Are you daft? The title of the article is “Uber Is Quietly Terrible For Women And Black People: Study”

This is a good example of someone making wrong assumptions and taking them to their logical conclusion.

If a competitor to Uber is seen as less racist, why shouldn’t they win more business?

I have no doubt about that.

“If the study provides impetus for Uber to anonymize the app a bit more to make it harder for drivers to express their racism or sexism, is that good or bad?”

Oh.. so just like the gender pay gap? Gross statistics don’t tell the whole story, try again.

“If there was evidence that suggested that the bank was discriminating against them and profiting off of said discrimination...”

Any product or service offered for sale will either fail or succeed based on the perception of its customers... real or perceived, doesn’t matter. If the perception is that Uber is racist, they may fail... their competitor may succeed because they are perceived as less racist... none of this matters unless you have a…

Exactly... I like how someone, who never lifted one finger to start a business, much less a game changing ride sharing service, draws the conclusion that Uber is inherently terrible for women and blacks because drivers are... what? inherently misogynistic racists?

I’ll be wating when the price inevitably drops to 12K.

So the conclusion you draw is that ride sharing is terrible for women... based on the study you cited? Is there something else? My wife uses Uber frequently and she does NOT think it’s terrible. In fact, she will probably never step foot in another cab again, if she can help it... I think that speaks to having MORE,…

Is it “day-mun” or “duh-mon”... ‘cause that affects how i read this 10% of the time.

I mean, i don’t feel like I have to justify it... it’s an aesthetic preference. I don’t like it and I’m not really that interested in analyzing why... it’s just a car design.

Still though...

I need this so hard.

Shut up with your “logic” and “reality” and your “understanding” of “markets”...

Who bases everything in life on need alone?
