The vast majority of Uber drivers don’t want to be employees. They prefer working part time. Anything else?

The children ARE forced to work there. They are literally modern day slaves.

Please explain how Uber exploits their drivers?

Can you please stop with the false narrative that Uber is using VC money? They haven’t gotten any new investor money since pre-ipo several years ago. It’s a disingenuous lie to keep claiming “as long as VC money flows”. There isn’t and hasn

Except that the idea Uber is doing shitty things is strictly the narrative of those that want to see Uber fail. But it’s obvious drivers and customers find utility in working for Uber otherwise there are competitors they can hop to extremel

You don’t understand Uber’s business model. They want prices so low because that’s how they make money. Lower prices equals more rides. They know that the higher the prices the less overall rides they will get. You thinking that the goal is

I love it. So you’re comparing the experiences of real drivers who don’t hate it to bloggers who are making mathematical calculations and you take the word of the bloggers. That’s just about par for the course. “The poor dumb blue collar wo

I love people who somehow think that taxi industry is filled with clean, perfectly maintained cars, fairly paid workers with great benefits and just the epitome of great citizens without any corruption.

You’re not making any sense. If you’re an advertiser and you’ve been paying for ads, but 25% of the engagement was fake, you won’t ask for a refund? If you’re a new advertiser and you find a platform where 25 % of the engagement is bots, wi

You simply don’t know what you’re talking about. That’s not how the real world works.

Your argument doesn’t hold water. You can have a sense of the amount of bots but if it’s wildly off, then of course it’s going to be shocking.

Of course it makes sense. “Material” is a financial term that is used all the time. It’s not a surprising term at all and fits here. Twitter doesn’t have to be caught in a lie. They can just be caught with having a materially different numb

Read the letter from the lawyers. They gave Musk’s team limited access via api until a couple of days ago despite asking for it since may. The limited access was rate limited and had other restrictions. It’s obvious that with a rate limit t

Twitter can’t give Musk the data he needs to determine fake accounts. It’s obvious that while Twitter does some work to detect fake accounts, they probably only go after low hanging fruit. Twitter is balancing investment costs vs impact to

No that’s not what happened. Obama came up with a toothless proposal and once ACA was passed he didn’t push further because he didn’t want to piss of the AHA. So it languished for 6 years with no movement. Trump came in a added it with an e

I hate Trump and am glad he was voted out, but you have to give him his dues. This is 100% his doing, through executive action. The Dems could have done this but never did. It’s just another example of how neither side of the aisle is truly

For sensors, https://wirelesstag.net/ is rock solid. They even let you configure the bridge to push data internally in case the company ever goes bankrupt. The sensors that detect doors opening and closing are great and you

Poker with real money. Playing poker with fake money is utterly worthless. There needs to be real money behind your decision making but I promise it is eye opening. Learning how to play poker is one of the most important skills you can lear

Terrible article. It’s basically a negative yelp review masqueraded as some sort of financial analysis. He’s essentially a pissed off ex-customer that on one hand complains that they don’t pay the drivers enough, but also complains that the

I too enjoy the feelings of being on a low-carb/keto diet. I feel like my head is clearer and when I got on cheat weeks my hunger levels increase to incredible levels. While on a low-carb diet I won’t eat until noon, have a soup and eg

Sugar metabolism is very interesting. Sucrose is metabolized in a different pathway than fructose. Fructose is directly metabolized by the liver, which is why things like High Fructose Corn Syrup is devastating for your body. HFCS directly

I am pre-diabetic and I very well might be diabetic. My A1C is right at the border so I was able to convince my GP to give me a prescription for a CGM. It’s very interesting and helpful in keeping my blood sugar levels. I’ve been on carb-re
