“Advanced Space Technologies”
An interesting article on General Kwast (who reportedly has people read my book), but isn’t it obvious that he’s talking about things like Starship? Nothing magical or secret here.
Chute Problems
An interesting look at the delays for Commercial Crew.
Coming in on chutes is such a 20th-century concept. At some point we will land rockets just as we do airplanes. And if Elon has his way, that point will be within half a decade, at which point, Crew Dragon capsules may come back inside a Starship.
Farewell To California
Andrew Malcolm has had enough.
We’re thinking of getting out, too. I’ve loved this state since I first visited it on a family vacation over half a century ago, but the inmates are running the asylum in Sacramento.
[Update a couple minutes later]
Over one in three San Franciscans are thinking of leaving.
Regulating Outer Space
Thoughts from Laura Montgomery on the constitutionality of it.
Draining The Swamp
Federal bureaucrats are quitting rather than move out west.
Sounds good to me.
California “Boomerang”
As anyone with a lick of sense predicted, California’s new worker “protection” law is crushing free lancers.
The Pensacola Terror Attack
It was a failure on the part of the Navy (and the Pentagon in general). I continue to find the notion of disarming troops in bases insane.
The UK
…has finally decided in favor of Brexit.
This is good news, both in the win of a party that finally wants to be responsive to the people, and in the loss of the party of socialism and anti-Semitism.
Not a lot of time or energy for any further analysis, given that I got up at 5 AM (2 AM PST) to catch my flight to be back home today, but it seemed like quite a great week for Trump overall. In fact, even the impeachment charade in the House may be part of his good week.
[Friday-morning update]
American leftists thought that Corbyn’s inevitable victory would be their model.
Good luck with that. 🙂
[Update a few minutes later]
Mark Steyn says “Boffo Boris.”
[Update a couple minutes later]
All the Brexit defectors lost their seats.
The good news just keeps rolling in.
[Update a couple more minutes later]
No, Boris is no right winger. Well, Trump isn’t really a conservative, either.
Lacking Self Awareness
Eric Holder (!) says that Bill Barr is “too political” to be Attorney General.
