Much much smaller scale but we did a 'Salem Witch Trails' tour and it was a grey dreary autumn day and I felt it complimented the story.

In an old ops role we had a metric called ticket touches. One of my workmates had almost double of everyone else but only for that metric. We had a look and it was due to how he wrote notes in tickets instead of putting all his findings in a comment he would do it incrementally as he went along. Neither of these ways were wrong it just inflated that stat for him.

When Google glass was announced we proposed a POC for our field and datacentre folk (Telco industry). Lack of availability killed it off as we were in Australia and never made the cut for trial. The ability to feed information to them while they can use both hands, not have a laptop balanced somewhere or not be on the phone was invaluable in theory. I'm hopeful this sort of thing can become what it has potential to but I feel it will be undercooked and die off.

I'd assume the slower traffic and more people in the area would bump up pollution a bit.
Formula 1 is aiming to be carbon neutral by 2030 and engines from 2026 will be run on sustainable (ethanol based) fuels. The fleet of trucks to cart them around Europe also now run on biodiesel.

Re:Ask HN: What was your most humbling learning moment?
on Monday June 03, 2024 @02:57AM (#40560039)
I had a colleague who was old school and loved optimising, everything he reviewed come back with tiny changes that would save fractions of a ms. His nemesis was a guy who was arguably the best coder I have ever worked with. Things come to a head in one meeting and old school said if we did things his way our code would run quicker and the response was legendary 'If we coded like you it'd run quicker because most of the functionality would be still in the backlog.' I still think about that when it comes to optimisation.
