Interesting to me that Shackelton and the Endurance keep popping up on HN. I happened to read "South" some years ago and it had a big impact on me as someone who loves the outdoors.

I just didn't expect it to keep popping up in a technology focussed community. Yet I can see the appeal. The sheer determination of Shackelton and crew should be inspiring to all people.

A lot of us software devs can relate to Shackleton, because we have also been on a death march.
But Shackleton somehow avoided death marches. Did you mean Scott?
