I see a lot of design and features here cribbed directly from my company, EventGeek.com. Why don’t you identify yourself online?

Check out EventGeek.com, this company is basically a copycat

Yeah, hello? This is the most atypical model possible for older tech workers. A hugely successful hospitality CEO joins a tech startup disrupting the global hospitality industry. How is that experience instructive for anyone except Chip Conley? Emotional intelligence in Mr. Conley's world apparently doesn't require any sense of irony. How hospitable.

Try Vegas.

Compared to most American cities, SF is pretty bikeable.

Of course I want it to be better as an SF biker myself, but still it's pretty good compared to the norm.

SF is a small city, relatively bike friendly city. Most residents who would bike around own their own bike. Tourists could use them but why would they when the main tourist zone is easily walkable, Uber is cheap to get elsewhere and the hills deter biking anyway.

You've got an inverse situation in NYC where the bike share became part of the point-to-point transit system, covering a huge area. You can't bring a bike on the NYC subway and you wouldn't want to anyways. Residents overwhelmed the rideshare the first few years. Adventurous tourists used it a lot too.

This works great for coupon seekers for SaaS and eCommerce businesses too.

The timing here is just way too coincidental. Coming at a fresh nadir in Uber's standing in the tech industry, the week after Fowler's post.

For how long did Google know Levandowski had swiped its secrets?

This is how PR war is waged.

Is this a joke? Most articles on HN are not technical.

Ma makes a good point, but he's implicitly saying the China's authoritarian regime wouldn't have lost the money as "free" market actors did in the US.

Sure, fine, but most Chinese would trade that money for American political freedoms and economic opportunities in a heartbeat.

What do poets know? Wit? Is this an AI bot feedlot?

What is it?

Selfycart's valuation just skyrocketed.
