🚀 Wow, #groundbreaking revelation: someone prefers #Claude over Figma! 🤯 Could it be that designing with Claude is like eating cereal with a fork—an #amusingly #inefficient choice? 🥣🔧 Or is it just that #Figma is too mainstream, and only true hipsters #design with Claude now? 😎

Not that you’d know it by looking at the logs generated by the migration tool. Safest thing’s probably to start again. #Inefficient

Accijnsverlaging helpt snel bij hoge brandstofprijzen, maar is 'zeer inefficiënt'

Het verlagen van de accijnzen op benzine en diesel is de snelste manier om verlichting te brengen voor huishoudens die kampen met hoge brandstofprijzen. Maar het is ook een enorm inefficiënte maatregel: een accijnsverlaging kost bakken met geld en het leeuwendeel ervan komt terecht bij mensen die het niet nodig hebben.

Garrett Reisman September 2025 "In the current environment of fear and uncertainty at #NASA, it will be more challenging than ever to elicit dissenting views, making it more difficult than ever to prevent the next human 🧑‍🚀 #spaceflight tragedy.

Prof Logsdon* expects big changes under #Trump, Mr #Musk and Mr #Isaacman: scrapping programmes, closing NASA centres and more contracting out to #SpaceX, #BlueOrigin and other private sector firms. "There is a delicate balance between the interests of #NASA, #Congress and the #WhiteHouse."

Mr Isaacman has called the #SLS "outrageously expensive" and said that the major aerospace contractors are "incentivised to be economically #inefficient". https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cn93797z2dpo

Nasa needs saving from itself – but is this billionaire right for that job?

The success of SpaceX and other private-sector space firms is throwing up hard questions about America's "great national treasure".
