Somewhat uncannily, I am currently in Switzerland (from the UK), working on a project to install a 13PB object store for the Montreux Jazz archives (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11040853).
Last night, we had a meal out in Lausanne with our hosts and when walking back to the car, we saw a small animal dash across the road. Our hosts, in French, described this 'animal who eat cables', and we ended up translating this into 'ferret'. Maybe our 'ferret' was on his or her way to/from the scene of the crime.
Regrettably I cannot give a description that will aid in its capture for interview.
PS: We completed the initialisation of the object store today (Friday 29th April) and will be testing with the customer on Monday for handover on Weds. We started work within one hour of flying to site last Saturday (I have two colleagues over from the USA) and we worked some 8am-11pm days to make it happen. We are knackered!
