Venkatesh Rao @vgrCan’t recall where I saw this (help?) but rideshare drivers typically don’t work longer during surge to maximize revenue while there’s more money to be made. They just work till they hit their daily income target and go home. I think I’ll call this uberrational economic behavior.Show this thread1 reply 1 retweet 4 likesShow this thread -

Venkatesh Rao @vgrBeen thinking a lot about the API as a metaphor and the peace above vs the war below (both Covid and protests/riots/looting) API as storefront glass: read-only aspirational life API as great filter on social mobility API as defensive perimeter against viruses and violenceShow this thread1 reply 0 retweets 2 likesShow this thread -

Venkatesh Rao @vgrThinking about my thread this morning on why independent research is hard, and what it would take to make it possible, and whether it’s within the reach of private investors who ALL complain endlessly about how they have far too much capital and don’t know where to put it. https://twitter.com/vgr/status/1195789557465153536 …Show this thread1 reply 0 retweets 3 likesShow this thread -

Venkatesh Rao @vgrThe longer I spend online, the more true this feels. A big consequence of social atomization is that increasing numbers of people lack a sense of how their thinking stacks up against others. They are either very impressed with themselves OR ridiculously underestimate themselves. https://twitter.com/vgr/status/1266118677537026050 …Show this thread1 reply 1 retweet 11 likesShow this thread -
