You're not wrong. But there's a tradeoff between creating a cinematic experience (which really does resonate with people in a strong way) and adhering to standard methods. We debated both approaches and went with this one, in-part

As someone who had input on the website, I can say we're very concerned about that and aiming to fix it as soon as possible. Honestly, we just didn't get it right before the launch.

This reminded me of a game of capture the flag I played also in deep New England snow, with just a few friends, but over maybe a half-mile schoolyard with various buildings and playing fields. Long periods of silence and slow creeping punct

Yeah, this is sad to see. It's difficult for people who don't design software to imagine just how confusing and manipulative payment interfaces can be made.

Wow! Music recommenders come up every once in awhile on HN and they're almost alway unusable for underground music. Aside from not recognizing some of the names I tried, this one does quite well. It just needs quick links to listen to

Williamsburg is more than lame. It's surreal. Sit on Bedford and watch people for an hour sometime. Makes me feel like I'm in a simulation.
