    I find it weird how often the criticisms don't cite anything real. https://lambdaschool.com/isa is there data, and I am sure there is more. Can you reference your post to what they…

    How many people do you hire from other places? I'm never hiring anyone again if I can help it, so I'm not the target either, and this sort of post seems to imply this is a huge los…

    And what does welfare pay? Serious question as I'm not in the USA and have no idea. If Welfare pays less, isn't Uber/Lyft a positive thing? And that is just the direct monetary ben…

    Can you give us some anecdata and what the affect on riders pay was? Was it a significant drop in pay, or mostly poor service and inconvenience?

    The argument X "does not pay a reasonable wage for anyone to live on true" may be true for many definitions of "live on", how is no job better? Does Uber pay more than an alternate…

    So why don't you start a competitor? The idea that there is a gap in the market is something that people are looking for, on Hacker News most especially, and if this is a legitimat…

    What is the role of journalists? The defence that "basically the mainstream view in the US at the time" seems to me the antithesis of why we need journalists at all. Far too much j…
