I just had a thought, wasn't this accident after the Levandowski thing? I wonder if Uber pulled a bunch of code for fear of infringing on waymo and put in this crappy hacky code. T…

Lol, people keep taking about Uber building internal products because 3rd party stuff can't "Uber" scale, I think the real drive to build internal apps is to save on licensing cost…

Before the Susan fowler thing they had a rule that you had 30 days to exercise your options after you leave or separate as they called it. Since the company's value went up so much…

It's weird walking away from 120 million but I think I might get what he was thinking. He was probably over confident with the tech, and thought it was close to roll out. He was al…

Hmm... If Anthony ends up taking a plea deal I wonder if there might be some details about Uber that might come up. I could totally see Anthony selling out Travis at least

Oh I didn't hear about a snap lawsuit, I knew their stock tanked but I don't know about the lawsuit. I'll Google it. I figured after they put out the ipo perspective it was "buyer …

What the heck could this be about? They just IPO'd and the investors are mad the stock is down? Why would that be a reason to sue... Or I assume sue... Why would this require an in…

What do you suppose this is about? https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20190813005793/en/INVESTOR-ALERT-Law-Offices-Howard-G.-Smith

But as a bicyclist it's deadly. I'm in SF, it happens all the time on second St and on market. I thought they weren't even allowed to drop off on market but it happens all the time…

Waze and a company called scoop do this

Agreed, if I go on the sidewalk I never go faster than walking speed but only if the sidewalk is clear. I'll walk it if there's people on the sidewalk.

>As for the self righteousness of "only peds belong on sidewalks", I get tired of that. I strongly disagree with this. I've owned an electric scooter for over a year now and I lear…

Yea I've never seen anyone riding with a helmet on these scooters. U see them all over south park bear the ball park. I've rode a personal electric scooter for over a year now and …

Actually their motto is "Safety third" https://jalopnik.com/safety-third-is-the-running-joke-at-ube...

there's a company testing a remote driver system to take control of self driving cars when they can't handle a problem ahead. https://spectrum.ieee.org/cars-that-think/transportati…

I can understand that, my anecdotal experience with AT&T fiber when they rolled out was that they dug up half the curb in front on my driveway and left a trench covered with a unse…

It's the 100k paid out to this guy included with that number? Just curious

Yea I had uber driver tell me he cleared 100k maybe 3 or 4 years ago. Back then uber only took a 15% i think. They also paid crazy incentives to lure drives. Like earn 1-2k for x a…

I'm no uber fan but I don't see them ever going away. It may downsize or it may merge with a competitor but I don't see the uber app ever going away. Plus they have a lot of paper …

Most operational staff are hourly workers who don't get paid anywhere near what a engineer gets and hourly works usually don't get RSUs. You have to consider the 1000s people worki…

If they lose they could be forced shut down they're AV research. I don't think the judge would let them continue using waymo's tech while uber appeals

I think it'll be exodus 2.0. I contracted there until Nov 2016, a few months before the delete uber campaign and Susan Fowler. I kept in contact with some service desk friends and …

You missed a couple steps - hire a PR firm to flood new cities with stories of how g great uber is - build up a huge rider and driver base by offering riders deep discounts and dri…
