Legacy Archipelago: a series of systems built one after another, each aimed to replace the previous one. For each step the new system only covered ~80% of the original functionality so the previous one was never decommissioned. All versions in use. [v1]->[v2]->[v3]->[v4]->[v5]

RTO: everyone wants to be in town on the same day; therefore there are not enough desks; therefore people spend the day milling about and sitting in nearby coffee shops. A good time had by all.

TIL: serde_json_path_to_error Super useful drop-in replacement for serde_json that produces detailed error messages - really handy when trying to figure out where your deserialisation failed.
