Backreaction: Experiments with GPS
The biggest mystery in the universe is clearly the male brain. What happens if you leave my husband alone with a GPS receiver? He’ll spend several hours measuring the position of a table. For what I’m concerned the table is on the patio. Besides this, I’m every product developers nightmare since instead of reading manuals or tutorials I randomly click or push buttons till I’ve figured out what they’re good for. That’s a good procedure to find out every single way to crash the system, but usually not particularly efficient to actually use the device or software. Stefan instead goes and reads the manual!
GPS receivers are the ultimate guy toy, since it’s an electronic gadget which pretty much guarantees you’ll never have to stop to ask for directions.
It’s actually his mother’s.
