   Private money is what kicked off the National Parks system in the US. Glad to see this happening anywhere. I hope it stays in the public trust though.

   Anecdotal story: A few years ago I worked with ex-Boeing employees from Altus AFB. They were disgusted by the quality control of the delivered C-17 Globemasters. Construction garbage in the wall panels, etc. Like the article, their complain

   That's the truth. In the case of October 7 (and 9/11 for that matter) lots of useful info was coming in, and regardless of the source, it was actively ignored. Human error at it's best. AI analysis is just another tool but ul

    "Where will streaming video go next? My guess is that media conglomerates with ties to communications companies will form a team-up. Comcast (NBCUniversal) and AT&T (Warner) may partner with Disney to take the lead on at least one

    This is a story that could be written over and over again. Companies with big R&D budgets but not nimble enough any more to take advantage.

    The news is that antibodies were created from scratch for the first time. That's it. You might as well be complaining that a baby taking its first steps didn't run a 5k.

    I look through the antiques subreddit often and lots of really nice quality furniture is hardly valued now because it's out of style. A good quality sofa should be able to be re-foamed and fabriced forever but I think we're all ju
