In an ever-growing number of places, the value of years of knowing "the fucking streets" is dwarfed by something like Waze: a GPS app with real-time traffic information and real-time crowd-sourced versions of that street knowledge.

yeah of course, too bad people who drives Uber are not using Waze. Personally in various cities i had to rely on classic Taxi after having issues with Uber, like calling 20 times a ride and the guy never show up/canceled after 20 minutes (Amsterdam, 3x) or driver got lost with the support of the GPS of course (Lisbon, 5x), or the time i had to tell him the way ( he was using gps ). For my needs it's a useless service cause they cannot give a standard good service.
