The Pentagon announced in March its largest-ever budget: $842 billion. Almost half will go to defense contractors. A six-month 60 Minutes investigation found that contractors are overcharging the Pentagon on almost everything. https://t.co/2EmFD4dvS3

This was a secret until a Scottish author researching his book on the Bismarck chase found out who was on the training flight and got Smith on the telephone. If memory serves, the book is "Pursuit" by Ludovic Kennedy, published in 1975. https://t.co/t5l6IvHXy4

#OTD 1941, U.S. Navy pilot ENS “Tuck” Smith spotted the Bismarck and then transmitted the German battleship's coordinates. The U.S. was officially neutral at the time but Smith was secretly training RAF pilots to fly PBY Catalina seaplanes. The next day would be Bismarck's last. pic.twitter.com/T8HaWarb1v

It took days, but it felt so good. Welp, I guess that was just a cruel joke. Not by @micahflee but by the goon squad who now apparently run that hellsite. Apparently I am one of those people whose tweet archive was mysteriously restored in the past week. https://www.theverge.com/2023/5/22/23732497/tw...

Attached: 1 image I often see people site Brooks's comments that development can't be sped up by adding people and, in fact, adding people only makes projects later but, in practice, I've generally seen adding people speed things up and, in a 20 year career across multiple fields, I'm not sure I've ever seen an example of adding people causing a late project to become later.
