jnyst1985··on Stripe acquires Clerky
Stripe buying founder relationships at incorporation… smart move I guess?
jnyst1985··on The renter-owner wealth gap is wider than ever, as many are priced out of buying
This is the way
jnyst1985··on To recruit teachers, school districts are building homes
Who eats the loss if home values fall before the resale restriction lifts?
jnyst1985··on Shopify says AI search is driving more traffic and sales, not replacing Google
AI-referred traffic usually shows up as “direct” in analytics, so a claim like this is hard to verify without real attribution instrumentation…
jnyst1985··on A Fed official is asking whether AI is becoming 'too big to fail'
Isn’t that what they said about every bubble?
jnyst1985··on Bending Spoons makes first post-IPO acquisition with $1.3B Airtable deal
Meetup users were sunk-cost locked in. Airtable’s buyers already have easy alternatives… so that price-hike playbook carries real churn risk imo.
jnyst1985··on Reddit Stock Collapses 23% as AI Eats Away at User Growth
The only communities I still actively follow are football/soccer related. Not much slop there… yet.
jnyst1985··on AI financial advice is surprisingly good, especially if you ask right questions
Just goes to show how bad the general advice you get from internet strangers really is…
jnyst1985··on Working from home? That will be extra. Renters rage over new fee
I don’t understand. If you’re home more, you’re already likely to pay more in utilities. But now landlords want to charge more for “wear”? Sounds like greed to me.
jnyst1985··on Kalshi attacks a Wisconsin law banning election bets as 'voter suppression'
Same playbook used by BNPL and neobanks…
jnyst1985··on Brazilian farmers tokenized dairy cows to get loans, bypassing bank limits
Wait - is this finally crypto’s mass adoption event we’ve all been waiting for?
jnyst1985··on Stripe in talks to buy OpenRouter for ~10B
Smart move, I imagine OpenRouter’s business model is very appealing to Stripe.
jnyst1985··on Stripe closed my account with a 0.18% dispute rate
Wow. That sounds horrendous. Sounds like an AI was deployed and there’s no human to take accountability. Time to find an alternative I guess…
jnyst1985··on Alphabet's cash burn raises alarm for Big Tech as AI spending climbs
Sounds like Google is the only honest company in the market. Cash burn alone doesn’t mean much, it’s free cash flow vs return on invested capital that’s the real signal imo.
