90 miles from tyranny:
Nicholas Chaillan, the U.S. Air Force’s first-ever Chief Software Officer (CSO) publicly quit his job last week after criticizing the service’s reliance on unqualified officers which he said is setting up its IT infrastructure to fail. He also faulted the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) and the Joint Chiefs of Staff for not following through with funding on a major technology project, the Joint All-Domain Command, Control framework (JADC2).
Chaillan announced his decision to quit working with the Department of Defense and the Department of the Air Force in a LinkedIn post on September 2. MORE
h/t Brad.
“the service’s reliance on unqualified officers”
Isn’t Affirmative Action just grand?
@JDHasty… “Yowza!!”
The most sickening thing of all is the INTENT behind all this shit.
And we’re left here like idiots casually watching our own demise.
It’s important to understand our big military advantage with Russia and China is Software. We also just left them a ton of it over in Afghanistan. Clocking speed is another arena where we rule. We also left the Chinese a bunch of our chips in Afghanistan. This has got to be intentional and eventually I hope some of these people are offered blind folds.
They will probably get the Chinese to make any necessary changes
Brad, Joes gotta give them something for all that $$$ the “big guy” got.
It’s just a matter of time before the World’s only “superpower” becomes a “superjoke.”
The USAF general staff officer in charge of IT services, Maj. Gen. LaQueesshah X Boomshakalaka states unequivocally that the USAF is dedicated to full IT services inclusion of all BiPOC and LGBTQ people, and that things will work out fine as soon as “…we getz rid o’ dem goofy white mathahfackahs talkin’ ’bout dey’z stupid azz ‘firewalls’ & shit.”
There is no reliable firewall but an AIR firewall.
Period.
If it connects, it can be hacked.
That applies to Mil Spec systems and voting machines.
Idiot IT guys can make it easier,
But if the world can see it, the world will get it, sooner or later…
TheMule,
You slightly misquoted.
You wrote: ” “…we getz rid o’ dem goofy white mathahfackahs talkin’ ’bout dey’z stupid azz ‘firewalls’ & shit.”
When what she said was: ” “…we getz rid o’ dem goofy white mathahfackahs talkin’ ’bout dey’z stupid azz ‘firewalls’ & shit … yo!”
And added: “See whut ahm sayn, niggah?”
May be nit-picking …
izlamo delenda est …
jellybean,
What do you suggest?
Great. My ex-employer liked to put managers with zero tech experience in charge of highly technical programs and employees. They put some bean counter in charge of Product Service and he had absolutely idea what it took to run a repair shop. You couldn’t tell him that though.
I start grinding my teeth just thinking about it. Sure glad I retired.
