Thanks for both those links. Both were super interesting to read about. Very cool to learn how an ant can come up with these solutions. I wonder if different species of Ants have different solutions? Like a large species might be able to do

The "dashers" could also keep track of the wait times for each restaurant, and then work accordingly to the wait times. They could boost their delivery's, but it definitely would take several weeks to get the right amount of
