resolve hired AND Thekla happy-with-them as true/yes/positive.
Resolve un-hired options as ambiguous
Resolve hired AND Thekla unhappy-with-them as false/no/negative.
Intended resolution source: average-score of the hiring company, maybe weighted by fraction of ownership.
(De facto I'll probably just try to get @Jonathan_Blow to resolve.
His standards are higher than the industry average, so adjust estimates accordingly)
Nuke-the-question clause.
If you're one of the choices or you're Thekla and have a large (especially negative) stake in any outcome, don't be :surprised pikachu: if I decide to resolve everything ambiguous.
Arseny Kapoulkine came to mind after reading J's tweet.
He's a graphics-programmer who recently stepped away from Roblox, and is very well regarded in the Roblox bubble, so I'm starting with him as one option.

Also slightly nerd-sniped myself trying to think through how to aggregate info about hires.
