Treating everyone with respect isn’t enough?

Deadspin won’t admit it but secretly Trump presidency has probably been a blessing for their traffic. Literally every other article involves Trump in some form

Is it really that horrible that a seat formerly occupied by a right leaning judge will be filled by a similar right leaning judge? The hand wringing around here is getting over the top

curious when Mr. Nolan practices what he preaches and deadspin becomes unionized......

funny thing is that I bet a bunch of the Ubers/Lyfts that picked up people at the airport were actually in the area after dropping off protesters (who probably now are deleting Uver) at said airports.  

How is this a “problem” with the gig economy? It just is - not everything needs to labelled good or bad.

No removing surge pricing actually supported the strike. By eliminating surge pricing they were providing potential drivers less incentive to work thereby reducing the amount of drivers available to travelers looking to leaver the airport. This faux outrage is so badly misplaced.

the article is Much Ado About Nothing

Ya basically Uber eliminated the additional incentive (surge pricing) for drivers to work and yet drivers still decided to participate. I’m no Uber apologist, but short of Uber just straight up refusing to take fares from the airport (which also would have received criticism) they did what they could. Lose, lose

OOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

depends where you are fracking -bakken shale yes, permian shale still profitable

Great article and use of GIFs

Is it all that shocking that white women aren’t marching for your specific causes when you guys are constantly putting down their actions and participation? Perhaps persistently criticizing a group for what they are not doing instead of lauding what they are doing (being positive) is not the best way to attract wider

Ya “organize your people” BUT it “felt very white”. Ahhh OK.

Patriots fan here but curious why you dislike the Packers

ahhhhh Gillette Stadium was actually privately funded.....

ya how dare they support the GOP nominee for president! monsters!!!

Obviously part-time employment is less than ideal but you are ignoring the emergence of the gig economy and the impact it has on part time employment figures. The composition of part-time employment is changing significantly.

The statistics you guys are using are valid, but personally I think you and OhNoRomoGoes are painting a particularly grim picture. Yes this recovery has been unusually stagnant, but I think that is in large part the beauty of this stock bull market. It’s very similar to the tortoise and the hare, slow steady

Ya to your point labor participation is kind of a red herring stat. Baby boomers leaving the labor force is definitely a major reason for falling labor participation, but I don’t think it’s possible to definitely say how big a factor it is.
