I'm going to take a safe bet and guess that you are quite young. If you grew up in any past era where owning a physical 'thing' was the default, you naturally feel the inherent lac…

A really smart ad for a privacy focused company. I, for one, appreciated finding this on HN as it gives me ideas for my own company where data privacy is a core feature.

Hi Chris, question about a very minor part of your sales funnel. The question about sharing the customers photo & painting on your site defaults to YES (which is 'free') and offers…

Absolutely not the case. Here in Australia city and state hospitality organisations are very vocal in opposition to airbnb. The usual argument is why should they be paying to meet …

How can they advertise 6 to 12% annual returns (12%!!!) for lenders when 1) PeerStreet have to take out their 0.25-1% fee && 2) All of the Big Banks are offering home mortgage rate…
