Thank you, that is a sad story. And well buried - hard to Google, and I never came across this even when they were a client of mine.

I was worried about this too. I recently got a newest gen DJI drone, and was self conscious about flying it for this very reason. Turns out, with the quiet propellers installed it disappears into the urban background hum when it's 30m

Google (Alphabet subsidiary Wing) is already operational with their drone delivery service in Australia and Finland. The drones don't land, they lower the order. Available food payload is 1.2kg for now - which is on the "slightly

The delivery companies charge the restaurant, up to 35% of the meal value. In addition to the delivery fee that is shown to the end user. The figure is probably about 30% on average, can be lowered to 25% or 20% for extremely desirable or h

I think you are overstating the opportunity here. Unit economics of scalable food delivery do not support small towns. Scale requires sales reps to sign restaurants, account managers to maintain the relationships with the restaurants, loc

That's still too many steps - the trouble with bi/tri-lingual life is you often interject words (places, addresses, proper nouns) in the local language into sentences in any of the other two languages. Constantly opening and closi

Am I misunderstanding American internet service completely, or is this as obscene as it sounds? I pay 40€ a month for a gigabit connection to my flat in 18th-19th century built neighbourhood. 25€ for unlimited 400 Mbit/s to my phone. A

I love this analysis of the dynamic involved. Tech talents' emotional capitulation vs the fact that at this point many are financially independent and free to do whatever they want is also an interesting dynamic.
