So now they can't do surge pricing when it rains? The main reason I like Uber in NYC is because it is impossible to get a taxi when it's raining. Seems like this would ruin a big chunk of their value proposition.

I'm guessing this means apps from companies without any business model at all that are propped up entirely by VCs.

It's not semantics. If in 29.5 hours I make $119.6 million in revenue by selling $100 million in product, then it's going to take me a lot longer than 29.5 hours to pay off a $119.6 million debt.

You politely thank them for their time and immediately start looking for a new job. You have no reason to put up with that sort of a response in this job market.

Please justify the usage of the word "theft" to describe this if it is perfectly upfront about what it's doing. Surely you meant to say gambling.

I sent them 0.001 BTC and got 0.00256 in return over two transactions. Something screwy is definitely going on.

This is total linkbait. Neither the startup nor the programmer are named. The split between cash and equity in the mysterious programmer's compensation is not made clear. This entire article could be fabricated and there would be no wa
