    Dump Term 2, Part 2: "A third term would be a big shattering."

    "Not cutting evenly" and "Cutting some things while growing others" are two fundamentally different things, so I get where Handy is coming from. Not cutting evenly still guarantees that there will be a net cut to the size of government. Cutting a $150M from the national parks while adding...

    Business, Economics, and Taxes: Eat Cereal for Dinner

    Gas in Florida, where I live , is $3.20. Yes, cheap by national standards, but let’s be serious.

    NCAA Hockey - 2023/24 **Insert Witty Tagline**

    I just can't help it: https://youtu.be/fiwwAPkXmmA I'm definitely rooting for TSU to succeed - shame UAH (2 hrs away) isn't there any more....

    The States : red states in a race to the bottom

    Huh. One of those mismanaged, anti-business blue states, too. Go figure.

    Business, Economics, and Taxes: Eat Cereal for Dinner

    Because that will make things better? If I were on the board, I'd be ready to boot him to....well, Mars, let's say. (just for reference, TSLA is still going to close 60% higher than a year ago - they're still burning down a *tremendous* backlog of irrational exuberance)

    Space Exploration II: Always Looking up

    The full-scale demonstrator that they mention is slated to fly in 2027 is being built by Scaled Composites (Burt and Dick Rutan’s old outfit that built the round-the-world Voyager aircraft), which is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Northrop Grumman. That’s a lot of heritage and expertise in...

    Space Exploration II: Always Looking up

    I mean, in the generic sense that ANY company who thinks it could generate shareholder value by making commercial aircraft ought to be interested….but under those criteria, I don’t know of any evidence that they’re any more interested than, say Burger King. When I worked there (2002-2005), F-22...

    Space Exploration II: Always Looking up

    Goodness no. Read up on: KC-46, Air Force One, MQ-25, T-7A. The only aircraft that Boeing Defense has touched recently that didn't turn to complete shit is F-15E/X, and that is a McDonnell-Douglas heritage design.

    Business, Economics, and Taxes: Eat Cereal for Dinner

    The current General Manager of our (Northrop's) research and advanced design division started as a janitor - he probably pulls down ~$2M/year. We have also had admins (secretaries) who made it to VP.

    Business, Economics, and Taxes: Eat Cereal for Dinner

    Fully agree. AI may be okay for getting the 80% solution (so, a great tool for engineers!), but 80% will never be good enough for law, medicine, safety-critical applications, etc. Unless you're Trump, I guess.....

    My father-in-law, a naturalized Pakistani-American with a TS clearance who worked in defense his whole career, was just in Italy on businesss (for his non-defense retirement career). He was supposed to arrive back in the US on Wednesday, and none of his family has heard from him for 2 days...

    Once again, Trump is about to claim the biggest, most beautifulest, victory by…..going back to the status quo ante. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/latino/trump-farmworkers-hotel-workers-undocumented-legal-rcna200722

    SCOTUS: sponsored by Harlan Crow

    Doesn’t matter who they deputize. Deputies can’t remove Trump from office nor force his hand to sign a rescission of unconditional EOs. What’s the remedy?

    World Soccer XXXI: Golden Generation?

    Oh - I didn't even think about that....48 teams with GD used in any tiebreaker is the exact opposite of a mercy rule. The group stage is going to be horrifying.
