netted

It netted hundreds of thousands of views. It's been on dozens of websites.

The people in charge got raises and promotions because they netted the company more revenue. Tell me about your profits.

Perhaps the TC devs were ticked off that this audit kickstarter/indiegogo has netted so much money none of which goes to the devs. And this is their way of not playing along with the whole shenanigan.

This would have netted me maybe $200K except that the liquidation preference obliterated all profit for the founders and employees. So instead, the CEO chose to ride the thing into the ground.

It got killed pretty quickly, but netted me ~150 karma which was amusingly nontrivial back then. And as a byproduct, I think I became the first "public member" to get a glimpse of Arc, which was closed-source at the time.

In your example, you can say whatever you want about how it was worth more than you actually netted, but at the end of the day all that matters is the fact that you realized 16K

On Saturday/Sunday, I went to AngelHack SF and did a solo-project that ended up placing 2nd amongst +80 teams and netted me a $2500 credit from Firebase and an invitation to AngelHack's accelerator. Am I a bad developer, too?

Nacchio was convicted of running a pump-and-dump insider trading scam that netted him ~$100MM at the expense of common public shareholders. If there's an award for "most obnoxious implication of NSA's wrongdoing", it should go to the attempted rehabilitation of people like Nacchio.

For contrast, founder and CEO Mike Lynch has reportedly netted a tidy 500m or so for his share of the company.

Watt once had a lucrative Wall Street career coding software \n for real-time stock-trading systems until he wrote a packet-\n sniffing program for a long-time friend and found himself \n embroiled in a multi-million-dollar bank card heist that \n netted him a two-year prison term. \n\nI love how puff-pieces always trivialize the things that would run counter to their narrative.

No Congressperson ever said these things while Swartz was still alive, and his prosecution was just as ridiculous then, but saying so wouldn't have netted you nearly the positive media coverage in the tech press that it will now.

Reprising a comment from a long time ago: Nacchio was convicted of running a pump-and-dump insider trading scam that netted him ~$100MM at the expense of common public shareholders. If there's an award for "most obnoxious implication of NSA's wrongdoing", it should go to the attempted rehabilitation of people like Nacchio.
