Stop drinking the cool aid. USAID was 90% grift, 5% foreign propaganda, and 5% actual aid to people in need. Its sad how easily people like you get duped and enraged.

Theres nothing stopping you from stepping in Bill. I wonder why he doesn't..... Maybe its as if there was hardly any aid and mostly grift.

Which people asked for this? (Besides the beauracrats)

500 million euros is not a "modest" fine. This isn't about competition, Europe offers no competition. This is purely about jealousy and greed. Is Europe good for anything besides leeching money off Americans?

So weird to see so many people assume a random professor was targeted by the President, like really? Have ya'll lost THAT much ability to think rationally? Likely did something sketchy for China, like many people in academia do. Would appreciate some transparency on the matter.

https://www.dictionary.com/browse/terrorism "the unlawful use of violence or threats to intimidate or coerce a civilian population or government, with the goal of furthering political, social, or ideological objectives." It is politically motivated violence and does indeed fit the definition.

Thinking anyone can buy an election in a country with 100 million voters IS deranged, especially considering the losing side outspent the winning side.

This program was supposed to provide them with broadband and after several years has connected virtually zero homes. I don't see how finally getting some broadband is "hurting themselves" when Starlink is available immediately and laying the fiber would have taken another decade, or two (if...

Unfortunately this seems to be the only way to get meaningful change in Washington

Independent meant "unelected and unaccountable" No government organization should ever be above the will of the people, anything less is undemocratic.

This whole premise that they aren't allowed to look at government data and that it is somehow a "breach" is weird to me. You all realize that politicians have been hiring consultants and advisors for decades upon decades and provide them with government data to help with forming policy...

Why is this being tracked against car crashes in the first place? Kind of weird.

NASA's budget (and indeed the entire U.S. budget) is still directed by Congress.

Jared Isaacman should focus NASA on space science, where it has always led and innovated, to accomplish goals that no private company would want to risk - think Europa Clipper, Parker Solar Probe, JWST, Rovers and the insane engineering of the sky-crane that delivered them. None of this...

Really? Cause last I checked Twitter is still up and running, just rebranded. Weird to suggest that still having a functioning platform and development team after cutting 3/4 of the staff is a failure.

Since when is distilling ChatGPT "novel"? Chinese company copies foreign IP and lies about it. This has been happening for 3 decades. Nothing new or surprising.

Seems likely now that there hasn't been a breakthrough, but rather a Chinese company lying about their product and stealing the IP (shocking, I know right....). They just CTRL+C CTRL+V'd ChatGPT. https://www.ft.com/content/a0dfedd1-5255-4fa9-8ccc-1fe01de87ea6

Did you read the article? This system is about defense. Defense against missiles - the only real military threat to the U.S.

This really is the way. The best way to deal with him is to ignore him. Seeing his name plastered all over the news all the time no doubt gives him a raging hard on.

Please realise that companies pay very close attention to their employees' performance metrics. Now that they can use a purely performance based approach it is super easy to justify anyone who actually has the skills for the job with data or experience. Government employees should be held to...
