Uber eats is generous w messed up orders I think. Delivering a large (cord) of wood is expensive for everyone. Load and unload and then find out it's smoky af maybe a month after delivery. That's an expensive mistake. And is also subjective. My wood standards are different than the next guy. Also Uber eats delivers daily and I might get a cord or 2 max each winter for 2500 sf house. Last, in nyc everyone delivers and always has, no need for an app. The food comes from a block or 2 away max or it's cold. The delivery guy comes up the 5 flights of stairs so you don't have to.

Most of the time. Heating w wood can make sense in limited circumstances but mostly it's just nice ambiance and my gf likes to snuggle. 😍

The number of fireplaces in reasonable distance of the wood seller is fixed. Your app won't bring any more fireplaces to the market.

The minute you connect the buyer and the seller they don't need to complete the transaction via the app unless you are delivering it. Once they have done business one time they can pick up the phone. The fireplace isn't moving and the person selling the wood isn't either. Just stuff to consider.
If the people are serious about wood for heat they are looking for high quality seasoned wood bc a load of green or poorly seasoned or mixed wood is really a pain. For that reason they are going to go back to the same person they trust vs using an app to shop. One load of bad wood is painful. (We heated with wood in Lanc city row house in the 80s w a Swedish combo stove, I was the free labor to stack wood and manage the firebox. Many more trips w bad wood than a quality seasoned hardwood)
I don't mean to rain on your parade btw. But don't spend money on development wo thinking thru some of these issues.

I just ordered a bundle from Instacart. Wood is designed to look cute and romantic but won't keep ya warm.

A bundle delivery service would be cool. I don't want a ton of termite infested wood laying around. A fire is nice to have but I don't want to lug dirty wood around in my pristine white eldorado.
I buy bundles of wood from a guy around the corner. He buys cords and bundles them w string. Honor system drop money in the box. $25 for 3. Not sure either of us want to pay you for an app bc it's not that much anyway. Apps have meant the wood seller gets less, I pay more, some guy in the middle w an app gets rich.

No local politician will cut the budget of the police department. They will definitely cut mental health budgets or any other health budget for that matter.

Signing a one sided contract does not mean labor law gets tossed out the window unless they are a de facto contractor. W2 employee is assumed if the employer controls the number of hours worked.

The fair labor standards act is designed to prevent this. Don't sign anything and call the us labor department employment standards administration and report it and ask for an audit.

Freedom! Freedom is not free.
Free to express your opinion. (Unless your opinion is in conflict w the religious beliefs of a school board official of a publicly funded school).
You have a federally recognized right to marry but the school board prefers that is never ever discussed. If you're in a same sex marriage and have children in the school just be quiet about that ok? If you're a lgbtq teacher you have that right but not in front of the children (clutch pearls)!
Wtf people.

I have some questions about Delaware also. 🤔 adjacent to PA yet dramatic differences.
This is a great dataset for a stat analysis class!

If you're looking at a free ride from haverford bc you are top 1% brain you can probably get the same deal elsewhere and attend a place with a deep faculty in your field. Comp Sci is broad.
Figure out the interest areas of the faculty members who actually interact with students and make sure it aligns with yours esp in a smaller school like haverford. My 2 cents.

Are we gonna look at Jared Kushners billions in Saudi funding immediately after leaving the White House while we are digging into the laptops of White House relatives? He was actually in the WH making taxpayer funded policy while Hunter was boozing up whatever on his own dime.

Good point that it's not instant fix like grubEx but less chemicals in your life.
Grubs eat roots of grass wo you knowing so the brown spots on your lawn are probably grubs underneath vs a problem with the grass itself.

Milky spore is a biological agent that kills grubs and harmless to animals and humans. Once the grubs are gone the critters will move on looking for food.
