Can you post the conversation with all personal information redacted, please? Very curious to see how this went down.

You can make great money with this method. It’s called buying low and selling high. It’s how the majority of non-leveraged investors make their fortunes. Just need to wait for the next down cycle. Everything is cyclical.

Do not listen to these people who constantly tell you to “just invest now, it’ll average out, etc”. Go with your gut. Cash is a position. Know when and how to use it to your advantage.

When I vet candidates I do an image search on their profile photo, look at their resume (and other projects they’ve done on the platform), along with the number of hours worked on the platform. Focusing only on a rating system is short-sigh

Aside from 3/4 of your post being a gigantic ad about your own platform (which if you ever reached the scale of Upwork, I guarantee you’d run into the same issues you mention), how is it really a race to the bottom? You give the price

This won’t work. Here is why: I tried the same thing with /r/lifeprotips. I created that subreddit YEARS ago and initially wanted to build the website for it. I populated all the good life hacks that I found throughout the interne

Hot tip? How does this solve anything? People who work at big tech companies migrate to Oakland pushing those who have been there out by driving rents higher. And you think those companies will forfeit their offices in the city/SV? May

Came in here to give a shoutout to SA and the goon squad. Also Offtopic housed a lot of creativity in the early days. After all, that’s how I co-created the 2g1c website.

Quite poetic that a Google exec talking about the issue she's contributed to (high rents/housing prices) is complaining about it and blaming the failure of her business on it. Survival of the fittest. Plenty of great restaurants i
