AirBNB had its place and time, but it’s over. Had a lovely stay at a Hyatt last night, left trash in the can, towels on the ground, and am confident my corporate overlord isn’t going to light me up with a guest review video. A professional exchange of goods for money. The AirBNB hosts did this to themselves and the platform lost control long ago.
its just bonkers the new policy @airbnb is trying to put in place. Putting the dishes in the dishwasher, taking out the trash, pulling the sheets off the bed....they are just standard things any normal person would do when staying at a house. Why wouldn't a host be allowed to say that?

The big disconnect on Airbnb cleaning requirements stems from a bunch of ‘hosts’ who got sold a passive income real estate owner dream & found out hospitality is the reality.
Asking a guest [paid or unpaid] to take the trash out and strip the linens off the beds is terribly gauche.

Airbnb owners are my favorite breed of “entrepreneurs” because they’re running service businesses but think they’re real estate moguls who discovered an infinite money glitch.
Your customer base is shitting on you saying Airbnb host demands are insufferable.
But instead of listening to the market they will just complain to daddy Airbnb about the mean guests (their paying customers)
Marriott hotels for me 7 days a week and twice on Sundays.

Tell them to hire a cleaning service like every other home owner does. Your guests are not your employees. Y’all tried to destroy the hospitality industry not realizing you gotta do the hospitality part to compete with them. Now you got a second mortgage and no guests. 😭
🚨 #BREAKING: Airbnb hosts threaten to sue the company after it banned mandatory dishwashing, deep cleaning, and home improvement services be performed by guests.

You know what Hilton can't do? Give me a rating as a guest. You know why? Because I'm the customer. LOL
Fuck your youth hostel squatter house.

Everyone who says "why don't the AI companies work on things that are actually good for humanity?" - well, this is the sort of thing we *were* working on before ChatGPT came out and everyone dropped everything to compete with that instead.
Google Deepmind (FNV3) CRUSHED the forecast for #Isaias up to 11 days in advance. It picked up some appreciable signal on September 23, locked in on the exact landfall location4 days before it happened, and nailed the peak intensity consistently 3 days before it happened. A new age of forecasting is upon us.

No. They were designed so we don’t have another Portsmouth, another Blackburn, another Leeds, another Bury etc which is why the PREMIER LEAGUE (as in the MAJORITY of clubs) voted it in
Football didn’t start in 2009. The “Red Cartel” had success long before that and it wasn’t based on hyperinflation
Besides since the rules came in, Liverpool, Arsenal and United combined have won a measly 5 PLs
Quit this farce

If I was Man City’s lawyer I’d have gone with the irrefutable evidence first…

Eject the owners.
Strip titles.
Tax the ownership sale.
Points deduction for 10 years.
And let the rest of the PL sue the carcass.

Man City’s Disguised Funding Scheme:
Sponsorship Fees:
Season - Total (Actually Paid)
2009/10 - £27.0m (£4.5m)
2010/11 - £41.25m (£12.75m)
2011/12 - £86.75m (£16.0m)
2012/13 - £121.75m (£16.0m)
2013/14 - £127.5m (£16.0m)
2014/15 - £123.2m (£16.0m)
2015/16 - £136.17 (£16.0m)
2016/17 - £140.59 (£11.0m)
2017/18 - £145.73m (£11.0m)
Total - £949.94m (£119.25m)
So sponsors were only liable for the £119.25m total figure, with the £830.69m additional shareholder funding disguised as ‘commercial partner revenue’.

When I wrote about this image rights sham for The Independent in 2018, Manchester City threatened to sue us and demanded I tweet out a personal apology on here. We fought them. They did not sue us.
City's sham is confirmed by the Premier League today independent.co.uk/sport/foot…

Gary Neville & Jamie Carragher complained more about Nicolas Jover standing in the technical area for set pieces than they have about Manchester City being found guilty of 114 financial breaches, by the way. It should tell you everything you need to know.
