How prostitution and alcohol make Uber better
Am I missing something here?The article basically uses crime as a proxy for "social population density."  I'm pretty sure you could also use "restaurant reservations" as a similar proxy, but then I guess you wouldn't get to use words like 'prostitution' in the title of your blog post.Then, Uber cab riders go to these areas that are densely social.  I'm guessing they probably take other modes of transportation too.Then, something about certain crimes being more prevalent on certain days of the week, with some pretty huge leaps of faiths made in the reasoning and no actual testable data to back it up.I don't like to post too often on HN if I'm just going to stand there and drink some haterade, but this just seemed like such a sad attempt to put together something for pageviews that I couldn't help myself.
