I remember once watching an interview with Travis talking about pitching Uber to Benchmark, and he talked about how they wouldn't let him leave the office until they agreed on terms. eerily similar battle going on now

It'd be funny if Pichai was like "okay damore supporters, what are you going to do? use bing? good luck avoiding google products on the internet LOL"

Agreed, but they'll get more funding. the big thing is, keep the support of your constituents and you'll keep getting funding. Travis offended and insulted the drivers, while Lyft is chugging along quietly. As long as people have

It's super easy to look back and think, "it really doesn't matter where you went to school." and it's true, I've met people who went to no-name schools and get employed at great companies. But put yourself into

This is the height of stupidity. If you absolutely refuse to use any products built by C-suite execs that advise and/or support Trump, then go live as a hermit in the wilderness. edit: Uber/lyft are built by smart and motivated te

Yea. Whoever runs for the dem nomination and wants to beat trump or pence (if he gets impeached) shouldn't even bother visiting blue states. Spend the entire campaign talking to voters in the rust belt.

>I find it depressing that people don't spend any time verifying stories and separating facts from fiction. I would classify the #deleteuber event as a form of fake news. The worst part is, this problem will only continue. It's

"I'm #deletingUber to show how anti-Trump I am!" uses Peter Thiel backed Lyft instead funny thing is, Trump supporters are now deleting Lyft in favor of uber. nobody does an ounce of research anymore.

lol, I have no idea after what we witnessed this past election, why Zuck is interested in potentially pursuing a political position. perhaps he'd still have access to FB data? if so, what would be the legal ramifications? I mean facebo

obviously a biased piece to make snap and spiegel look bad. the product is great, even if it's garbage on android. but it's really no secret that spiegel is arrogant and it shows. He pressured his rich parents to buy him nice cars

agree with everything you said. there's this demonization of wall street and financial institutions as if it's a brain drain to make money. what does that make the millions of ad tech and food delivery startups then? its the backb
