Detective No. 27 posted:Less Fat Luke, did you consider contacting a journalist about your friend's Facebook account? Dead people ad pages seems like one of those things that probably happens a lot without people knowing and Facebook probably won't do poo poo about unless it goes viral. Like what happened with the Pregnant Elsa Spiderman videos on YouTube a few years back.

Reminder that the Citizen app was originally called “Vigilante” but had to be renamed because people were taking it literally.

Just install gait recognition systems so you know each employee is taking an efficient route to the bathroom. Corporate dystopia is going to get so out of hand. it makes me think of Snowcrash and the way that working for the government was portrayed.

Well you see, the kidnapper was an IC who violated our no-kidnapping policy so we’re not liable, and the captive was carried away in a rented Uber, so by getting into the backseat he agreed to binding arbitration...

It's ok, 15 hours later the company finally removed him from their app and apologized for not talking to the police or following their own internal controls beforehand. If you're not coordinating with the police but offering money for the arrest of someone anyways, you're really just encouraging violence.

The infinite scroll of websites like the Facebook feed or YouTube recommendations are like a slot machine for your attention, no? If you get caught in that loop of scrolling down looking for something interesting, it's like you're pulling down the lever or scroll bar in the hope that the algorithm will give you a jackpot. It's completely Pavlovian.

It's kind of like that, I guess, but the jackpot is $.50 and every other possible payout is an annoying buzzer. I will never understand how people tolerate that poo poo.

I've never quite understood how banning or constraining unions is consitutional. Seems like a freedom of association issue.

The US is like a joke. Like everything is terrible the world over, but the US always has the way to be the most terrible. At least when it comes to capitalism and/or racism. A union without the right to strike. Only in the USA friends. E: And it's not even like they can use the bullshit "essential service" excuse like when they mandate teachers back to work. These are gig workers. Is Uber an essential service now? That's gonna be a problem when it finally goes belly-up, isn't it.

The barrier to entry in this space is insanely low imo. The hard work is already done. Reverse engineer the app if Google doesn't already have an API pre-made, then offer drivers 1% more than they currently get. The rest is just marketing

Couldn't you make an Uber app that cuts out management entirely? Like, in theory all you really need is a system that notifies nearby drivers of a potential job, and allow people to pay through the app right? You only need to cover a couple servers and a code monkey; take one percent from every transaction when there's hundreds a day, let the drivers keep the rest, and boom: it's self-sustaining, and no one is actually employed by anyone.

Kinda but not entirely. I used to run the cs team for the drivers for a food delivery company and we were heavily involved. Background checks on everybody driving and dealing with legal issues when they arose. You can’t be entirely removed from what the gig folks do, but they certainly tried.

People also tend to pretty greatly underestimate what "some coders and servers" cost when you're operating at any kind of scale.
