I recall the original OSS included some more hands-on techniques, like throwing your files (the ones you grind with) into the drawer instead of laying them down carefully. I wonder what the equivalent in software dev. would be. Throw files into folders with a lot of force? Ddos? The legitimacy of this document has been questioned, but it is surely food for thought.

(A pegboard or tool block could have easily mitigated any wrong handling of the tools?)
