Specifically, it was the National Weather Service Modernization and Associated Restructuring, begun in the 70s, which completely overhauled how we predict and respond to rapid weather events.

While the rest of the world, especially China, continues to invest in the modernization of their electrical grids with clean, renewable energy technologies, our dipshit dumbass and his moronic cult are taking us back a century to near complete dependence on coal and fossil fuels.

I find it interesting that a new IT contract was awarded for OPM on December 31st, 2024, setting up a 30 day transition during January that would render OPM more vulnerable to attacks. www.meritalk.com/articles/opm...

I am not against code modernization. I am just against...this.

The tech modernization experts are killing a large, successful, "excellent" tech modernization project. Efficiency.
Got my hands on an internal IRS report on how Direct File went this season. TLDR: pretty well. 94% of users said their experience was excellent or above average.

That said, the IRS is reportedly killing the free tax filing service.

The IRS is reportedly ending the Direct File, but a report obtained via the Freedom of Information Act says that 94% of users rated their experience as “excellent” or “above average.”

This is such a good example of modernization without erasing the character that made the original special.

🇩🇰🇺🇦 Denmark may transfer additional infantry fighting vehicles to Ukraine.

Copenhagen has abandoned the modernization of its existing CV9035DK IFVs and has decided to purchase new CV9035IIIC combat vehicles.

44 IVS that are not subject to modernization can theoretically be transferred to Ukraine.

Bari Weiss Keeps Calling This “Modernization”
That’s the word we always hear.
Modernization.

Transformation.

Reinvention.

Evolution.

Every corporate executive who destroys an institution uses the same language.

Also canceling funding for all state UI modernization activities.
Gutting Medicaid and food stamps at the same time as you do massive tariffs that hurt private sector job growth is like shooting yourself in one foot and sawing off the other
Health care and social assistance accounted for essentially all job growth in July, adding more than 73,000 jobs. If it hadn't been for that sector, employment would have fallen slightly.

their looney tunes cosmic bullshit defies modernization

This. Also:

1. Our nuclear modernization started under Obama.

2. The only significant nuclear expansion under Trump was the low-yield W76 mod 2 submarine launched ballistic missile.

3. Testing nukes is fucking stupid. We don’t need to do it.
None of this is correct. Good thing we have a steady hand on "nuclear"

love military modernization based on infantry vibes

Three-byline alert: 🚨

“.. The Pentagon has tried to mask the total price tag — including from Congress — by taking the funds from a classified budget for nuclear modernization.”

This isn’t efficiency or modernization. This is the dismantling of a 120-year-old agency done illegally, done deliberately, and done fast enough that most people won’t notice until it’s too late.

While many of you are likely yelling "GO CHIEFS" or "GO NINERS!" I'm yelling "GO MUSIC MODERNIZATION ACT and

DOGE claims it will take only a few months to replace legacy systems at the Social Security Administration. Having worked on similar modernization efforts before, we can tell you that isn’t true—here’s why.
