It'll be interesting to follow the economics of Tesla taxis—for the owner, for the taxi industry & for NYC generally Here's some more detail on this 1st one from @t_levin: businessinsider.com/first-te…

🌳 Add up all the space Manhattan devotes to cars, and you’d have an area nearly 4x as large as Central Park In @VishaanNYCA's vision, rideshares, taxis & buses don't add traffic to cities--they can help cities reduce private cars, & transform themselves nytimes.com/2020/07/09/opini…

Taxi drivers and gig economy workers of all kinds "shouldn’t have to bear the brunt of a business model that works only when they are exploited.” nytimes.com/2020/06/27/opini…

Opinion | Uber Rides Cost More? OK (Published 2020)

Many gig-based business models help customers take advantage of workers. Let’s stop giving tech companies a free ride.

Everything is horrible beyond imagining, and it's only getting worse. So this is a thread to recommend something you're enjoying right now. Something not politics, not a history of past pandemics. I'll do two, a book and an album.

NYC's streets belong Citi Bike, and Citi Bike belongs to New Yorkers. @CitiBikeNYC is doubling its service area and tripling its fleet to 40,000 bikes. Our streets contain multitudes, and soon, they'll contain the largest bike share network outside China. ny.curbed.com/2018/11/29/181…

NYC simply wouldn't be NYC without its taxi drivers. To show our love, Bandwagon is giving drivers an additional 10% bonus for every shared ride you take from the city's airports and transit hubs 🚕🚕🚕 medium.com/@HiBandwagon/band…
