I suspect as part of being on door dash the businesses agree they can use their trademarks. Door dash seem to be very good at getting large chains onboard, I wonder if this is part of it. Most small restaurants last less than a year, with t

Expedia gets away with charging 20% and hotel chains are (or at least were) pretty powerful businesses. The sales funnel is pretty valuable, and they’ll cut you off/derank you if you undercut. There is also a contract but I don’t think

While I somewhat agree (WA also has a silly slideshow alleging to be a dashboard with no goals on it) NY has completely failed it’s residents, while the Western Pact states have not. I suspect the reality is these goals are nonsense and jus

States should have let the feds make this decision. The states who hate the feds (california, washington, new york) are also the ones who have the trickiest political decision to make, as reopening in dense cities is always going to be a tr

I would focus on the actual words and actions of decision makers at the state and federal level. The communication and collaboration is happening, agreed it’s still reactive. At this point the media is in an abusive relationship with their

I know it’s hard to believe but the regime (who any lift in sanctions would have to flow through) hates America enough to kill their own people. https://twitter.com/ap/status/1241658649224925184?s=21 Aid is the on

Governments have more fiscal freedom to give out loans than grants. Many of the prior bailouts were also loans (at terms that no bank would offer hence the bailout bit). Businesses should take advantage of these, and a restaurant operating

Would love to hear more on this. Official wording is something like “there have been no documented cases of transmission through food or food packaging” however it seems impossible to actually trace transmission anyway.

Such a bailout is feasible. During the financial crisis houses were physically built and purchased without enough people with the income to cover the loan. The difference here is that there is no underlying financial issue. People will stil

Rules like this dont need to be enforced (or even enforceable) because by and large the community is onboard. Ie if Canlis, a Seattle institution ,was seen as looking for loopholes and risking lives it would be the end of their entire busin

Tech media knows the average person doesn’t understand the whole Alphabet/Google thing (and lets be honest in 2020 no one really understands it as the founders have left and Sundar is CEO of both ). So they make a deliberate decision t

Coronavirus started in a country with universal healthcare. The only way to actually prevent the spread of this type of disease is independent of government - changing personal behavior.

Food itself is meant to be safe. So as long as you wash your hands right before eating this doesn't seem any less safe. I'd like to understand how eating food prepared elsewhere is safe though as it seems like the perfect delive

I think it's just more private sector reaction than government reaction, which reflects differences between the regions in general. Ie Germany has banned mass gatherings in most states, which the US has not done. The situation is very

These graphs suck, but it looks like last quarter was a much lower decrease than the past. That doesn’t fit the articles argument that CPC is falling off a cliff and google is trying to hide it.
