Hey HN, this is Linus from LinusandLevi, a technology-first travel guide.

We use Google Maps a lot, and created this platform out of a desire to find a place to buy and sell human-curated spots. You know, the hype places that AI would never know about.
DollarMaps is a marketplace where users can upload their pins on Google maps, which would then be available for purchase by other users. The platform would take a 30% fee on all sales, with the remaining 70% going to the map creator.
I personally believe this platform could be a great curated resource for travelers or people at home who are looking for new and unique places to go. It would also provide a way for local experts to earn money from their work.
I'm still in the early stages of development, but I'm looking for feedback on this idea. I'm particularly interested in hearing from people who love to travel and tour agencies about what features they would like to see in this platform.
If you're interested in learning more about this project, or just want a free code, please feel free to contact me at [email protected].
I personally enjoyed the flexibility of the "at-will" job.
I grabbed a position at a Minnesota warehouse as a post-college graduate with no fulltime job. Kinda just wandered in off some job posting online and they just brought me on.
Feels like people just don't want to mess with a good thing tho? A lot of my friends came from super different walks of life, but almost all unanimously enjoyed coming in for shifts and shooting the shit with their friends. Might just be a perception that change means that things will get worse and no one wants that.
