No thanks! If drivers need to be compensated better, I would suggest increasing the fare or Uber taking a smaller cut. A lot of people prefer Uber just so they don't have to deal with tipping like in traditional cabs.

As someone who worked for an IT vendor with certification and as someone who was part of the certification team at another place, I can assure you that you're right. The certification is more for the organization/unit and the peop

I have never met anybody who really wanted to work for Uber. There are some companies that people really want to work for, example Google, Facebook etc depending on interests, but even then, it is usually not just the company but the pay,

I think DoorDash does similar thing. You pay Tip, Service Fee, and Tax. It would still be ok if the food was being delivered from far off, but most of the time it is within a 2-5 mile radius. A $20 order easily becomes a $40 order.

I'm not from Delhi, but similar ban has been in effect in south India for many years now. Water/soda bottles are not included in the ban, it is usually the shopping bag and eating utensils like cups and plates.

Do you have a family and rent your own place or do you share accommodation? That is a huge factor. I have single friends who pay $600 rent as opposed to me paying $3000.

You bring up a big issue I have with the streaming model. I used to be an avid movie watcher. A year before I moved to a different country, I watched 60 movies in the theaters, that is about 5 a month. This did not even include the hundreds

This may be my bias, but the experience you had is explainable. The former H1B workers probably were in the US as an onsite assignment or through a consultancy/contractor. Most Indian consultancies view people as warm bodies on the cha

I am not sure what you're doing different, but the exact opposite is true for me. I don't reboot my computer unless some update from work forces me to. I run a bunch of programs all the time. Here is my laptop currently and this i

Because they don't affect just the state. If one state restricts it and another doesn't, people will smuggle them across state lines.

I see what you're saying but I would also like to point out that it works both way. States can and will revoke reproductive rights, same sex marriage and other rights. IMHO, Anything that impacts one state directly while not affecting

This argument will not stand in the courts. Data collection without consent is illegal, which is why there is so much controversy around the stingray things. Getting a warrant to look at the data may be legal, but collecting the said data w

Exactly my thoughts. Let states implement the policy that affects the state and let the country as a whole elect the federal government. There is no need for some votes to have more power than some other votes based on the states when elect

My point still stands. The Wyoming voter now has 4X more say in things that affect a vast majority of people In CA. States should govern things that affect the land management in this case and federal government should not deal with that.

Your argument is fine and dandy until you realize that the same thing you set out to prevent now happens to majority. $15 is devastating in rural area so you don't implement it, now it is economically devastating in urban areas and aff

I wasn't talking about the wall per-se but the general view about Immigration.

Immigration in the US is broken on so many levels. I am afraid nothing will be done to resolve that. a personal example is the number of years it takes for someone from India/China to be legally a citizen is vastly different than othe

As an Immigrant, the list depresses me. It is evident that the person who came up with the list does not consider immigrants as people.
