I work for a NASA contractor. This is a very stupid, bad move, since young and recently-called-up civil servant talent are often the people we really want to keep. We will be hurting on the Artemis program if the probationary civil servants all fired.
In general, I agree that a thorough house-cleaning of NASA would be great for technical achievement, but this is one of the stupidest ways you could do it.
- bamboozled 2y agoDo you think it was stupid or premeditated ?
- quacked 2y agoBoth.

Unfortunately it's business as usual for the X-style organization reform model. (Not that Musk was the first to do this, of course.)
- quacked 2y agoI am no fan of Musk, but I have always admired his tactics and insights as a technical executive. His actions in X and the government are bizarre, though. I am starting to wonder if he aims to take control of the government directly within his lifetime.
