Nice article. I like the Barbican and have spent a fair bit of time there over the last 25 years. I even worked out how to get from A to B without getting lost. Not been recently t…

And guess who is paying for her mistake? Everyone except the perpetrator. That bank refund comes from somewhere.

Or more likely lose it all and have to work again.

My take is the opposite of yours. The guy loves SV culture. Most of the article is a humble-brag about it. His problem is that $60m is not enough to be an important player in that …

Thankyou. It's a relief to know that other people share my opinion after reading this appalling article. The author is too dumb to even effectively disguise the extent to which he …

With that money, I'm sure the author will find a trophy wife, despite his personality flaws. It feels like that might all be part of the plan for his "next chapter" after leaving h…

I guess their annual profit growth is not enough ;-) What irritates me the most is the way they are still describing it as free to sellers when in reality sellers will have to eat …

In reality I think the seller will eat this fee by having to reduce the selling price. But your point remains.

In the UK, ebay will add 75p plus 4% to private seller prices. Somehow they still describe their service as free to private sellers.

What makes you think he is flaunting his wealth? Maybe he is just showing this implementation to help people with ideas. And saying you won't check responses to your comment is pur…

Sorry to be that guy, but this site is terrible to navigate as a non-French speaker. I'm not sure it would be that great as a French speaker. I've seen online archives from other M…

I feel like we didn't really need you to explain that to us.

Good point and yet another indication that the sign was created by a numbskull.

Well done, one of the least accurate statements I've ever read on HN.

This is a nice idea. The problem is longevity. I'd be willing to bet this product disappears after a few years (best case scenario) and you are left with no ability to buy new head…

Good article from an intellectual curiosity perspective. I use the Philips Sonicare brushes, although I've been using 3rd party heads for years due to the cost difference (3X cheap…

Totally off topic comment. Why are you here?

An ambitious experiment on a Swiss mountaintop has demonstrated that a laser beam also can help guide the path of lightning, extending the effectiveness of the Franklin rod high in…

“You get the tissue from a tumour, sequence it and then over a six-week period of time you manufacture a vaccine that matches the top 10 to 20 mutations,” she said. Bauman said the…

It would be very interesting to see the funding sources of this journal and whether plastic manufacturers are contributors. The plastics industry has created the myth of plastic re…

Really, I thought she removed the titles. Where is the story about her regranting them?

I hate to say it but that is one of the dumbest things I've ever read.
