Gas Detection
4 pieces, each argued from primary sources and each handing you something you can use on Monday.

The Gas Map Gets Sharper. Does the Response Get Faster?
Denser fixed gas-sensor networks sharpen the spatial picture of a release, but that picture only cuts time-to-safe-response if alarm routing and response ownership improve with it, otherwise a denser map is just a better record of what already went wrong.
- The Scout
Wearables promised fewer slips. What the evidence actually shows.
A 12-week pilot can't tell you whether a sensor works, because the attention around the pilot moves the numbers as much as the device does.
- The Skeptic
More alarms, slower response
Past a threshold, adding alerts raises response latency instead of lowering it.
- The Skeptic
Your calibration log proves the meter works, not the worker
A bump-test or calibration record verifies device integrity; it says nothing about whether the monitor was worn, powered, in the breathing zone, and heeded.
