At one company (think bank/financial services) I was at as a "software development supervisor" I had to run a daily standup/scrum meeting every day, for 3 years. It really became oppressive over time. That company eventually had layoffs and I left. But they were still doing the daily standup, even when there were only 3 people left.

I feel like a truck convoy of 10 trucks with one or two humans in the first truck (or first and last) and getting alerts seems more doable.
Indeed there are multiple such optimizations. One that occurs to me is a hub/spoke model where inter-city/state is driverless, from/to truck "yards" on the outskirts of cities. Then human drivers take over and drive the last few miles. Drivers get to go home every night and lead normal lives instead of living on the road.

What a neat web development stack, just html & database! No back-end and no front-end required.
How is authentication/authorization handled with this stack? Or sign up with email validation and password reset?
I checked https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/7400-series_integrated_circuit... and gate delay (tpd) for 74HC is 15 ns.
I wouldn't expect more than 1 MIPS, which is what the DEC VAX 11/780 was doing around 1980.
(Awesome one-man project, if that's the case.)
Wire length matching would seem to be a big factor in attaining the highest performance.
Very interesting indeed:

> To enable the simulation of a large number of coupled harmonic oscillators, we came up with a mapping that encodes the positions and velocities of all masses and springs into the quantum wavefunction of a system of qubits. Since the number of parameters describing the wavefunction of a system of qubits grows exponentially with the number of qubits, we can encode the information of N balls into a quantum mechanical system of only about log(N) qubits.

Cheap SEMs are also useful for electron beam lithography, which has gotten some attention lately with Canons machine <10nm process.
