DOGE employee cuts fall heavily on agency that regulates Musk’s Tesla
"I'm surprised the US Government doesn't use SAP or something for timesheets and project management." What they have, likely costed ten-times as much, and is 1% as effective, It looks like that might change. -

My Harley Disaster...
The only thing missing from the story was a "GoFundMe" link (and a photo credited to the Daily Mail or Mirror). I used to teach Defensive Driving and one of the key points was, from the moment you start your vehicle until you are at your destination, you HAVE to be aware of your surroundings. If you KNOW you are going somewhere, you HAVE to think about the route you're going to take. The time of day. The weather. Is it a holiday. Are YOU physically/mentally capable. Is your vehicle reliable. As you KNOW what soi 6 is like, you KNOW there will be hazards and not just for you. Did YOU ever even stop to think that maybe the vehicle driver ahead of you was FORCED to make a sudden stop because some slobber-mouthed geezer was staggering on the road in front of him ? If YOU had of been paying attention, you would have KNOWN and been LOOKING for potential hazards like that. And if you were REALLY going just "10km/hr" and couldn't stop on a dime - on a 2.8 mil Harley - and the front wheel locked up and the "handlebars wobbled" then I suspect the problem was YOU and not the guy in front of you. I have an older bike (2003) and it doesn't have ABS but at 10km/hr I have no problem stopping almost instantly. But I pay attention to my surroundings and don't follow people 1 meter from their bumper in a congested soi full of gawkers and trawlers while scanning for the next "Mrs right now". And if you were riding a Harley down Soi 6 then that is exactly what you were doing. Scoping out the talent to see if any of them would fit on the back of your bike instead of watching the traffic in front of you. Take responsibility for YOUR own actions and next time, park the bike and WALK. (And don't forget the "GoFundMe" link next time to add "authenticity" to the story.)
