I guess that's nice if you live in San Francisco. Same day delivery doesn't exactly seem that challenging if you only deliver to a 30 minute radius.

  Well, considering that it can often take 30 minutes to travel 2 blocks in SF, getting something delivered the same day might be challenging. Unless you had self-driving cars with real time map data.

    > 30 minutes to travel 2 blocks in SF Sounds like you may be doing it wrong. I lived there for 4 years. Public transit, biking options etc were all decent. You talking about on the 101 during rush hour? I bet their algos would easily avoid that.

      I'm sure he was exaggerating, but in any case I don't think public transit or biking are viable options for a robust item delivery service (sure, there are some items biking could work well for, but it is a very narrow band of thing).
