TECHIES ARE RENTING THEM

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

A pod is a group house structured like a pod hotel - a type of sleeping space invented in Japan designed to cater to travelers on a budget. A recent post by a tech entrepreneur went viral after he posted pictures of the pod he was living in for $700 per month in San Francisco. While the room is very small, it allows the startup founder to live close to the action. Pictures of the pod are available in the article.
