This statement is laughably naive... crypto markets are quite literally a wild west free for all. We're going to see crypto markets go through many of the same lessons that traditional markets did and slowly relearn why we have regulat

Uber doesn't only operate in that country. When you operate at the scale and international scope that uber does, economic warfare, espionage, and corrupt governments are a real thing. I hate Uber but I don't think this is somethin

One major concern about "turning bottom-tier jobs into more productive roles" is about the number of jobs. If 10,000 cashier jobs gets turned into 1,000 maintenance and guidance jobs, you've still put 90% of your workforce ou

Especially if your full-time job contract specifically prohibits you from getting a second job or doing side jobs. If the company is buying all of your working time then they had damn well better be paying you at least a living wage.

Northern and DLR are like right next to each other underground... the longest will be going from Waterloo & City or the Central line, across to the District line. https://www.ianvisits.co.uk/blog/wp-content/upl

The train slows down between Hyde Park Corner and Green Park as it passes through the now closed Down Street station. The platforms of Down Street have been bricked up but otherwise the station is still there. You can tell you're passi

For starters, there is no contract negotiation and they have no say in it. Everything is dictated by Uber as if they were the employer. They're part-time employees with flexible/voluntary scheduling.

If they’re only profitable because they are exploiting their workforce essentially evading labour laws, then good, they should be upended.

Is it really so confusing? I mean, if you understand + for integers and for strings and for lists, and you can understand why this is basically the same operation for all of them, congratulations! you know what a monoid is.

You seem to be confused... your words mean something other than what you think they mean. You wrote that Google does not have the "whole IP". You are saying that there is something that Google doesn't have access to? If Googl

I feel like this needs to be repeated over and over. In theory, encryption and smart contracts and bitcoin are mathematically sound and "you can't argue with the math!" But the theory is written into real programs by humans,
