Much simpler UI than n8n, congrats on the launch!
It's rare to see shade thrown so overtly in the Times, because it's so rare it can be done this deniably, and always makes me chuckle when it does.
I see this as the future of public transport, where you'd have a combo of smaller and bigger vehicles (including self-driving minibuses and buses) running autonomously, with options to pay more in order to walk less, but only running where people actually need them . Similar to Uber and Lyft Pool before the pandemic, where you could pay less to be picked up on a main street intersection instead of your front door.
