Musk: The DOGE team will aim to make rapid safety upgrades to the ATC system

I definitely want the guy that launched the last Starshio rocket flight that exploded all over the Bahamas and also made autopiloting cars to crash all the time to quickly build a system to control ALL aircraft in the country.<p>He better get on it!

Leaving the politics aside,<p>any HN worthy technical comments on the sanity of moving fast and breaking things when dealing with a control system that overseees one million people aloft (ok, that&#x27;s globally last I checked) every minute of the day?

One of the least forgiving agencies in which to roll out anything rapidly

for every change they make, Elon should take a consumer flight<p>There&#x27;s no way inexperienced 20 year old programmers should be anywhere near this.<p>&gt; Just a few days ago, the FAA’s primary aircraft safety notification system failed for several hours!<p>And nothing catastrophic happened...

How long until this is flagged?<p>It should be a game by now.<p>Edit: Flagged and dead in 1 hour!

This was in case anyone was still talking about something else besides Elon. There was still some conversation about the crash in the MSM, if it&#x27;s topical he must put himself in the middle of it

Some things should not get rapid upgrades. Even at Amazon, which is not some slow-moving dinosaur, there was an understanding that some systems (like auth) were so critical that the risk of breaking something necessitated moving slowly and deliberately.
