“One day this war will end. And history won’t ask what we said, it will ask what we did. Ukraine is answering that question. Now it’s time for the rest of us to answer it too.” Prince Harry at the Kyiv Security Forum today.
Thank you! 🇺🇦

Prince Harry has visited Ukraine 3 times since the start of the full scale invasion. He just came unannounced, today.
Prince Harry doesn’t have bone spurs. Be like the Prince.

@whatisnuclear @Casillic Not sure I'd want to see old nuclear powered commercial ships being sold off to three-deep shadow corporations who then sell them off to unknown buyers.

I've been obsessed with the vast and untapped potential of civilian nuclear power at sea forever. I'm now the Chief Nuclear Officer at an exciting new company bringing nuclear power to maritime applications. There's much to do, so I'm looking for passionate and highly-skilled people who want to embark on this journey with me. Hit me up if you or someone you know may be interested. We need a Nuclear Licensing expert first, but will have many more openings in the pipeline.
*The company is currently operating in stealth mode

@the_engi_nerd A drone pilot sitting in Nevada,
Sipped coffee and munched on a tostada,
With a click of his mouse,
He demolished a house,
Then clocked out and drove home to his dacha.

I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
That the F-35 Block 4 upgrade
Will take seventeen years

On Orion’s reentry: “And then there was a point—there’s something that I feel that I am not ready to say to the public yet.”

Should computer science and basic coding still be taught in schools at all?
Should writing?
In my interview with the President of @MIT, Sally Kornbluth, she asked "I am not sure how much you need to have in your head to think creatively versus how much you have to offload"
One of the biggest concerns I hear from CEOs & engineering leaders:
Junior devs who’ve never studied or wrestled with great code are skipping straight to letting AI write it for them.
If this continues, in 10 years we’ll have very few engineers left who actually know how to think through it.

Making the rounds in aviation circle about taxiing at ORD.
I know the guy that made this. He’s a KC-10 bro. Good guy.
KC-10 folks have a history of making media. “Hot cause I’m deployed” came out 18 years ago. They guys got in trouble because a frequency was shown on the video…which was BS, it wasn’t secret or anything, they just wanted to flex. “Houck Daddy” was a dude we all liked & has happily been at Delta for a long time now. I don’t know what happened to Sims, but he did well last I heard, along with everyone else in the video (link in next comment(.

“Ruszkik haza!” on the Budapest metro. What a moment.

@loosenedspirit @cljack @svenllama An important skill when stopped at a light on a very steep street and then you have to proceed when it turns green.
English
@cljack @svenllama Oh yeah it’s normally much more subtle looking on the street. 😂
I use the left and right sides of my foot and roll it.

Just wait until she sees you swing that arm back around to start working the manual shifter.

I have just been informed that putting your arm across the back of the passenger seat to look back while reversing does it for some women?

@CliffDeVaughn @A10TheHog They should gift those A-10's to the Army.
English
@A10TheHog Big Air Force has never liked the CAS mission, especially since the Army “duplicated” the capability with attack helicopters and other systems.
English
If so much effort has been poured into the B-52 to extend its life, even though we have other airframes that can do a similar job, then the A-10 (which is the ONLY one that can do what it does) should get fairer treatment.
Do you agree?

I use trigonometry more often than calculus in my engineering job
I did not see that coming

@TiffanyFong @remarks Looks like a slap of AMS3281. Yummm...

@Not_the_Bee OK. Let's not bag on females. Let me fix this for you: A fan caught a Mariners reporter asking Google Gemini questions for her post-game interviews.

@__el__toro__ As someone speaking from experience, getting a brand new machine tool is such an awesome moment for a 20 year old. It's a milestone etched in your mind. #longTimeAgo

My dad at the ripe old age of 21.
He was trained by the master gear cutters at Lamont Gear, learning how to setup and run every machine on the floor.
Two bits of trivia:
- That Liebherr hobber had just been purchased directly from a trade show
- The big gear being cut is actually a cast iron center section with steel bands fitted to the OD (you can see this on the big blank sitting on the ground to the right of the machine)

42.5 inches of snow in the last 3 days at Donner Summit, CA.
The biggest April 3-day storm since 1983.
A truly historic spring storm.
