Résumé

A Brief Desert Survival Guide Based On An Apparently Fictional Lost & Found Story Meet Brad, a 20-year-old Silicon Valley coder whose life revolves around screens and strategy games. Imagine him: unruly brown hair that looks like it's been in a wrestling match with a keyboard, glasses that slide down his nose every five minutes, and a wardrobe dominated by tech conference tees and cargo shorts-because obviously, extra pockets are prime real estate for USB sticks and emergency snacks.
Brad's idea of adventure usually maxes out at tackling a brutal debugging session or conquering a particularly tricky video game. So, when his friends talked him into a trip to Egypt, Brad thought, Why not? His knowledge of the pyramids was limited to one vaguely remembered documentary-or maybe it was a video game cutscene-but how hard could it be? After all, he had endured last year's caffeine shortage during a grueling hackathon.
Surely, the Egyptian heat couldn't be much worse than the server room's AC malfunction. At first, the trip was smooth. Brad followed his Google Maps itinerary, happily photographing camels and ruins, feeling like a low-budget Indiana Jones in cargo shorts. But things took a turn when Brad, fueled by his self-assured wanderlust, wandered way off the beaten path-like, seriously off. One moment, he was marveling at history; the next, he was alone in the vast expanse of the desert.
The tour group? Long gone. His phone? GPS dead. Now, Brad found himself face-to-face with endless dunes, a blazing sun, and zero clues about how to get back. He clutched his backpack, which contained only a couple of water bottles, some questionable snacks, and the survival tips he remembered from YouTube. And that's how Brad-a guy whose biggest battles typically involve lag and software bugs-found himself stranded in the Sahara Desert, where there was no code to debug and no restart button.
