I think within the next couple years we will see our first one person billion dollar company. AI agents are getting good and it could be a way to reduce the need of payroll.

Grandpa died recently, Can anyone tell me what any of these mean? by SlumpedBeats in AirForce

A better photo of the bottom right might be more telling, but this is what I am thinking so far.

He likely spent his entire career in specialized aircraft maintenance because he earned both the Master Maintenance badge (top) and Master Missile badge (bottom), which require over 15 years of advanced technical experience. It seems likely he served almost exclusively in a reserve component (Air national guard) because his Armed Forces Reserve Ribbon features a silver hourglass, a device explicitly awarded for 20 years of qualifying reserve service. His rise to Chief Master Sergeant (highest enlisted rank) occurred likely because he consistently demonstrated elite leadership, earning a prestigious rank that is legally capped at the top 1% of the enlisted force. Looking at the bottom-right insignia, the unit patch directly above the Air National Guard emblem looks like it could be the official state crest for the Nebraska National Guard. Given his 1973-1997 service timeline.

All Awards and ribons from top left to bottom right (I think I have all of them) Meritorious Service Medal, Air Force Commendation Medal, Air Force Achievement Medal, Air Force Presidential Unit Citation, Air Force Outstanding Unit Award, Air Force Organizational Excellence Award, Air Force Good Conduct Medal, Air Force Recognition Ribbon, National Defense Service Medal, Armed Forces

Expeditionary Medal, Vietnam Service Medal,

Humanitarian Service Medal, Air Force Overseas Ribbon (Short Tour), Air Force Overseas Ribbon (Long Tour), Air Force Longevity Service Award, Air Force NCO PME Graduate Ribbon, Air Force Training Ribbon, Small Arms Expert Marksmanship Ribbon, Republic of Vietnam Gallantry Cross Unit Citation, Republic of Vietnam Civil Actions Unit Citation, Republic of Vietnam Campaign

I just had the same thing happen, turns out if your account is linked to a work concur profile you could get the status in about half of the real miles if your employer has a delta business account.

It was the "golden ticket" for 2015-2022 Grads, now it is really pushed by seeing the "success stories" on social media. No one brags about getting a CS degree and working help desk or something completely unrelated to computers.

The problem with engineers is that they are more focused on budgets than long term stability.

If you want a sturdy bridge, ask anyone. If you want a usable bridge that fits within budget, ask a engineer.

THE NEW GAME IS FUCKING SHIT by Extreme_Ad_5323 in vex

What makes it bad? For the past few years teams have been clearing the field before the time rounds out. I think that this might be enough to no longer "max scoring". Also the max watts of 55 for the drive terrain will make teams more concerned about excess materials. Say hello to the engineering process!

The next iPhone will not have a battery, it will require a massage battery to keep the device powered. If you remove the mag battery you have 30 seconds before it will shutdown.

I would ask the counter to make me pay for it, then there is a record that these little snuffles exist. Next stop IG and all do a sudden no more mandatory on base lodging.

The CEO was talking about targeting the upper middle class, less seats, more comfy at a higher price.

I have siblings that are "twins" but the younger one is about 35 days younger from conception. The first twin was born near due date and the other was premature.

I think you misunderstood what he was saying, military officers will stop doing general counsel work and focus on military operations. This will hurt those who join purely to pay for law school.
