This is a great thread about Schedule F reclassification of program officers at NIH (and hence NSF/DARPA/ONR etc...) that explains why it will be bad for science _outcomes_ to strip those folks of civil service protections. Unfortunately the "public comment" part of fed regs is a sham process...

This is what Pusha said about Ye wow 😮

One of the main technical hurdles Golden Dome faced was... DOD's Office of Test & Evaluation, which independently evaluated weapon performance and a longtime scourge of missile defense. Problem now solved!!!

Literally faster to walk
