Scooters (2018) are basically like on demand valet (2015), just without the cost of labor & parking so the unit economics may actually work.

In that sense, smart!
However, sitting in Chicago I stilll ask:

How are we gonna operate these things in the snow?

Great tweet storm on the challenges of getting addicted to paid marketing channels for startups https://t.co/QnoFtI32so

1/ Many of the biggest implosions in recent history - especially ecommerce - have been due to startups getting addicted to paid marketing while fooling themselves on Customer Acqusition Costs. As spend scales, it always gets more expensive and harder to track - never less.

We are grieving with Parkland. But we are not powerless. Caring for our kids is our first job. And until we can honestly say that we're doing enough to keep them safe from harm, including long overdue, common-sense gun safety laws that most Americans want, then we have to change.

Taking away #NetNeutrality is the Authoritarian dream. Consolidating information into the hands of a few controlled by a few. Dangerous territory. https://t.co/ZVdvmGzcHf

@buybuyBABY I recently bought a baby monitor & it's awful. BBB won't take it back. Disappointed you won't stand behind your products.

[Jeff Eckerling @JeffEckerling]

@robyneckerling @buybuyBABY @buybuyBABY expect you to standby the products you sell in your store. Even the manufacture said you should refund the product. #badservice

John McCain left hospital stay paid by taxes on flight paid by taxes to remove health insurance from taxpayers. And we paid him to do it.

A century ago, it took Vladimir Lenin one month after taking power to coin the term "vrag naroda", "enemy of the people", on 28 Nov, 1917.

"Negative news = fake news" is straight-up blunt Orwellianism.

We already have a white-supremacist in jail here for plotting to kill a federal judge. This rhetoric is vile. https://t.co/LL0t60Fc6w
