Airbnb S-1 6 years ago

Airbnb hosts do do some of this stuff - ie. 24/7 checkin is available if you filter for it, as well as other facilities.

But I do agree that it's becoming harder to justify Airbnb use. As it's popularity has risen, it feels like, what was once a cheap stay in someones house, is now the same price as a nice bed & breakfast. And with Hotel's seeing the lost footfall, the gap between a private room in a strangers home and a hotel room with much more privacy has become smaller and smaller.

I've used it every week for about 8 years now for my accommodation when working away but couldn't see using it much in the future

I really can't see what this has over Semantic at all - Flex, modular and clean design is just the tip of the iceberg. The only thing is its classes are often pretty verbose and it's almost like learning another language to get it to place nice sometimes.

If they're poor fakes, yes. But if they're like the ones mentioned in this article, there would be no way of telling without bringing a microscope with you.

F1 cars are rear wheel drive and still have to build their torque and power up the rev range and change gears.

Telsa is 4wd and has all it's torque and power from standing with no gears

My car has 1092nm of torque from about 1500rpm and it's mind-boggling... 10,000nm is hard to comprehend and surely more than enough to give the occupants some serious whiplash if not sat properly.
