Wilderness

Out here by myself in 2016 at a place almost totally inaccessible to normal people. Motorcycle stuck on that hill for several hours. There’s no water! Nowadays I stay home, look at the picture.

Eastern Sierra in the far distance. Back in 2007, M & I hiked all day in the scorching heat trying to reach Papoose Flat, where those little sharp peaks are in the distance (left of center). Had to turn around because the sun was beginning to set. Made it back to the car just in time before our water ran out.

Peak Effort

Flag Hill – Sunol Regional Wilderness
  1. Question every requirement; have the name of the person who made it.
  2. Delete any part or process you can do without. Restore 10% back later if necessary.
  3. Simplify & optimize the remaining parts/processes.
  4. Accelerate the cycle time.
  5. Automate only after doing all the above, and the bugs have been shaken out.
