On: Uber for Everything

[scottmagdalein]

The specialness of Uber isn't the car, it's the driver that is summoned seemlingly magically from your phone and paid just as easily.

The drill analogy only works if you're quickly hiring a handyman to drill the hole, not a delivery person to drop off a drill.

Erm, that's exactly what TFA said.

What if for $22 I could have had a reliable person show up at my place within an hour, drill the holes, and go away?
