That’s my secret, I’m always tired.
Hankins also is weirdly eliding the fact that military history is taught at Harvard! I took courses on Central Europe because I knew I could write about the wars of the 1848 Revolutions and the Austro-Hungarian experience in WWI!
90% of military history is about where the latrines are dug. You cannot make war if you have dysentery.

It isn’t the worst part of the original article, but I hate this stat. The correct stat is that the top five firms in 1998 (LM, BA, NG, RTN, Litton) used to be fifty one firms - it’s just gotten garbled over the years to suggest that it went from 51 to 5. www.airandspaceforces.com/article/0798...

Oh, so now it’s a crime to bring your whole self to work
So apparently my company can't remove the guy cooking his beets and tuna in the air fryer. People have picked up and moved their desks because of it. One guy said he was at his desk seasoning chicken breasts.
People are livid.
