As NASA increasingly relies on commercial space, there are some troubling signs
  • There are some good points in the article and I think some poor comparisons. I have seen examples of what they mention. NASA is still demanding things from companies like a cost plus contract but paying them like a firm fixed price contract. This basically means that the only companies that will succeed in the long run are those that have billionaire funding instead of shareholders. Assuming SpaceX doesn't have cost overruns is just silly, it's just that NASA doesn't see them.

  • Portland’s ranked-choice debut causes voter engagement to crater; 1 in 5 who cast ballots chose no one for City Council
  • Odd implementation of ranked choice. Probably too many choices without party affiliation listed for voters that didn't come into the booth having already researched the choices. Sad because this will probably get used to say the whole concept is bad.

  • Boeing’s strike ends after machinists approve new labor contract with 38% wage increases
  • I had thought that they were going after more retirement benefits, only thing I saw in the article was a $ 5k 401k contribution. The comments didn't make sense calling this deal something that would help them to "retire with dignity" whatever that means. Would have been cool (but next to impossible) if they would have gotten back some sort of pension.

  • Starfish memory
  • My 4 year old's memory ability is all over the place. One day forgets mid sentence what he was talking about about or can't remember if he is wearing pants, then later says, "remember 3 months ago when you promised me a Popsicle" or repeats verbatim the theme song for some random show.
