I haven't heard any reports of Plaid doing bad stuff with user transaction data, so I suspect there's a bit of paranoia in the comments here. On the other hand, there's an underlying (and valid) concern that handing over bank

See some of the AWS fees mentioned in the top comment on this thread. $300MM over 3 years is not a small amount of money. Not to mention the salaries you need to pay to stay competitive in the bay area, they seem to have a sizable headcount

The author mentions hiring a lot of good friends, so I assume they did it because they believed in him and the mission.

There's an activity feed, just like Facebook. Whenever you pay someone on Venmo the app will make a public post on your behalf, and any of your friends can see all of your purchases on the feed ("Bottomless mimosas", "Su

I'm pretty sure the author is a woman... the article says she got a hysterectomy, which is surgery to remove a uterus. (She also mentions her husband in the opening paragraph)
