How they wrecked the economy.
They both are overdue for a thorough overhaul, to the degree that they should even exist.
AOC
…is getting a primary challenge. I’m not sure I necessarily want to see her go away.
Blaming Europe
“That’s what Xi said.”
The 737 MAX
It was using Clinton-era flight computers. This is a common problem in aerospace. New avionics can’t necessarily be trusted for mission-critical tasks. The Shuttle computers were basically IBM-360s, all the way into the 90s.
Launch Delayed By Virus
OK, can someone explain why the Space Command (I refuse to call it a force) is delaying a GPS launch on a Falcon 9 until the end of June, but NASA still plans to go ahead with the Commercial Crew test flight in May?
Takeout/Delivery
I’ve never worried about the food itself; my concern is the packaging. As it says, take the food out of it, dispose, and wash your hands. It’s also good that the drive-through cashiers are holding out the machine for you to insert your card in, rather than taking it from you and handing it back.
My Favorite New Twitter Account
A New Netflix Series
This may be entertaining, but the notion that the purpose of the Space Force is to go back to the moon is a false premise. But of course, now everyone will think that it is, because they saw it on a teevee show.
Linda Tripp
RIP.
She was the only person in that mess who told the truth, or showed any integrity, and she paid a societal price for it. She was brutalized by the Clinton-worshipping media, and the “comedians” on SNL.
This is a reminder that we really need an early-detection capability for pancreatic cancer.
Masten
Congratulations on the award. Let’s hope they can do it, and on schedule. We’re going to see a lot of lunar activity in the coming years, regardless of Artemis.
