  1. Really interesting podcast interview with financier Bill Browder on Putin. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/stay-tuned-with-preet/id1265845136?i=1000558237592
  2. Socialism is also a political theory.
  3. https://twitter.com/rshereme/status/1513274193600819205?s=20&t=SjLEhMzuhxY7Abmbu1FEFQ Russia bombed cisterns with nitric acid in the city of Rubizhne (Luhansk region). They turned Ukrainian factory into a chemical weapon against Ukrainian people.
  4. You first, but I can already assume what you had. What qualifies me to make that statement? Someone who had Nav commanders and Pilot commanders and spent 16 years in the MAF. I was a -135 Boom, but that really doesn’t matter. I also currently work on the KC-46 program and interact with the MAF on a daily basis.
  5. AMC at least has shed a majority of Nav commanders, which is a good thing.
  6. You’re literally offering something to someone hoping for a positive outcome in your favor. That’s literally the definition of a bribe.
  7. It’s not uncommon in the MAF to have downgrades on a Q-1. Stupidest Form 8 I ever saw was from my Sq/CC at the -135 FTU. He gave some initial qual pilot student four downgrades and four commendables on a instrument sim check, as a Q-1. I would’ve just called it a day with a Q-1 and verbally debriefed it. The back of the Form 8 looked like a book chapter.
  8. What was the whole video context before that propaganda site edited their hot take and took his comment out of context?

  10. https://www.nytimes.com/video/world/europe/100000008266864/russia-army-radio-makariv.html?smid=em-share&fbclid=IwAR3UA-nSWFuAx10KcGIA4sY_p5kny5mi6Lz-I1OVBOu1T3AworS1UpF1BoA
  11. I posted a job with my company on here awhile back. Some O-5 type, who most likely has been in the Air Force in some capacity since he was 18, stated that the salary looked a little low (Colorado state law states you have to provide a salary range on all job postings). I laughed because I was curious what he would know what was a competitive salary compared to the position since he’s been in the military a majority of his life? I agree about moving straight into leadership/management roles. Maybe with 20+ years of experience and an Ivy League school on their resume, maybe.
  12. That’s because when I don’t hire you, I don’t need to provide you a reason. We just “decided to move forward with other applicants.” If you want to sue, good luck.
  13. Unofficially, ageism does exist. This is especially apparent in tech.
  14. A lot of FGO/SNCOs eat humble pie when they realize they have delusions of grandeur of how much they’re “worth,” salary wise, when they get out .
  15. RVS 2.0 is being tested.

  17. It works everyday.
  18. Arnold with a message to Russians. https://www.reddit.com/r/ukraine/comments/tg915y/arnold_schwarzenegger_has_a_personal_message_for/
  19. The very last second you can see a dude running out of it, on fire.

    USAA

    USAA wants that for a Model 3 for six months with a clean record. Of course that’s in Colorado, which has insane insurance rates due to the Front Range getting the most amount of hail in the U.S.

    USAA

    State Farm wants $942 for six months with $250/$250 comprehensive (w/glass)/collision deductible. With USAA they want $1410 for six months for similar coverage.

    USAA

    Anyone insure an electric vehicle (e.g., Tesla Model 3) with USAA? For a clean record and being a member for 22 years the rates I'm getting compared to State Farm are insane.
