I think the order cost increases the variability of the delivery cost. Anecdata, but I have noticed for larger orders, the driver often spends more time at the restaurant waiting for the order to be ready. Ideally the delivery company wou

I disagree. There is a valuable question of "how reliable does this system need to be?" and for startups, the answer is often not 5 9s of uptime. 99% uptime is 14 minutes of downtime per day. There are an awful lot of processes

If costs get low enough, it might be possible to do multiple delivery attempts per day. Something like "your delivery device will be on your block at 7:00, 9:00, 12:00, 3:00, 6:00 and 8:00". Or, more optimally, you would configure

They can. You need to buy surgical respirators instead of surgical masks. They look fairly similar. Masks prevent you spreading the disease to others. Respirators prevent you spreading the disease and others spreading it to you.

You are correct, there are literal truths. Some person factually used some set of words in a particular order. The part that people care about is how we interpret those words. It being fact does not make the implication incorrect. In an

In an oversimplification, there are two means to motivate people; the proverbial carrot and stick. Call centers (and most low paying jobs) operate with a goal of minimizing costs. Most incarnations of motivating people with a carrot involve

From what I've heard (no real scientific data to back this) the stems contain very little psylocibin. And the dosage for mushrooms is surprisingly high. For run of the mill strains, I believe 3.5 grams is considered a standard dose. Wh

I'm curious how this doesn't qualify as wiretapping if they can read the calls without a warrant. Does that make it legal for anyone to operate a StingRay? If it does, another option would be malicious compliance. Have anyone wh

Likely not. This statute requires the defendant to have knowledge of the infringement. With a VPN, ISPs (theoretically) don't know that you are infringing. On the other hand, however, this same statute could be applied to VPN provide
