the sillicon valley bubble of HN is sometimes hilarious.
the concept of a company providing shuttle bus service instead of just having proper public transport to bussiness parks is very weird when one thinks about it.
- ghaff 5y agoPublic transit, e.g. commuter rail, works well into a city with a public transit system. It works far less well into a distributed set of suburban/ex-urban industrial parks. I can get into our small city office with a short drive and a longish train trip. I pretty much have to drive to our suburban office.
- throwaway3699 5y agoIt is a bubble, but I get it because the default infrastructure is so bad. Everybody hopping in a car is just not a good solution.

- dmitrygr 5y agoIt is not Google's job to fix public transit in the Bay area. But given the lack of transit, if they don't provide shuttle service, many of their workers cannot work from the office. So not really a bubble as much as stating the fact.
