No worries. I might be being over cautious, but we are in a situation that's never happened before so it's hard to tell.

Absolutely. Honestly I think they are so used to taking over companies where they can just do whatever they want they have zero idea how much is involved with federal employees.

Unfortunately, much as I would like to put it out there, posting that email online isn't something I'm comfortable doing with everything going on and how up in the air things are currently. I can say that if you search online you might be able to find it, and if not a full version of it you can kinda get a good idea of what it is. It basically says if you reply resign to the email you will be put on a deferred resignation and be able to still gain pay for like 8 months or something of that nature. Needless to say, not many people are doing that because it's very sketchy seeming. I wouldn't trust musk lackeys not to get that response and immediately let you go with no money. It also leaves things like retirement and other benefits up in the air. And at the end it gives a thinly veiled threat about changing employee positions to be at will and people having positions and jobs eliminated. It makes very little sense and is very legally sketchy. It also is trying to go around the very large bargaining units present in the FAA.

Edit: Sergio has posted a response that shows exactly the email and a response from one of the unions that you can take a look at.

Ahhh ok that actually makes sense.

They sent out an email trying to trick federal employees into resigning over email. And they sent it out to people who are in charge of all of the technical things going on. Needless to say the vast majority just ignored it.

That's my guess. But I'll say that as an engineer I can't imagine that as a title someone would actually use when they addressed me.

The vile stuff he was spewing regarding DEI and the FAA during that briefing was honestly infuriating.

Making me wonder if I should start worrying for my job. I will say, if they start screwing around with the FAA it will make it a lot more dangerous for those who are flying and I can all but promise that.

As someone who works in a government agency linked to flying and airports, the cheeto and the muskrat are causing disruption and unease in areas they shouldn't be allowed anywhere near. With funding issues and retirements personnel are already in short supply in areas that are vitally important and distracting the people who still here and trying to get a handle on things is a very, very bad idea.

Why is India weekly posting to this community

 

So first off I know uploading a blueprint/image is probably needed for full assistance which I can do but not until later. But I am trying to create a blueprint of a city block I created that includes my rails and intersection (2 rails with a fourway at each corner) but I don't seem to understand how to set up the snap to grid because i can't seem to get the rails to line up for the grid. I'm not sure if I am messing up with the dimensions of the grid or with the offsets. Are there any tricks to getting this too work or anything like that?

 

So I have intermittently played factorio. Scraped through a vanilla playthrough a while back and just did a more serious playthrough recently. I would like to move into using more mods, getting better at using trains and such. Are there any recommended mods for where I'm at to be able to keep moving forward without jumping to far into the deep end of complexity too fast and losing interest?
