    The way they explain how advancements are possible by throwing money at it and ramping up man-hours doesn‘t sit right with me. That’s not how it really works. There‘s a reason why the US suddenly caught up to the technology in the mid 1940s. The engineers and scientists who joined their jet engine force weren‘t just random university grads that suddenly spawned.

      I built jet engines every day. By far my biggest daily obstacle is the business and money people getting in my ducking way, trying to “increase my efficiency” by squeezing more work out of me with their jedi mind tricks. And when I don’t make 35% more output, they’ll try to turn younger union members against me. Telling them I’m the reason tgey have to work faster because I’m not doing my part. Fuck this shit system. Let me build my fucking engine in peace like I have been for 17 years you fucking fucks!!
