As I said, my password has not been used anywhere else. haveibeenpwned.com comes back empty for it.

Can you provide a link to that listing? I am always looking for apartments with a view so I would like to see how booking one can go so wrong.

I'm confused what you are trying to build here. A site that gives you a list of apartments with a view for every major city.

Interesting. I wonder what those "checked for 100+ things that guests told us they love" are. Shouldn't the general quality of the listing already be apparent from the ratings? I'm always looking for apartments with a vi

So you first recursively read the code and the code of all the dependencies? And then pin it? That sounds like a lot of work. Compared to copying/writing 30 lines. How do you know the pinned version and it's dependencies do not ge

It's not about auditing every line of code. It's about a chain of trust. I can not imagine that the security of Facebooks servers is at the mercy of a chain of anonymous coders.

That sounds scary. That means the security of your system and data is at the mercy of all those maintainers? I can't imagine any big companies work like that. Execute code on their servers which is under the control of 'somebody f

what's the better way to do it copy & paste, or use a package manager When you add a dependency, how do you prevent the maintainer of the dependency or any sub- or sub-sub-...dependency to break your system in the fu

Yup. That's why I'll give them a list. So they can chose between the tower and the trees.

Is the direction important to you? Personally, I just want to be able to look over the city. And not have another house in front of me. At first I will simply go through all listings for each city manually. Looking at the photos and the rev

Thanks! The "One-Bedroom Apartment" here? https://www.booking.com/hotel/ph/30-cd-twin-oaks-place.html I wonder if one is guaranteed to get it with a view or it could happen that you book and end up in a

My 'plan' is very simple. It's just a list of links for each city. No community features or anything. Just the links to apartments that I myself found. Features could be added later. But the initial idea is to just put a list

Great! I'm happy I did not completely disgruntle you and you still speak with me. I can be way too undiplomatic at times. Small market + Hard problem sums up the responses here nicely. I like that! Because I'm not convinced the ma

Right now it seems that all you want to hear is 'it's a great idea!'. No! If there are counter arguments, I want to hear them! The more replies I get without counter arguments that convince me, the more I get th

Would love to see your site. If you want to get in touch - I have put my email on my profile.

"this would narrow your market down too much" How do you know? Can you quantify that somehow? "people with specific apartment demands > number of people who want an apartment with a view" The same could be said for ev

An example: Imagine these two predictors: Reality: 1 1 1 1 1 9 1 1 1 1 Predic1: 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 Predic2: 3 3 3 3 3 6 3 3 3 3 SumOfErrors(Predic1) is 16 SumOfErrors(Predic2) is 21 So Predic1 was better then Pred

TLDR: Because it gives more weight to one big error then to multiple small ones with the same sum. We want the errors to be noise and not systematic. Noise usually has a gaussian distribution. And in a gaussian distribution multiple small v

Can you quantify the small demand somehow? Is an apartment with a view not something many people want? When I look at r/digitalnomad, the top post right now is somebody showing of the view of their apartment. Booking.com has a filter &

I never use browser extensions because of the security and privacy problems. When you say 'most other users' - can you quantify that? If for example 99% of the world population does not care, that would still leave me with 76 mill

I understood that. But as I said, it's a misunderstanding. I am not thinking about a generalization. I am thinking about a site that lists apartments with a view. That's it. I wonder if that has enough merits to become a startup.

This is a misunderstanding. I would not gather data about bed size or shower type. All I want to do is assemble a list of top floor apartments with a view.

"Any user can simply opt out by unchecking the box" They should at least do it the other way round and have people opt in instead of opt out. Still I would prefer a distro that does not have such functionality in the first place.

by get 9y ago
I would just do what I already do. Look carefully at each apartment to see if it could have a nice view. I judge it by the photos, the description, customer reviews and Google street view. Only apartments that might have a nice view go into

Maybe your are right and it's something they don't talk about. But maybe we, the users, can have a discussion about it. I mailed them the last time I posted something. They unblocked the post then. But it feels a bit cumbersome to
