I love how some companies have managed to turn chronic understaffing into a personal development opportunity for employees.

[Michael Weigand @_mikeweigand]

Congratulations to @elonmusk and the SpaceX team. You did what countless people said was impossible, and you did it time and time again.

Today is your day. You deserve this. May it be a glorious one.

Scott Bessent spent 20 years at Soros betting against governments that destroyed their own economies.

Now he IS the US government's economic policy.

bookmark - the most interesting Treasury Secretary interview in a decade

[Nick Minock @NickMinock]

Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger sent media a press release titled, "Governor Spanberger Signs Bills Into Law Welcoming 3,250 New Jobs, $7.1 Billion in Business Investment to Virginia."

Each company listed in the press release announced their investment in Virginia when Glenn Youngkin was governor.

I’m noticing a lot of foreigners who seem to not understand why we’d risk hundreds of lives, spend millions of dollars, and sacrifice several aircraft to rescue one guy. And the reason they don’t understand is also the reason people can’t be made American by a piece of paper.

Nothing but respect for my guy out here dropping cuts so deep they make the Mariana Trench look like a kiddie pool.

Media to American athletes: “What’s it like representing the U.S. with rising authoritarianism?”

Media to traitor representing an actual authoritarian communist regime: “Look who is back on the slopes tonight! 😍🫶”

NEW from @WSJ:

@GlennYoungkin shines, delivering Virginia surpluses, economic wins, and an over 50% approval rating in a deep blue state.

[Palmer Luckey @PalmerLuckey]

The "valid reasons" for slowness are bureaucratic BS and cowardly executives who cater to snide analysts and public-market outlets like WSJ that have nothing to say about a years-late programs and everything to say about a fire that covered 0.0002% of our test site.

I am not even exaggerating, that is the real number. It is exactly what anyone would expect from testing a system that violently blasts lithium-powered drones out of the sky. This is what weapons development SHOULD look like. Heck, Camp Pendleton has over 200 fires per year on their training range, and that is with fully mature weapons systems! Going on and on about this for paragraphs is so pathetic - oh no, they "obtained" satellite imagery that "reveals" the damage to the grass on the weapons test range.

The other examples in this story are similarly absurd - oh no, an engine sucked in a piece of FOD? STOP THE PRESSES! Autonomous boat behaves exactly as designed and stops moving when it receives a faulty command? ANDURIL HIT BY PATTERN OF SETBACKS! It is so pathetic, the type of thing that can only be written and taken seriously by people who have no idea how hardware development actually works.

@deanciriaco God forbid anyone who isn’t a sports statistician observe an amazing performance and give credit where it’s due.
