You know what fans (the real ones) do? They try to know more about the thing they are fans of, and to understand it. Your comment shows nothing of the kind.

To park, not to drive. And the speed in this case is 2km/h instead of bicyclist doing 20 among pedestrians.

That's a really shitty comparison. Unless cyclists really do drive in such packs (which they don't). In reality, the effective space taken by cyclist on genera purpose road is bigger than a car — you need a huge safety margin to overtake a cyclist, and if you cannot do that you a forced to follow them untill you can and that's really ineffective.
All this does not apply to dedicated cyclist roads/lanes, of course.

So people use Uber because it costs less to ride and because it does not allow tipping idea being that companies should pay more.
This is a sound logic.

Also, I still don't know what problem is IoT supposed to solve.

There is also more food than humans need. But there are some starving ones. Distribution is the problem.

I do not feel it is an issue at all. Unless you think that there is some deliberate attempt to prevent blacks and hispanics from joining IT.Why does some field need to mirror racial/whatever composition of the society? Are you concerned that NBA demobraphics does not represent general demographics?

Those do not look like fuckups to me, i. e. things what happened accidentally. They look like the logical outcome of the very same culture and that thing does not change easily.
