    Throughout the meeting, Shedd shared his vision for a GSA that operates like a “startup software company,” automating different internal tasks and centralizing data from across the federal government.

    said like a fucking idiot who has never had to deal with the actual national security IT infrastructure that these systems touch and the importance/utility of data siloing.

    combine this with hubris, greed and a dash of “AI” and we are all so fucked.

      They know most startups crash and burn, right?

      That’s their point, they are moonshots. Why in the fuck you’d want to operate a government agency like that is beyond me.
