The New Commercial Space Bill
Bob Zimmerman has some thoughts, and suggestions for improving it.
“Male Feminist Gamers”
Really, “male” “feminist” gamers. They keep using those words together. I’m not sure they mean what they think they mean.

A. J. Mackenzie has run the numbers on the probability of the new hires flying, given NASA’s current (lack of) plans.
