Extroverts can also research, listen and adapt.

Ask HN: Payment processing for group purchases?

johnreagan — Sat, 24 Sep 2016 23:04:38 +0000

I'm working on an app that involves users pooling their money to make a purchase. Any thoughts on an approach to this problem or a payment processing company that handles this case so that I won't get hit with processing fees twice(once on the individual's contribution and again on the groups purchase)?

This will happen with Uber + self driving cars. Car capital will just concentrate, and we will all rent it went we need it from well organized network of company cars.

I think the advantage of these programs is the external motivation. Not everyone who wants to learn programming is internally motivated or disciplined enough to do it on their own.

It could be that they love programming but they learn best in the competitive interactive environment offered by a place like The Flatiron School. There is more than one way to learn programming and the ways are not hierarchical, one may work best for one person, but would fail miserably for another.
