They’re issuing an RFP for something that’s literally 1960s technology.

A portable reactor powered the Army’s “Camp Century” inside a glacier in Greenland, circa 1960.

Wow. What a job. I needz to getz me one of dem jobs…

Not long ago a young soldier partly tongue in cheek asked how he could get a good paying job without degree or experience.

I replied with a list of free educational sites for coding, testing, and a list of certification programs, this being mostly tech certs. Clearly I have sinned and should have steered him towards government.

I think it was Isegoria the other day mentioning we have been talking about rotating orbital stations for partial gravity for a long, long time. Maybe someone should put in a request for proposal?
