Doesn't matter if it's despised as long as it's accepted. Edit: To be clear, I am speaking from Uber's perspective.

I haven't seen a mechanism for lowering price without collective bargaining. That's why I see a single payer system as a must for the problem you've described here. I'd like to hear more alternative views on this though.

This is a stark contrast to what people felt was going to happen when Trump announced he was running. How could Mark Zuckerberg possibly win the presidency? All he has behind him is control of one of the most widely used information dissemi

I love it for organizing my personal todo lists and daily tasks, but I've had the same experience as you with trying to use it in a team setting. We use Trello, which isn't perfect either. I guess this is Asana's attempt at
