my coworkers somehow get the ubers that make them sit up front and hug the driver after they get dropped off so they don't get fined like $1500 or whatever it is for flagrantly violating the jitney cab laws at SFO.

90% of my uber drivers this year have been non-english speaking asian men driving brand new plateless leased camrys, but the name on the thing will be like "Larry" and it has a pic of a white dude with a beard. i assume everything is on the up-and-up because Uber is a good corporate citizen.

Joe Law posted:so I went to Calhacks this weekend and one of the top 10 was "parcely" an app that let uber drivers also find packages they can deliver on their routes because FedEx and USPS are "too slow and expensive", or if the uber drivers dont have a fair, they can just spend the time delivering packages. it didnt win but people thought this was "disruptive" and generally awesome. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Se6gtgh3ook

lmao “There is a strong sense of entitlement among some, not all, dog owners that they can run their dogs wherever they want,” said Mike Lynes, who, as the executive director of the Golden Gate Audubon Society, is concerned about the impact of all these dogs on the wild creatures in the parks, not to mention the humans. “There is a lot of passion about this issue in San Francisco,” said Howard Levitt, the spokesman for the National Park Service here. “Dog conflicts are among the toughest to deal with.” The statistic is so often repeated that it has become central to San Francisco’s self image: there are more dogs than children in the city. “I don’t think we’re spoiling our dogs — I think they’re living a wonderful life,” Ms. Walters said. “I mean, we all live here in the Bay Area for a reason. We don’t live in Chicago.”
