Re:Ask HN: What do you hate most about renting a car? on Friday October 24, 2014 @09:19PM (#8506832)
@Ryan - I flew into LAX last week and went to try out Silver Car for the first time. I just needed a car for the day. Pickup was around 7 AM and I was going to be returning it the following day at 1 PM. The app quoted me $200 since it considered that a full two day rental ($89/day + fees). In my case, I wouldn't have opted in for the $28/day insurance either.

I don't really see the value in your site - personally wouldn't use it.

But if you guys are stuck on the idea, I'd take out the big block of text that reads: "What if on December 21st 2012 the world really came to an end?"

and replace it with something a bit more to the point about what you guys are doing.

Re:Entrepreneurs Starting Up With Fewer Employees on Friday October 05, 2012 @12:11PM (#4617450)
I've always found this interesting. Their are so many successful startups you don't hear about that outsource most of their development. Does a power-monster startup really need hundreds of silicon valley engineers? Obviously talent brings you further, but what about for the tedious development tasks and leaving the problem solving to your founders?
