They're trying to become too big to fail, but aren't quite there yet. Essentially they're undercutting all competitors by artificially keeping fares very low and subsidizing drivers. Subsidies were the primary source of the

A single leak will often embolden others to follow suit, it's somewhat typical.

Yeah they've slashed fares and a huge part of their losses are driver subsidies. It's all a farce.

Instead of rate limiting you'd be better off making it a two-key operation once you hit X threshold. Jr admin can delete 10, but the boss needs to confirm a deletion of 100.

Uber's pricing is definitely too low. I paid $3.75 for a 20 minute ride at one point and decided to stop using it entirely because that just seems like exploitation. I'm completely willing to pay more to give workers better wages.

Uber is Uber because of software. Take it away and you have a cab company that exploits contractors (which based on the history of cab companies is really saying something). The last Uber I ever took was a 20 minute drive that cost me $3.75

How is Twitter being monetized? Facebook? Uber? Instagram? Say what you will about valuations in general, but Snapchat is rare in that they've produced a physical product and set some sort of future goal in hardware (specifically camer

DVR functionality? Thinking this is more of a Hulu competitor with live events rather than simply an antenna... probably more of a viable alternative for local sports fans who want to ditch cable?

Open up the API again and let third parties integrate live-streaming features. If you have thousands of people already watching and livetweeting a new Netflix release, facilitate that and make it easier. Imagine if everyone could watch the

Took me a while to figure out what this was — seems to be a way to organize a lot of disparate pieces and shortcuts into a project dashboard?

Probably an extreme case of paranoia on my part, but Domino's should probably close this as a vulnerability, right? If I knew someone's phone number I could potentially use this to impersonate a delivery driver to gain access to s

Turn on 2-stage authentication and use Last Pass or a similar password manager. I can't really fathom how someone would have gained access to my account with those steps in place (and honestly if they did, I wouldn't even be mad b

The solution to cab racism was a lie anyway, I've been kicked out of an Uber multiple times because of "I don't go to that neighborhood" (which happens to be primarily black)

No. If my peers find it acceptable that I am detained indefinitely simply for not unlocking my phone, then throw away the key because all is lost.

I am so tired of the "yeah that's nice but what about X" posts on the internet. This foundation focuses on making life better for poor children and that's a worthwhile thing to focus on. If you actually read the full tex

They can detain me indefinitely if they want, I will never give my pin to border security. I'm not going to bend to this bullshit by not carrying a phone.
