What would be the alternative for small companies who want to have some kind of space to co-locate? If they feel like they can't afford something like We Work, they probably aren't willing to commit to a dedicated office space. Al

How is that different from spreading false information through newspapers when that was the primary source of people's information?

Agreed. I understand giving most organizations a 30 day grace period, but it would be great if they made an exception and cut off such a clear-cut offender immediately.

Summer is generally the busiest time of year for real estate purchases and Christmas/New Years is generally the slowest.

The system is a CYA policy for YouTube. It wasn't designed for that. Copyright holders just saw it as an opportunity to abuse a system for some extra cash. The lawsuits would be unlikely to hold up in court.

That would be very impractical in the real world. How would you prove that 99% of the suits would be thrown out without having 100 trials?

I'd imagine there is significant value in capturing small customers with a free product who end up growing into their enterprise products.

That is true. But it is the current state of the world and GDPR enables people to more effectively weaponize that.

I'm assuming by AI you mean adjusting the prices based on supply and demand? What do you suggest as an alternative? If prices don't adjust accordingly, you simply won't be able to get a ride.

You aren't going to rent a car to take a fifteen minute trip across town, so that isn't really comparable. And yes, they would be a taxi service. But they would be a taxi service with lower costs since they don't need pay f

Do you really feel that people here don't allow opposing viewpoints? IMO that is an area where Hacker News shines, especially in comparison to sites like Reddit. I rarely see, respectful, well thought out counter-viewpoints downvoted s

At the end of the day look where the major banks ended up after the crisis. Mostly unchanged. They knew what they were doing. It's just that what they were doing wasn't in the public's interest.

If there is no inherent conversion rate then how does the government define how much you owe?

Especially with voice searches. People are searching entire sentences rather than specific keywords which are much more likely to be unique.

I don't disagree with your main point, but spreading knowledge and making money aren't mutually exclusive.

What stops creators from uploading to both? Sure, they miss out on some revenue when people watch their video on Vimeo rather than YouTube. But once they are getting a significant portion of their views on another platform, that would lik

The majority of companies that IPO aren't profitable at the time they IPO. This is nothing new.

There are plenty of people who are on low/no carb diets. Keto being a notable example.

There are a lot of mouths to keep shut on the inside. If anyone responsible for building the fake delete tool spoke out, Google would be in trouble.

The stigma isn't necessary to continue working towards a cure.

Whether I'm going through the terrible process to pay $20 vs $20,000 doesn't make a difference. How would a lower tax rate improve anything in this scenario?

Yes, but you are purchasing the magazine, movie, or service. If you are paying Facebook specifically to remove ads from an otherwise free product, it's much harder to justify injecting ads anyways. And if for whatever reason they do, y

Non-compete. Not NDA.

I skimmed the document and missed that part. That's disappointing. Why bother making the distinction? What's different about salaried employees that they should be subject to non-competes but hourly workers shouldn't? I unde

Not being concerned about where a file comes from sounds like a convenience to developers. It's like a file repository. I don't know why that implies Google is scheming to further integrate their cloud services.

I don't really see a reason they needed to be super transparent about that fact. It doesn't really have a significant security impact. It's just a small QOL improvement they implemented.

Ideally competition would result in another player coming in and producing the cure. Since the non-cure treatment is already dominated by another player, you could make some money curing people versus no money trying to develop another no

Sure, but if you are an 'indie hacker', you don't need to make anywhere near $350k/mo to have a very comfortable life.
