The Hugh Thompson Show
summary
Anecdotes tie tech to human behavior: a tense meeting about BGP Border Gateway Protocol ends when a speaker sees the largest spider, closes video but forgets to mute and gets four or five worried texts; a claim of 14 hours on Zoom signals new work rhythms. Stories argue that diversity (called "Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations") and creative risk‑taking solve complex problems, cite Star Trek IV's whale‑rescue metaphor for environmental fixes, and note virtual RSAC expands participation.
