New comment by healsdata in "DoorDash Spent $1.4M Trying to Stop Mamdani from Becoming Mayor. Now We Know Why"

Their appeal initially was that they would deliver for places that didn't have their own drivers. So you went from only getting pizza and Chinese delivery to anything being available.

Now, everyone is offloading their deliveries to DoorDash. Wendy's first-party delivery is just a wrapper for DoorDash. Pizza Hut used DoorDash if they don't have enough drivers available. Even PetSmart or Petco uses DoorDash for delivery now.

Not saying it's right or good, but you could order from Pizza Hut and still get a gig worker if their driver called out stick today.

New comment by healsdata in "A/I shuts down"

healsdata — Sun, 06 Sep 2026 17:01:23 +0000

Substack knowingly and openly platforms neo-nazis, allowing them to profit from their rhetoric while taking a piece of the action. Even if the authors avoid specific calls to violence to skirt the ToS, it still gives them fertile ground for recruitment and funding of their activities.

By your definition, then, Substack should be labelled as a terrorist organization and shutdown, yes?

New comment by healsdata in "Gmail to end support for "Send as" for third-party addresses, such as @yahoo.com"

healsdata — Fri, 04 Sep 2026 15:42:32 +0000

What an odd choice of inflammatory language for a feature that uses standard email headers. It doesn't forge anything since it clearly says it was sent from the GMail account on behalf of the other email address in the headers.

New comment by healsdata in "CEO who fired 900 people on Zoom just before Christmas wants his job back"

healsdata — Fri, 14 Aug 2026 21:20:47 +0000

There's a huge range of options between a terse Zoom call with 900 people on it and flying everyone to NY. And if you're someone who previously said "You are TOO DAMN SLOW. You are a bunch of DUMB DOLPHINS… SO STOP IT. STOP IT. STOP IT RIGHT NOW. YOU ARE EMBARRASSING ME" to your employees, you may want to lean towards the more humane options if you don't want to get dragged.
