Keep building, stay focused on the foundations, and do not forget the why. The mental scar tissue and lessons you accumulate will pay off sooner than you think.

Doing some skill honing and building something that might help out people interested in the ATO/CtF process in defense tech: compliancesnapshot.up.railwa…

You might not be wrong, but being right rarely pays. Remember that shit.

Roses are red, violets are blue, if I show up to your three hour TEM, I love you too.

One resource I do not see spoken about enough in time series and machine learning is the NASA Technical Reports Server. A hallmark of reports on the NASA Technical Reports Server is the straightforward language, strong methodologies, and clear research outcomes. It is a great resource, with a search string in the comments and a sample technical report attached, which I found enjoyable. Time Series Analysis Search String: ntrs.nasa.gov/search?q=time%…

What are people choosing as the best in class lithium batteries for their projects? MaxAmps, Grepow, or something else?

A gem for learning low level electronics the right way. Pain is sold in ample quantities separately.

I did not electrocute myself this week while wiring up an airframe, and utilized Times New Roman, 12 Point Font on an After Action Report (AAR). Not a bad week working on robotics.

Has anyone had a good experience with Agile Project Management Methodologies or Scrum leading to improved product outcomes, happier employees, and a reduction in concept to delivery timelines?

Controversial take: Palantir eats DoD data science practices within 5 years with Envision and the Maven Smart System, as the ubiquitous technology of choice for those workflows.

If technology works repeatedly under austere conditions and makes life easier for the warfighter or those who support them, quit gatekeeping progress and get it in their hands now.

Are you taking prime Sandy Koufax or Pedro Martinez to build your starting pitching rotation around?

Great job to the @grok team on the Think feature. I was attempting to double-check some Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) VHDL implementations, and it was pretty accurate, easy to understand, and laid out logically.

The thought that enters my mind when someone talks about Scrum, Agile, or Jira.

After taking the car around the driveway on Saturday mornings, Rainman style, I hitch my boot trailer up and drive around looking for homeless people. I then give each of them some US Army tanker boots and tell them: You can now literally pick yourself up by your bootstraps. I take a bow, and then post about it on LinkedIn.

The last image you see before 45% of your emerging Defense Tech company goes to VC.

Also, modern software projects.
