yeah uber is still ostensibly a market/job board. no one is compelled to accept any given ride, because they're independent contractors*. you're free to post a 72-hour cross-country trip and the drivers are free to ignore it *lol

I thought their mistake was they sold the treasuries early at a very bad time to do that and in doing so locked in losses. because they needed the cash to cover the actual bad bet they had made

functionally it’s a bailout because it’s the difference between the bank completely evaporating and not completely evaporating but unlike a bailout they aren’t plugging the hole left by bad bets, only the holes left on everyone in the blast radius who was not involved in the bad bet decisions

it was definitely a failure though. a lot of the stuff was products that didn't have anything fundamentally wrong with them, just ended up DOA from badly misunderstanding the market or even were successful for a time and then died off after someone came along and ate their lunch. betamax. minitel. the arch deluxe of course there was also a lot of hilariously stupid poo poo like bottled water for dogs or an electric face toner haveblue fucked around with this message at 01:05 on Mar 20, 2023 |
