    "The company says the move comes in recognition of the fact that Twitter is often most useful in real time"

    It's almost as if they hired somebody with a little bit of sense.

    How could it take this long to realize, and when will Facebook do the same?

  4. Re:VR/AR on Hyped AR Tech Firm Blippar Collapses Into Administration (bbc.com) · · Score: 0

    In what way could average citizens benefit from VR/AR? What need does it fulfill? I can't think of any.

  5. What level of management said this was OK to do?

    And was this simply the cheapest alternative?

    Most people don't read their bills unless there is a significant discrepancy in the amount due, so if there is no regularion saying you can't do this, maybe someone said "hey, here's a way we can ensure all our customers read the ad and this will be more likely to generate revenue".

    "The times and places female Uber drivers work [...] fewer overnight shifts"

    Funny, when I read that I infer self preservation, by avoiding the type of life threatening or permanently traumatizing situations that are more likely to happen at night (e.g., drunk male passengers). That's a dramatically different situation from actual personal choice.

    So, people that take on more risk (men) get more reward?
