> bullshit jobs unrelated to the core product like legal, marketing, investor relations, HR, maybe even developers for R&D etc.

Wow. You think legal, marketing, investor relations are all bullshit jobs...?

Just wow.

If you're running a community funded website, you don't need any of this overhead. In the 90's, pretty much the entire internet ran without these jobs.

Sure, they're necessary if you have an actual company, but the point is that you can run a website without a company.

If you're not an official company with a legal presence, yes.

A lot of seriously dense replies to my comment, seemingly wilfully misunderstanding.

_Obviously_ the legal department at an actual company is not bullshit.

Try working at a big company for a little while.

Love that you excluded HR

No one needs HR.

C-level execs love their on-message HR.
