These scientists should play Horizon Zero Dawn and seriously reconsider. This feels like a bad idea (however technologically impressive it is).

Misleiding title, given that this is in the article;

"Of course, we still monitor all the usual suspects: latency, error rates, infrastructure health, etc. Heartbeat metrics don’t replace those – they complement them. They’re your shortcut to understanding customer impact, fast."

While the chances of getting caught are low, I wouldn't want to risk this for insurance. If you are involved in a crash for any reason I don't think they are going to cover it if you modified this stuff on purpose.

Playing games on PC has been a trigger for me for a long time and gets uncomfortable quickly. I got a PSVR2 headset last year and it's a great way for me to play games and not be in the same mostly static position all day. I can play games on it without any discomfort (other than wearing the headset itself which isn't great if it's a really hot day) and you can switch up sitting/standing which I also like.
