I think it's more because printers (used to) print going down. I don;t see why it would matter in the least that crts draw the top first, if that is indeed the case. But for old printers where the paper is continuous, down is "forward" and there is no going back.
I think the printers and the old monitors reason are basically the same? Scanlines used to be a "you have now to set this pixel, if you missed it, you get next scan." It is an oddly accurate mental model to think of the screen as printing an image every scan.
There are numbers from Nintendo on the breakdown between mobile and dock usage, and they indicate a larger percentage of users play undocked vs docked.
I saw the same numbers. They are from 2017 just months after it was released, back before many Nintendo exclusives had been released and even these numbers show 70% of users spend significant amount of time docked.
I work at a restaurant with door dash and grub hub. Unless there is something I have missed about doordash raising the prices, it’s the restaurants who are raising their delivery prices to stay profitable right now. Where I work every menu item has a .50$ to 1.50$ markup for delivery to make up for the some of what delivery services take from the restaurant.
I wish I could be more specific but I’m just working here while in school. I don’t really know the full detail of what doordash charges us.
It really depends on what the restaurant wants to do.
If a restaurant is just present to get existing customer orders - then they pay little, but if they want to expand their user base... marketing isn't free.
Browser extensions are very similar, just as an extension instead of direct. Unfortunately, it's difficult to use non-store extensions in Chrome, and Google pretty much blocks anything that allows youtube downloads from the store. youtube-dl is likely the most popular option for this, and even then, the same (deeply flawed) logic could be used against any of them.
I currently work in a restaurant with doordash. While I rarely have to take to-go orders and doordash orders, I see my Coworkers who hate taking doordash orders.
First of all, there's no tips for doordash orders. On a busy night our Togo person makes ~50 in tips, so they just don't pay as much attention to the door dash orders.
Second, no matter how long we quote the order, the driver always shows up immediately and gets in the way of the servers and bussers and other customers (its a fairly small restaurant with no waiting area) so usually we are rushing to try and finish the order to get them to leave.
I don't know a single person in the restaurant except the owner who likes the doordash system, but as long as people keep ordering it'll stay
You missed the point. No one at the restaurant is getting a tip. The same person who would package up the food if you picked up in person (and who you would customarily tip) is the same person packaging up DoorDash orders, but with no incentive. The person getting tipped is the delivery service employee.
I am surprised that to-go orders are tipped in the first place.
Aren't waiters tipped because the law allows them to be paid below minimum wage?
AFAIK, behind the counter service people get paid commensurately, so tipping them doesn't make sense.
On the west coast waiters make minimum wage and there is still a tipping culture. Because of this, being a server or a waiter can be a very high paying job. To-go orders usually get tipped, but closer to 5-10% as opposed to the standard 15-20 for a sit down restaurant.
