A human rideshare driver would never do any of this

Back when Foursquare was more popular, I always felt their ratings were much more accurate than Yelp’s. They use(d?) a ternary neutral/thumbs up/thumbs down.

Not sure of their algorithm to generate a score of 1-10 – it’s possible it used more information than just the ternary rating — but their ratings could vary dramatically from sites like Yelp that used the usual 1-5 stars, and seemed to track much more closely to the actual quality of restaurants.

It's the very similar-looking Beaver Building/Cocoa exchange: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1_Wall_Street_Court

The current strategy most places is effectively make people too miserable _not_ to own a car. The idea here is to give those who would prefer not to depend on one (i.e., don’t own one or have one they don’t need to use all the time) a pleasant life, subject to less of the negative side effects of cars.

If you end up in Manhattan: Mercer Street Books, Alabaster Bookshop, and Joanne Hendricks Cookbooks are some of my favorites. The latter two aren’t necessarily cheap but have some really cool stuff.
