The SEC can't declare everything a security, then enforce it without providing evidence or guidance to companies trying to be regulated, and then further make videos on twitter declaring that it's as easy as signing a form to be r

This is such a farce of an article. "Coinbase has taken an increasingly defiant stance, publicly criticizing the SEC and urging regulators to write new rules for crypto rather than enforce existing ones." No, they're asking t

Your explanation is trying to insinuate that it’s because they’re black, but they deliver to black neighborhoods inside SF limits, therefore you can’t just say “oh they’re racist”. If my original example is what we went with, you could beca

So in your opinion contractors don't exist? Because what you're telling me is if I want to hire a contractor and they say no, and I decide I won't use them again in the future, then I'm all of a sudden an employer. Maybe

There could be many factors to that though. I mean first thing to ask would probably be did the amount of drivers increase substantially in the last 8-12 months? If so it would be just like any other market force; more available contractors

I mean this proves my point? If you're trying to point out the one part that's blue on that map to the right of 280, I'll point you to the multiple pockets of blue inside their delivery zones

If you're not able to choose and reject tasks (rides), then that would make Uber an employer. The reality is they can (and do), so it goes against this whole quote. "You are not an independent contractor if you perform services th

East of 280 doesn't really denote anything about danger to me, as I don't recall those areas being any more dangerous than the rest of SF. If they deliver to Tenderloin and not there I highly doubt it's for the reason you

Except the drivers can reject trips. Uber can just choose not to use them for future assignments, e.g what they're doing with suspending accounts for rejecting too many rides. They're basically saying they don't want to work

I lived next to it and had to walk through there all the time at night, so I'm pretty aware of the risks there, as well as the demographic. Uber would 100% get labeled racist if drivers never went there.

> Accounts are suspended for repeatedly not driving to dangerous areas. Do you not see why this is a policy? If you're in SF for example and drivers refuse to pick up anyone from the Tenderloin, and the Tenderloin is predominately o

Yellen has been intimately involved in the process so I don't think there's too much of a difference right now, especially since they all had a zoom call including hundreds of senators at like 1 in the morning over the weekend.

"Objective fact" lol please. Not an objective word in this sentence that you can back up with literally anything. Or we can just take your hyperbole and apply it to literally anything that has any negative sides to it.

It seems you don't read and are the one that is fucking obtuse. Your link says 25% (not a larger percentage) agree with some "central tenets" of QAnon (as do 16% of the population as a whole), the central tenets that is menti

Citation for that 99% figure? If it's anecdotal then I will give you my anecdote as a non Christian that I see 99% of churches doing charitable works.

QAnon nuts don't represent all conservatives, just as the people inciting riots and looting during BLM don't represent all liberals. Black and white thinking is stupid in this day and age yet it seems to persist

Pretty sure it originally had FTX and crypto flipped, which is why my reply made sense. At the moment, yes it’s ironic that this happens in crypto even though crypto’s main (and maybe only) strength is that it isn’t beholden to a centralize
