On August 23rd - only nine days after the Taliban unexpectedly seized the capital - more than 21,000 people were evacuated in what was also the largest single day airlift in history.
Gabriel Stines, a software engineer with Kessel Run that works on Slapshot said that there was a brief outage on that day, due to SlapShot accommodating anywhere from 20 to 200 missions. After fixing the outage, which would cause the application’s user interface to take 3-6 minutes to load, he and other members of the Kessel Run team cut those times down to around 3 seconds, saving precious time, resources and lives.
Slapshot was also being used for passenger manifest, he said, which involved arguably the most difficult part of the evacuation - the logistics.
