I think everyone is missing a key possible outcome here (regarding the startup business model). Tantalising users for a services via cheap prices can actually mean users change their behaviour and preferences. This can then mean that when p

I really dislike using calories when comparing veggies and fruits as it feels like the complete etogn format. Why not use grams?

Why do you think people who work from home would consume less? Where does that excess money go to?

What are you trying to say here? You seem to be agreeing with the OP. Different people like different ways of working and we should have possibilities for both.

Yeah, once sun goes down it's actually quite cold. Tho depends how close to sea you are as well. Weekends it might be that you can actually enjoy being outside.

Is this not exactly the opposite? They try to bet that they can predict the occurrence of something better than what you can.

That's still not a flywheel, that's a network effect. Like I said these are set terms from academia for these specific meanings. Like I'd aid flywheels have always meant energy storage mechanisms that don't reach 100% e

This is not a fly wheel, this is economies of scale. There are established words for these things. Why do we invent new ones that don't make sense? Flywheel output less than the input is. Why would we use that word?

Yeah I thought this article would be about companies that just barely make back their marketing spend, but then in the long-term reach success from being big/getting brand value.

Anyone have actual sources noting that this "wumao" thing actually exists and isn't just a slander phrasing against CCPs supposed censorship efforts?

That does not mean it doesn't lose money. You're talking about revenue.

I have no idea how you can even say that. It's not even CLOSE to London. If you compare how close you can be to the city center, the rent prices are completely different. I think even Malmo city center rents are higher.

It's pretty common actually. They will delete all your data, but that requires strong authentication, which government ID is. That's how it works with gdpr in 90% of cases.

Not sure what i'm missing here. You clearly did not read the subreddit rules before posting. However the fact that you have no recourse after being banned other than debating a mod, that's a clear issue.

You mean that at the start they paid drivers a lot, because there weren't that many, and now that there are lots of drivers available, they reduced the pay? Sounds like supply and demand working as it should to me. If you want a job wh

25% is just their standard, it can change alot. And it does not account for those bonuses you mention. I'm not sure why you you're saying bonuses are a bad thing? People get paid extra to fulfill metrics?

You have to understand that gig economy has huge outliers on both sides of the curve. Some people work 12h shifts on this, and rack up all kinds of bonuses.

It's the paradox that has been in popular debate since "Uber can't make profit" narrative got started 5 years ago. It's absolutely bonkers, and even smart people join in on this fallacy. A consumer complaining about
