Isn't this more selling the ore to the pick and shovel makers? The hapless gold miners in this case being all the Uber for street sweeper startups


Totally OT I know, but Uber for street sweeper -- I want this. Give me an app to request a quick cleanup and maybe try to get my neighbors to chip in. Or to report roadway debris to the city. Or for driveway snow removal during the winter.


Your city might have an app for reporting issues to the city. https://www.sandiego.gov/get-it-done has it for example.
