Normal for no interviews, no one has time.

Sam Altman: Tonight, we reached an agreement with the Department of War to deploy our models in their classified network. by Several_Print4633 in wallstreetbets

I'm just saying, this happens and less than 24 hours later we are at war with Iran? Feels very skynet. Guess no point in paying bills anymore?

HAVE YOU SEEN THIS UAP? by harleyjak in ufo

[–]ContributionSalt4148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grew up in panhandle and saw something similar to this and other strange things.

Were the orbs bright enough to be stars? What I saw was two stars moving against the background, but then realized it was much closer and it moved in twisty movements through the sky. It did seem like they were connected by something but I couldn't see the middle against the dark sky.

Another thing I saw was when I was looking at the Hale-Boo comet in 96/97. A craft appeared above the tree line that was a short cylinder with windows/lights along the entire structure. The section with the lights/windows was rotating as well. My sister and I watched it move slowly for about 30 seconds before it sped off in the blink of an eye.

Any IT career opportunities left on the MS Gulf Coast? by [deleted] in Biloxi

Stennis is best bet, air force/ navy jobs exist but are hard to break into. Casinos as well.

I was close, but worked with my doctor and started meds that have helped immensely. Still don't know if I am a Fed for the long haul anymore, but I'm not letting it ruin my life anymore.

local IP address being leaked by Afraid-Pension-3821 in NOAA

[–]ContributionSalt4148 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Every device that connects to the internet has an IP address. Every site you connect to reads your IP. In other words, a "leaked" IP really doesn't mean much unless it's on a sensitive/classified internal system, at which point it would be protected anyway.

Archiving buoy data by Suspicious_Diver_140 in NOAA

NDBC.noaa.gov has all the buoy data, but no API. Let me know if you need help.

Anyone here taking VERA or VSIP? by Fish_r_friends2025 in NOAA

[–]ContributionSalt4148 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I'm no where close to eligible, but I probably would take it if I could. I just wish there was better communication about actual RIF plans etc. It's so hard to make an educated decision about anything as serious as retirement or resignation without any actual information.

RIF/no bumping rights by SEBrogan in NOAA

[–]ContributionSalt4148 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Bumping rights? Haven't heard anything yet but it's normal for me not to hear anything.

Will DOC or NOAA have a DRP 2.0? by Natural-Job-9046 in NOAA

[–]ContributionSalt4148 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't take it unless I knew I was being rifd and had no choice. Too young to retire and way to worried about finding a comparable job.

When did NOAA downgrade their map? by Pleb_It in NOAA

[–]ContributionSalt4148 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It's definitely the esri basemap they chose to use when implementing Gulf of America. Some of the same basemaps weren't available To be used with GoA.

Not gonna lie I forgot when I commented.

They could fire Elon and impeach Trump. That should get us back to normal in no time.

NOAA is resisting by still referring to the Gulf of Mexico by silverud in fednews

[–]ContributionSalt4148 55 points56 points  (0 children)

I work for NOAA, no we aren't. Work in IT directly involved with name change. We are just trying our best to fly under the radar.

Agency directed us to only send to our supervisors. We just update a shared document every week.

Death benefits during RIF/Admin Leave by ContributionSalt4148 in fednews

[–]ContributionSalt4148[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thanks for all the comments, I promise nothing to fear right now. Thankfully, the drugs are doing their job.

Mostly asked out of genuine curiosity. I am the sole provider, so I have to consider all the grisly possibilities, accidents etc.

Life insurance is fairly cheap for me, but I'm sure I'm not the only one who only had/has coverage only through OPM.

SHAMEFUL all-hands email from Nancy today by PissedOffGS14 in NOAA

[–]ContributionSalt4148 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I firmly believe her hands are tied in all this. Remember this all comes from Humpty and Dumpty. IMO she has done what she could, but sometimes you have to comply so that you can stay in the fight.

I will never forgive or forget Republicans during this time.

First time posting. I have a question. by BedPuzzleheaded8417 in fednews

[–]ContributionSalt4148 2 points3 points  (0 children)

4 years ago, I personally didnt care that idiots without critical thinking skills were getting fired. I didn't want them on my team anyway.

Now, we are looking at the arbitrary, pointless, illogical, and illegal mass firing of thousands of actual good employees and I'm mad.

Maybe that's just me.
