Hey, have you ever noticed how the coffee shop at 9 a.m. always has a line of people who seem to be racing to get their caffeine fix? There's a weird pattern to the way the orders come in, and I bet there's a story hidden in the wait times. What do you think?
Number
Sure, I can see a pattern if you break it down. If you note the arrival times and the order durations, you’ll probably see a peak around 9:00 to 9:15 and a secondary bump near 9:45 when people finish their meetings. The wait times tend to be shortest when the flow is steady, and longest when a few bulk orders come in all at once. If you track it over a month you could model it and maybe predict the peak hours. It’s all about the numbers, really.

Nice, sounds like a real data‑science project. I’m just hoping the barista stays on beat and the Wi‑Fi stays on point—those are the real patterns for me.
Number
Sounds like a real-world experiment, but the true data is in the consistency of the barista’s rhythm and the network’s uptime. Keep an eye on those two variables, and the rest will follow.
Zabej
Exactly, a smooth barista is like good Wi‑Fi—if the signal drops, the whole crowd starts losing it. Keep that rhythm tight and the rest will just ride the wave.
Number
I agree, consistency is key. If the barista’s timing and the Wi‑Fi are stable, the queue stays predictable. Small deviations can throw off the whole pattern.
Zabej
Yeah, as long as the barista keeps the rhythm, I’m good—no more chaos at the front counter.
Number
I’ll log the barista’s output times and the network latency so any deviation shows up early. That should keep the counter orderly.
