Two scientists walk through a cluttered old-fashioned science laboratory.

The female scientist says 
“Analogue instruments! Paper records! Chalk boards! I thought you'd agreed to modernise the laboratory?”

The male scientist replies
“That's what i'm so excited about: we have moved to cloud-based storage for our data!”

They step out onto a balcony. She says:
“Please tell me you haven't built a library zeppelin” 

This is exactly what he has done. It floats across the sky and he adds
“It's got a fax machine!”

Book look: The secrets of consulting, by Gerald Weinberg - neil-vass.com I’d seen recommendations for this book in lots of places, for years, before I got round to reading it. I assumed it’d be long, serious, and probably not too relevant to me (my job isn’t consultancy). ...
