You need to reread what a network effect is. It's exactly what goes on in a ridehailing platform.

Could you link this "more and more data" ? As far as I know nothing substantial has been released. You should recheck your sources.

It's the complete other way around. Source: Lived in China, ask any Chinese person.

Just use telegram? Literally no differences, but even more ease of use.

The problem with this is twofold: 1. How do we define the "best" search engine? 2. How can we know that the only reason Google can keep being the best out of incumbents is because of past network value. e.g. if a competitor had ac

Where on earth do you live where things are this backwards?
847.
by Jommi 8y ago
No it doesn't. Not in mainland China. Who told you this?

Because it's still legal to use a kick scooter on the same pavements. Most countries have the law that e-scoots can be used on the pavements as long as you're going walking speed.

Sign-up is wildly different in different areas

Don't you get the cost as an upper and lower bound? Or is it one price upfront?
852.
by Jommi 8y ago
Yeah but it's still not honest to say you don't need to learn Chinese at all. I would say that you will need atleast 6 months to be able to live normally, 12 months to get respect in business meetings, 3-4 years to be understood

Chengdu would be quite an interesting pick. There's a lot of startup activity there for sure, and it's really far from Beijing.

Not true

VPN or V2RAY etc. Fix that issue. It's still excruciatingly slow tho.

But that's the thing, they need basic mandarin! Which is no easy task for sure.

Well. yeah if you aren't using any app to get a taxi, maybe. Still 90% of Taxis in big cities take card for sure. Even the more sketchy ones have the card machine, but it always seems to "not work" when needed...

This is especially funny in low google-activity/population areas, such as Finland, or even China. I've been able to create/edit/remove cafes, restaurants, roads and businesses by just filling a simple change form. In a f

In Finland there is no real differences between credit or debit

Go to any place in northern Europe and it's basically only card.

Red shell is gdpr compliant
862.
by Jommi 8y ago
Scum? You're trusting hundreds of companies with your data everyday already. Redshell is regulated by EU as a data processor just like these other services. Lack of transparency? Go check out redshell.io right now and see how they open

Could you rephrase that? This software allows companies to give measurable ROI to for example community events or streams. With this they can actually prove that by sponsoring a steamer they get X amount of game installs. Everyone wins from

So where do we draw the line? Is all analytics without permission not okay?

by Jommi 8y ago
If you read their site you would see that the information is not PI. It's just to match the two events.

Isn't this just beneficial for everyone? Why wouldn't it be okay?

Yes, it's not a comprehensive overview of everything the app and concept has. It's just an article exploring a cool new concept, and being positive about it. Yes, the price might change. But that also mean the service might change
868.
by Jommi 8y ago
Yeah, I agree completely. Especially as the parent company is named after a concept that they are trying to push as a general concept and not a brand.(MaaS, mobility as a service.) They should definitely be more transparent.
869.
by Jommi 8y ago
Which one?
870.
by Jommi 8y ago
Yeah it's abit of a fluff piece, but compared to stuff that comes out in the US scene everyday it's nothing. Can't we just once be positive? The app works, there are no lies in the article. Maybe if people in Finland were a b
