Me teaching @usdot @SecElaineChao
How to fly a #drone at #UAS1stCon #FirstResponders conference last weekend. She picked it up very quickly and did a great job. She tops the list of my thousands of students I've taught over the years!

History and human nature tells us that there will always be a future war. Those that willfully remain ignorant to this FACT risk dooming themselves and those around them if they aren't ready for when it lands on their doorstep.

I'm pretty sure that NYC's greatest strength isn't it diversity, but the businesses that create jobs there. If all the businesses left town tomorrow, the city would die. Your diversity would do jack squat.
I used to watch all of Ronda's fights until she retired and then I stopped watching UFC. Now Rhonda and Gina who I also love is coming up. Should be an interesting fight. Let's go!!!

It depends on the type of thinking. Too much self reflection can lead to overly negative thought processes. Too much thinking on a business matter can lead to decision paralysis. Too much thinking in product development can lead to unnecessary feature creep, ect. In everything there is a fine line between just the right amount of thinking to lead to positive outcomes and too much thinking that can go into the negatives.
Lol, too funny. How many women must be doing this? But seriously guys, don't be simping on women, especially over the interwebs. Be about your bigger purpose and don't waste your time and money on anyone unless you are in a serious relationship with them.

I believe China still faces a steep uphill on this. Recent engagements involving Chinese equipment against ours has shown it severely lacking in promised capability, not to mention that modern China hasn't flight a real war (untested equipment, tactics, & people) not to mention that if China were to have any hope of taking Taiwan, they'd have to engage with kinetics and in person at the same time they kick off the other things you mentioned because if they don't, the pacific allies and the U.S. Will be there in short to physically back up Taiwan. They'd have to capture Taiwan in a surprise attack in under 36 hours for it to work in their favor. You bring up the F-35 as if it'd be useless in this engagement, but it would see lots of action, as would the F-22. We also don't fight anything like we did back in WW2, so you shouldn't have brought it up for comparison.
This is what suicidal empathy looks like. She played the race game, and someone else died because of it. Same goes to all the DA's and judges who let criminals off easy.
Woman endures terrifying NY subway attack, luckily escapes but doesnt cooperate with prosecutors because 'Maybe a part of me was just like, I don’t want to put another black man in jail'. Her attacker kills an innocent stranger weeks later nypost.com/2026/05/08/us-new…

I’m pressing red so I am guaranteed to survive and can therefore dedicate the rest of my life to hunting down the parties responsible for forcing this monstrous “experiment” on humanity, and then eliminating them. This is the moral and ethical response.
Seat 7 is the most obvious choice. It's an aisle seat with the middle left free. I can lean my seat back the whole time to annoy Kamala. I can easily have an interesting conversation with Candace. I can flirt & joke with Taylor next to me and once I've done that, have enough confidence to do it with Sydney in front of me as well. All of which would have gotten Sabrina so jealous over the 10-hour flight that she'd hit me up at baggage claim...

They still have to fumigate, and the numbers are just semantics at this point.
The CCP will start having everybody turn in Grandma & Grandpa to be euthanized en-mass in order to try to triage the bleeding of their social welfare programs and drain on their economy. How long before the citizenry revolts?
If I were @POTUS, I'd force a complete exodus of ALL American business & commercial dealings outside of raw materials purchasing from China over the next four years. China doesn't have anything to offer that we really need from them. Also end any student or work visas as well.

Facilitating landing a lot of vehicles, equipment, and personnel onto a beach, especially by large ships that can't get close to a shallow beach for delivery. Great for military beach invasions. *Ahem Taiwan

pilots have to deal with a tremendous amount of information, some useful, some not, some from adversaries (jamming/ghosting/phantoms, etc) and some politically malevolent...
Be careful what you wish for, cos AI will target based on its moral/ethical instructions
