Snow Crash (Score 1)

In Neal Stephenson's Snow Crash, there is a scene that it reminds me. Reading the rules for efficiency every morning to see what changes. Giving an average reading time for a document, which is a no-win scenario. She ends up scrolling down to read the times, then scans through it, scrolling back as if she was reading it to give the computer the impression she actually cared. There were other aspects of the US government from that book that also reminded me of the real-time presence indicators.
