As a Millennial I posted:lol i wonder what specific loophole they're trying to exploit requires this i'd imagine that if drivers start classifying their cars for commercial use, then there might be some increased regulation uber could face, or the increased costs of insurance for commercial vehicles might make it public that the drivers are getting hosed. the san francisco uber numbers blow my mind, they must include SFO trips or the bay area or something. i know a LOT of people are supposed to be ubering everywhere, it's pretty much "expected" that if you're dating in SF, you send an uber to pick up your date, etc, but i only know two people who use uber, one of them stopped ages ago, and the other only uses it because uber is a sponsor for the organization she works for. anyone i know who gets rides ordered uses lyft or taxis. re: box: quote:Back in July 2014 Box raised $150 million in new funding. More than half of that $150 million will leave the building after nine months of operations. http://valleywag.gawker.com/vulture-capitalist-avoid-that-box-ipo-1681322525/+danlyons

it seems like a billion times easier to build a better transportation system that can move large amounts of people from their pre-determined locations (their neighborhoods) to a centralized city location (their place of work) than it would be to develop and build millions of automated vehicles to replace each individual's driving experience

so i went to brunch with my white friend on sunday to some upscale brunch place called "Dottie's" on 6th street which is a whole story in its own, but she tells me about this new bus/uber/lyft alternative called "Chariot" where you pay $4 to hop in a van that has a semi-preselected route but the driver asks what stop you want and if no one wants the transamerican pyramid for example, then they skip it. so of course this basically just sounds like what bus systems were before they failed as private companies and turned public, but the big selling point for her was that they could instantly get more vans on the road when they needed them, and take them off when they weren't needed. i asked what were they doing with the extra vans and drivers when they aren't needed, she said the workers were doing stuff in the office. i wake up this morning, turns out chariot is storing their extra vans in front of my apartment

qirex posted:dotties [the old one in the 'loin] and burma super star were the first places I ever saw people wait in line for an hour for food yeah this is dotties moving over from the TL. the food was good enough but honestly i've had stuff that was just as good from a local diner for $10 and no line. watching a line full of dottie's patrons ignore all the homeless folks around them while waiting for brunch just left a bad taste in my mouth and apparently chariot just opened a cole valley route yesterday which is why they're staging on my block. i'm gonna guess part of their business model is staging vans in random people's neighborhoods until folks complain, then they stage somewhere else

I just started a job at a museum in SF so now I wear slacks and ties and have meeting about delegating tasks but tbf it's nice to work somewhere where your decisions matter and I realized defining myself by not having to dress up is loving dumb I just wanted to never work for a lovely corporation but I'm happy to dress up as management for a museum

I can't imagine uber would give out tax advice. they'd either lose drivers by admitting how terrible it is for them, or they'd encourage people to cheat and then be on the line for it

uptime is king. the museum where I work uses PayPal in the gift shop (lol I know) and their stuff went down for a little while yesterday and cost us several sales as a result. you might have 99% uptime but if that 1% is when the shop is trying to make a sale, that's enough for them to ask me about other POS options

Shifty Pony posted:rent control that covers only a part of the housing stock is bullshit. SF rent control was an emergency stop of mass evictions that property owners were doing when prop 13 passed and owners realized they could kick everyone out then sit on the properties then they made it permanent because every time it looks like rent control is going to relax, property owners immediately gear up to start mass evictions again
