https://www.cnbc.com/2019/10/29/lockheed-martin-costly-f-35-program-gets-biggest-pentagon-contract-yet.html

quote:

The Pentagon on Tuesday announced a $34 billion F-35 contract with Lockheed Martin, the largest contract yet for the defense company’s costly fighter program.

The deal is for the delivery of 478 of the aircraft.

The F-35, the crown jewel in the defense giant’s portfolio, has become one of the most challenged programs in the history of the Department of Defense. The laundry list of setbacks includes faulty ejection seats, software delays and significant helmet-display issues. The program had an initial acquisition cost of $406.5 billion.

Yet the Pentagon touted reduced costs and a quicker timetable in its announcement Tuesday.

“This agreement achieves an average 12.7% cost reduction across all three variants and gets us below $80 million for a USAF F-35A by Lot 13 – one lot earlier than planned,” Air Force Lt. Gen. Eric Fick, F-35 program executive officer, said Tuesday.

Lockheed Martin’s fifth-generation F-35 comes in three variants, the F-35A for the U.S. Air Force, F-35B for the U.S. Marine Corps and F-35C for the U.S. Navy.

“The $34 billion agreement for F-35 low-rate initial production lots 12-14 includes the delivery of 478 F-35 aircraft,” Ellen Lord, undersecretary of Defense for acquisition and sustainment, said Tuesday at the Pentagon

I'm pretty sure that the way to get people to swallow it is to "save money in sg&a costs (by firing managers)". Dunno if that will fly very well but it will have solid humor value. Working on the last mathematical prelude, which is proving that the second order optimization is going to deal with non stationary looking stuff, for a given value of non stationary looking. For what it's worth, actual optimization bits will be simple and I've finished the crud data manipulation bits in the system. Real difficulty is in fraud detection, which I haven't begun work on

My country decided to raise the end of employment notice period some years ago to 3 months which on paper is great for employees (3 months to find a new job if you're fired) But actually means that I've taken a new job offer and am sitting at my current job for 3 months unable to start anything new and my current job wants to get "their money's worth" and will insist on making me serve to the absolute final day possible and also are asking me not to tell too many people that I've resigned until I am closer to the date

Depending on your job and company sometimes they'll just tell you to stop coming in, especially if you're gonna sit around and drag down the mood of everyone who hasn't quit or try to take people with you on the way out. I was told in the UK they call this "Gardening Leave" and it sounds great

"Come in and do not start your new job which pays better out of spite" is less great
