    Do you think Gabe would even raise an eyebrow for such a pocket money offer? Or would he actually find enough effort to laugh at it?

      Gabe used to work for Microsoft, I can’t imagine he’s eager to repeat.

      https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gabe_Newell

      “He attended Harvard University in the early 1980s but dropped out to join Microsoft, where he helped create the first versions of the Windows operating system. He and another employee, Mike Harrington, left Microsoft in 1996 to found Valve, and funded the development of their first game, Half-Life (1998). Harrington left in 2000.”
