Tweet[s] now protected but thanks to Netscape/Mozilla founder and San Francisco night club owner JWZ, Jamie Zawinski, here were some results.

Well, one is about to take your job while the others will just make your life slightly easier.

Y'all were cheering, hollering, and hooting like a 90s sitcom audience when Uber came about. You championed the identity politics because some of you had bad experiences with taxi drivers. You shouted down the opponents and liked how Uber was cheaper because it was being subsidized by venture capitalists.

Now the taxi industry is in control of tech tsars instead of the government and you only have yourselves to blame.

What I find so interesting about painting people you disagree with as a monolith is that it naturally makes the argument you are against contradictory.

One group of people cheers Uber and you disagree with that.

Then another group of people (granted there will be some overlap) decry Uber later on.

These are two different people, but when you treat them as one, you're bound to see your opposition as being contradictory at best and contrarian at worst.

And it's still better than it was 20 years ago, I don't see a problem.

Thanks to illegal hotel chain I can stay in the big city while helping someone who is pressed on rising rents

More common however it’s apartments renting rooms they can’t lease or houses/condos owned or built solely for AirBnB renting.
