The world's first webcam (1991) was devised by researchers at Cambridge University to save them fruitless journeys to the one coffee machine that served several areas.
Using kettlecam they could check to see if enough coffee was in the pot, or whether or not there was a queue.
Stupid this as I can foresee a scenario where they all see the pot is empty, and everybody sits at their desk waiting for everybody else to fill it up.
Other issues might arise where they see somebody helping themselves to the last drop and wandering off without refilling it for the next caffeine addict. I can imagine undignified academic fuming and vitriol on the message boards like the ones we see here when a player suffers a loss of form.

Over a quarter of all known animal species are beetles
There are 350,000 different species of beetles on Earth described so far, and many more that are still undiscovered. That’s more than 25% of all animals species and about 20% off all living species including plants.
As some noted biologist (J B Haldane) once noted: "The Creator, if He exists, has an inordinate fondness for beetles".

During his career as a heavyweight, the heaviest weight Henry Cooper fought at was 13 stone 10 pounds. (He told me that during a brilliant hour and a half I spent chatting with him. Just me and him -1990's).
