Airbnb In Amsterdam

There is an obvious lack of data cleaning here. You can see from the first places drawn on the map that a lot of them are duplicated. I don't think that many people have multiple dwellings in the same area.

The original title does not contain "terryfing", so please remove that.

Also, I fail to see wha's so terrifying about that.

In 2015 it looks like 10-15 rentals a day.

How is this terrifying? Each one of those dots represents actual wealth being created.

Travelers are interested in easy, cute, short-term apartment rentals. I fail to see how this is even surprising.

The mega-trends happen whether you like them or not. Adapt or die.

I think I missed something. Why is this terrifying?

What's terrifying is how effective a click bait title is, even on HN.
