the concept of criminally underpaying 200,000 people “unintentionally”
Since 2023, more than 200,000 Dashers in New York City were underpaid or paid late under the City’s delivery worker pay rules. These errors were unintentional, but that doesn’t make them acceptable. Dashers should be paid in full, on time, every time. We take full responsibility, and we’re deeply sorry.
We’ve reached a $131.5 million settlement with the NYC Department of Consumer and Worker Protection. Every impacted Dasher will receive the amount they are owed, and they’ll be contacted directly with payment details.
We understand the impact of even one missed or late payment. We’ve addressed the issues that caused these errors and made changes to prevent them from happening again.

The City of New York asserts this was not a mistake.
“For years, DoorDash failed to count every hour worked by delivery workers,” Mayor Mamdani said. “This was not a rounding error or an accidental mistake.“

It's Climate Week New York! And we rallied outside of OpenAI NYC during the UNGA to tell our world and state leaders: Regulate AI. Stop AI Data centers.
The time is now! TY @ir_replaceable, @sunrisemvmt, and all! ✊🏼

Anti-Zionist is either a verb or it’s meaningless. Abolishing “Israel” as a religious ethno nationalist state is the objective.

Data centers are straining the power grid, but working people are paying the price.
Corporate utilities will always care more about their profits than your bills. Only public utilities will put public needs first.

Right now, Oregon's 111 data centers use almost a quarter of the state's electricity. With planned construction, Oregon could soon have over 140 data centers. How much higher will utility bills reach? And how are Oregonians supposed to afford this? opb.org/article/2026/09/17/o…

Whatever Lee Zeldin and the rest of Trump's cronies doing are doing with the EPA, they're certainly not protecting the environment.
Before our eyes, the environmental agency has been transformed into an eager yes-man for an industry with both antisocial implications and a pollution problem. prospect.org/?p=144468

As if we needed any more proof that this has anything to do with antisemitism. It’s about the people who make money from and off Israel and how they’ve exploited Jewish Americans and Jewish identity to keep their fortunes. Fuck Ed Sheeran and Fuck Robert Kraft

These terrible situations will become ever more common if pollution isn’t rapidly reduced. There’s just no way to fully “resilience” our way out of runaway climate change.
