Yesterday I tweeted about visualizing dark stores density in Indian cities using an isochrone map And @anupbhat30 made this in just under an hour! Almost everyone lives a 10 min bike ride away from a dark store. The highest density areas are in fact 10 minutes away on *foot* The surprising find is that there's often multiple stores of the same vendor within a 10 minute bike ride. See it yourself: darkstoremap.in

One more thing. Our 10 minute delivery promise is enabled by the density of stores around your homes. It’s not enabled by asking delivery partners to drive fast. Delivery partners don’t even have a timer on their app to indicate what was the original time promised to the customer. After you place your order on Blinkit, it is picked and packed within 2.5 minutes. And then the rider drives an average of under 2kms in about 8 minutes. That's an average of 15kmph. I understand why everybody thinks why 10 minutes must be risking lives, because it is indeed hard to imagine the sheer complexity of the system design which enables quick deliveries. Also, if you've ever wanted to know why millions of Indians voluntarily take up platform work and sometimes even prefer it to regular jobs, JUST ASK any rider partner when you get your next food or grocery order. You will be humbled by how rational and honest they will be with you. Having said that, no system is perfect, and we are all for making it better than today. However, it is far from what it is being portrayed on social media by people who don't understand how our system works and why. If I were outside the system, I would also believe that gig workers are being exploited, but that's not true.

Congratulation @animeshdut16137 on completing our quest and having such a great mindset the whole time - iterating constantly, and always open to learning more! Check out his work here and DM if you'd like to connect with him!

What if I told you your grandparents’ food had more vitamins & minerals than what’s on your plate today? 🥬😳 We can do better. That’s why we built Annapurna-AI — food, reimagined for real nutrition.

Anyone building a global talent discovery system has to build for handling India scale at the top of the funnel, or just give up on global ambitions I sympathize with the codeforces founders because it’s intrinsically a hard problem. Large masses of people desperate for opportunity will try everything they can to game anything that can be gamed @quest_sh is our attempt to take on the problem at India scale, and if it works here, it might just work universally

Codeforces may ban Indians after what happened today.
