You never actually explained getting the 100 people. Just that eventually you hired a user acquisition team

This was always the idea. I remember Jason Calacanis saying on This Week In Startups months ago that Uber is in growth mode, eventually when push comes to shove they'll increase the price to get to profitability and have the market share to stick it out.

I use you.com. Best of the few I've tried. Can you please align the cards to be in the same row ? If you look up "access database spring" you'll see what I mean, 2 large empty rows with one result each that should be combined.
Any chance of business detail cards like google has (hours, map, address, reviews)?

I agree with most points here but surprised by "Musk is not a coder and has never worked for a company that develops code as a core business function". He was a part of x.com / PayPal

I've seen references to Benihana online or in American tv. Why does it warrant it's own punctuation here? "..attended my own birthday party. At Benihana."
I understand it's a Tepenyaki place which are expensive places to go to. Though the novelty wears off. Is it considered tacky in the states?

45% of my days salary just for being on call.
1.5x my hourly rate for any call outs.
2x my hourly rate for any call outs on weekends and bank holidays

I would prefer a slower/unrushed system without social interaction. I am a reader of HN.
Re:Lessons learned from migrating a native iOS app to Flutter

used ionic for some small stuff years ago. Kind of assumed it had lost the cross platform race considering how little I see about it. I thought React Native was the lead runner in the cross platform wars right now, anyone care to correct me or give me their take on where it's all at?
