Here's an inspiring video from Mark Rober on using tech to lower costs of delivery. I'm not sure how well it will scale, but the Rwanda use case is amazing.

The scale will be a really big challenge, but I'm curious about how the competitive landscape of deliver will impact things. Will we have a sky full of buzzing drones from Amazon, USPS, and UPS?

One perk of truck delivery is that the marginal cost of adding a house on a route is low. The back-and-forth of drone deliveries may be the biggest barrier. I guess that's just the scale issue on output instead of inputs.

Honestly, me too. I love finding a dataset online that I can turn into an interesting graph.
