Uber Eats to Test Flying Food to Customers by Drone in San Diego

Good choice, San Diegans are already used to low-flying aircraft buzzing between buildings.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;youtu.be&#x2F;9ql5iwIybB8?t=711" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;youtu.be&#x2F;9ql5iwIybB8?t=711</a>

The backlash from the public as soon as they hear how horrible &#x2F; annoying these things sound may present a roadblock to rolling them out broadly.

Prediction: GPS jammers will become a huge thing and maybe even a sport. People are not going to like this at all. I fly drones. They are very noisy for just one, let alone hundreds&#x2F;thousands. Combine this with Amazon delivering packages and stuff. Our skies are about to become a lot more crowded, <i>noisy</i> and distracting.

If there is food flying around town unattended, how long until the crows, robins, owls, falcons, etc start going after it?

Serious question.<p>Why do people use Uber Eats? One of the benefits of living in an Urban area is the ability to walk places. I also get using Uber eats if you’re ordering in with family or friends.<p>That’s not what I see with Uber eats. I see people ordering one sub from Firehouse. Or a burger from McDonald’s. I’ve never felt so lazy I needed to tip someone and pay extra for McDonald’s or Chipotle and I can be lazy.<p>Same with grocery shopping. I’d never pay extra to have someone do it for me but it’s pretty popular in my area.
