Many companies that have virtual cards as a service are hesitant to give agent access until the company shows reliable volume. You could add it yourself to your agent or hire a human to take care of it.

Reading this part really made my head shake. Attacking a former intern like that, why would anyone want to intern there after this?

Given the news about how mining crypto is destroying the environment, was there any news similar to that when the personal computer started to be adopted in the masses?

This looks really good, thanks for building this. Based on my level of experience I just started getting system design questions in my interviews and haven't really succeeded in any of them. I'm going to share this with my friends preparing for interviews too.

We plan on using Tradier brokerage with the Tradier api.

In terms of envisioning, it would be more Jim Cramer type that would be more interested in this over Hedge Fund Managers, in an honest opinion.

Apply HN: Wevest – Replicate Trades Experts Make to Increase Success in Stocks

Wevest connects people to invest together and smarter. It allows you to replicate trades made by experts so people can skip the whole trial and error in the stock market. Once you attach your assets to an expert, it is all automated from there. When the trader you follow sells, you sell, all in real time. Unlike betterment, where they focus on long - term growth and competes with banks and mutual funds, our competitive edge goes by giving tools for a more aggressive investing approach by leveraging expertise of others.

Yeah I think that's the one! Wow good for them, I remember reading about them last year, then after that I never really heard about them again.

There was a startup that for $10,000 it was a third party option package that was self driving. I wonder how it is doing with all these car companies that create their own options for self-driving.

This is too bad, I feel sorry for the company in a way. This was a company I kept up with because it was fun seeing their growth. I didn't see the negative side of the culture until after Conrad stepped down and all hell broke loose.
