Actually DOGE involvement at the highest level would have resulted in Tesla solar and Tesla powerwall battery backups.

Apparently no engineers here anymore, all armchair politicians.

  • When the politicians take a hatchet to the underpinnings of society that we built, we have to get political.

    • So sad, we used to innovate and stay one step ahead of them. That’s how wealth is created.

Lol, lmao.

Some relevant DOGE’s effects:

-time and frequency division director quit

-NIST emergency management staff at least 50% vacant

-NIST director of safety retired, and NIST safety was already understaffed when compared to DOE labs

-NOAA emergency manager on the same Boulder campus laid off

etc
