The problem with these things is that they are a poor use of already limited pedestrian spaces in cities. People stepping into the street to pass them, etc

We didn't need to go out of our way to protect gas station attendant jobs either and the states that did look ridiculous now

They were pretty chill on the UCLA campus.

I envision companies viewing bike lanes as places where things like this will stop and I'm not a fan of that. If they can sort it out where people aren't hanging out in rider's way then 🤷‍♂️

I think we should have a robust social safety net to take care of people who lose their jobs. I do not believe that we should do luddite job protectionism for food delivery drivers. There is plenty of other work to be done.

I prefer to have human servants. For leftism reasons.

This is the way. Most foods don’t even travel well! There’s a reason these were the delivery options!

And when you forced yourself to leave the house, you might periodically wind up sidequesting to some other retail you saw on the way.

I got way too into the habit of ordering delivery during the pandemic and I am trying to turn it back into a special treat specifically because I need to get out of the house more.

Okay but that won’t stop the proliferation of food delivery

Why does your burrito need a taxi?

i think it's been reported that they're paying computer operators in south asia to drive your burrito taxi. so they're not robots. they're just underpaying human workers.

And cites get to choose the terms of use for their sidewalks. So a rich corporation that wants to drive robots on them for profit and nuke hundreds of jobs in the process can in fact be told "no".

And people wonder why the left is not receptive to YIMBYs.

I do not need to be sharing my sidewalk with robot macha messengers
