No, that's not how it should work at all.

On Lyft, the driver doesn't know that you tipped or how much. I fail to see why this would be any different.

So what? Even at Uber, 90% of their employees, the ones who actually made the company as valuable as it is, won't see much in terms of reward for it, and they'll have sacrificed that work-life balance to do so.

It apparently did mean that to Uber, which is the topic at hand.

I have to flag you because you are not discussing this in good faith. You are constantly dodging questions, and trying to put words in people's mouths.

Uber/Lyft have NOT reduced greenhouse gas. Not a bit. Those rides are still being taken, and inbetween rides, those cars are driving around. "while not forcing drivers to pay excessing leasing fees for vehicles." In the same

That's a nice thought, but just about all of human history proves your entire thing wrong.

"Luddites repeat: automation, price reduction and job shifting isn't bad for the economy and it isn't worse either" You haven't proven that. And its entirely possible that it's not worse for the economy in gene

"Free" in the sense that they have the 1st Amendment right to do so. Not in the sense that they actually can, especially once Walmart gets to be a significant customer to them.

That's fine for a tiny community, but Canonical is a business, and they need to sell devices in decent volume. That means getting them into US Carrier stores. I'm glad you guys are able to continue using, but as long as the path w

That's a pretty large amount of incompetence. Not saying it isn't possible to be that incompetent, but it's a bit of a stretch.

Why employers continue to insist upon stealing from their employees, I'll never know.

You'd think they could, but they had Windows Phone, and that flopped. Not saying that Ubuntu Phone couldn't do better, but unless they got devices in carrier's stores, they wouldn't have a chance.

"You say that like it's a bad thing." Because it is a bad thing.

The real advice in this comment is to not finish your work too early, as the only reward you'll get is more work.

It is bad, because the managers take the bulk of the credit and reward, rather than those that actually do stuff.

Perhaps, but both still have pretty high, prohibitive to some, up front costs.

Not mind killed. Just a realist. You and I both know that's what would happen.

No. Do not do that. The second that the cause/effect relationship is understood down to a neuron level like that, advertisers will abuse that to make things even more effective.

Search YouTube for "rolling coal", and see how many videos involve cyclists. Like many things in life, douchebags tend to ruin good things.

E-Bikes are a good idea, but they're pretty expensive. Like, you could buy a car for the cost of one.

That being true doesn't mean I can't lament the fact that these shitty people exist and are able to get away with it.

Your argument boils down to, "If they agree to it, there's absolutely nothing wrong," which is an argument that I've never accepted before. A person in a position of power, which the studios are, taking advantage of youn

Part of the problem is that he doesn’t have any consequences for doing it. Violence isn’t a great solution in all cases, but if after a couple times of doing this, he got popped in the face, he’d probably stop doing it quickly. It’s sad, bu

I didn't say there should be no return. Suggesting that is quite dishonest on your part. I merely stated that the bulk of reward should go to those who actually DO something, not those who's only contribution is already having mon

One guy is far too many. There is absolutely ZERO excuse for that happening.

I'm happy that he's willing to give those kinds of benefits to his employees when he doesn't have to. But I cannot have respect for someone that doesn't believe that everyone should have that.

No. This take is completely wrong, and is quite tone deaf.
