De l’inutilité des hackatons, parfois : le cas britannique.
In Britain, the reason emergency responders aren’t rescuing you is because politicians have their thumbs up their arses and are arguing about budgets and inter-agency responsibilities, and doing a lot of dick-swinging and blame-gaming to go with it.
In Britain, we have the technology and the capability to solve these problems in a way that other country’s don’t. The reason we don’t seem to be able to fix it is because of failures of governance, failure to invest in public services and emergency services, failure to contemplate the big picture of environmental responsibility, and probably a lot of other things starting with the word “failure”.
