Sure, I mean that Uber can engage in whatever cool tech projects that they want and publish whatever blog posts that they want.
This documented project's usefulness to the tech community is totally independent from its balance sheet. It's not like NOT publishing this eng blog post makes some material difference in Uber's long run ability to turn a profit...
