Amazed this is being discussed! I’ve only consumed hacker news via rss for maybe 15 years and I guess I didn’t know there was another way to read it at this point :)
“in cities where the hotel business is very active” I really agree with my understanding of the comment referenced in #3. I understood it as whole apartment rental vs hotel. Not room in apartment vs hotel. I would assume seriously cash constrained people would simply opt for room in apartment, which could be a nice deal. but for those who actually need a whole private apartment for some reason, the difference between that price and a nice hotel just isn’t enough to offset the roll of the dice aspect of Airbnb. City specific and imho, but I’d agree it’s accurate for nyc pretty generally.
Yeah +1 on version control being a dream. If real, functional version control for any DAW in the manner it sounds like you have in mind exists I will start making music with DAWs again!
