Die as a result of giving attention to and upgrading air traffic control systems? Didn't a bunch of people die recently as a result of not intervening in this manner?

The Verge is... often a nauseating experience because between every line they're hammering a side-hustle point with blunt force.

Duffy: "I’m asking for help from any high-tech American developer or company that is willing to give back to our country..."

Duffy: "...learn what air traffic controllers like and dislike about their current tools, and envision how we can make a new, better, modern and safer system....Zero air traffic controllers and critical safety personnel were let go"

Sounds like they're asking air traffic controllers what they need. I doubt Musk will storm in with kitchen sink, light a cigar and put his boots up on the console.
