For the record, the reason I have done this work and continued to do it every single day since is because I never want anyone else to hear the deafening cries of their 14 year old sister after four of her friends were slaughtered by a 19 year old with an AR-15.

Cumulative R&D expenses for Apple, Google, Meta, and Microsoft were ~$141 billion in FY23. That number has sextupled over the past decade.

some replies think i’m making fun of this—i’m not! this is an apex design language.

in a world where ppl call microservices to render UI elements to order food or w/e, these guys are using Platonic solids in labview to send 32 megajoules of hypersonic ordnance through armor

When you hear people complain about a rocket launch date slipping, just remind them of these words from Gene Kranz. Never forget

(This is serious, actually breaking out the real Gene)

"Spaceflight will never tolerate carelessness, incapacity, and neglect. Somewhere, somehow, we screwed up. It could have been in design, build, or test. Whatever it was, we should have caught it. We were too gung-ho about the schedule and we locked out all of the problems we saw each day in our work. Every element of the program was in trouble and so were we. The simulators were not working, Mission Control was behind in virtually every area, and the flight and test procedures changed daily. Nothing we did had any shelf life. Not one of us stood up and said, ‘Dammit, stop!’ I don’t know what Thompson’s committee will find as the cause, but I know what I find. We are the cause! We were not ready! We did not do our job. We were rolling the dice, hoping that things would come together by launch day, when in our hearts we knew it would take a miracle. We were pushing the schedule and betting that the Cape would slip before we did."

The funds “for Ukraine” primarily go to US companies. There is a detailed map obtained by Politico and also a map, which I made last year, showcasing that fact. These are top twelve which benefit the most:

1. Arizona: $1.978 billion
2. Pennsylvania: $1.964 billion
3. Arkansas: $1.272 billion
4. Wisconsin: $1.021 billion
5. Florida: $0.987 billion
6. Texas: $0.930 billion
7. Mississippi: 0.924 billion
8. West Virginia: $0.763 billion
9. Michigan: $0.737 billion
10. California: $0.724 billion
11. Missouri: $0.692 billion
12. Ohio: $0.684 billion

This is US tax payer money for US jobs. It is investment in those states so that US allies can fight a war so that US soldiers do not have to fight. It is a win-win for both sides, the US and their allies. Everyone saying something differently, is not only lying but trying to obstruct this successful endeavor. And currently Republicans have put this on hold.

That are simple facts.

@Atrios Jamie Dimon has never suffered consequences for saying anything. As a consequence, he will continue to say anything. "Saying nice things about Trump" is no different than "Saying nice things about WeWork" and if it makes money, why not.

@Aviation_Intel "the P-35B weighs around 4.6 tons and has a length of approximately 33 feet." That's damn near a T-38 in a tube.

Dear Hezbollah supporters in my notifications, it has been 4 years to the day since Qassem Soleimani was killed by Donald Trump and all your precious axis has done about it in that time is blow up a Ukrainian passenger plane full of Iranian civilians.
