The Titan was an accident waiting to happen.

Good article from the New Yorker.  Jaw dropping at the very least.

Thanks for sharing. It becomes clear the hull didn’t fail. Instead a flawed process driven by flawed people led to a predictable result.

Unfortunately it reminded me of our politics, our banking system, our public schools, our Afghan withdrawal, our Southern border, our criminal justice system, our mountain of public debt…

Here's a toast with one last pour, may it last forever and a minute more;
Good fortune seems to you have sung, to live and love way past long

Of all the places to choose to be a charlatan, the bottom of the ocean seems like the worst choice possible.
