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

This.

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.

Hell of a story.

Very cool, Lyon. Sending you an email now.

Our website is admittedly focused on marketers, but the product works great for event planners too. We have a scheduling feature which breaks down where each participant should be, min-by-min. I'd say share this screenshot first (http://imgur.com/of3Sn49) and then give the free trial a try. The benefits should be obvious in the first few mins.

Partial list:

-Budgeting -Travel planning -Shipment tracking -Google maps -Time zones -Min-by-min scheduling -Calendar integration -Loose-knit in/external teams -Vendor collaboration, invoices -Event templates -Event-based pricing -ROI analytics

Basically traditional project management tools are set up for knowledge projects. Events have lots of contingencies, like physical space and scheduling, that make them difficult to manage with generic pm tools.

Hi, we actually have quite a few planners doing festivals, galas and the like. Please check out our free 2 week trial and let me know if it would work for you. I'd be happy to give you a discount for planning only a few events + your feedback. My email is alex@eventgeek.com.

Thanks!

Heh, it's true. I'm biased since I used to work at Squarespace and we just used their template. We've been way more focused on messaging, customer acquisition and product. Eventually we'll have a beautiful customized website too.

Thanks Adam! Hope all is well.

This was my first reaction as well. Where was the CFO perspective when they put together this hiring plan?

Incredible that they were able to predict areas of the brain that would light up.

It's the impact of mobile.

Thanks. Would be awesome if Clerky and Stripe combined forces to provide a one-stop shop for US startups for incorporation docs and setting up bank accounts.

I'm wondering how Atlas compares to Clerky. You mentioned 83b forms, default allocations, and foreign entity registration... Anything else to consider?

In terms of the startup incorporation, how does this compare to Clerky? As a pre-incorporation startup based in CA, which is preferable?

You are right, but this is Hacker News, where technical intelligence is high and cultural intelligence scarily scarce.

Just want to say that we're a very happy Amplitude customer and have been since early on.
