"One, a senior adviser to the director, is a 21-year-old whose online resume touts his work for Palantir," per Wired, while another "who reports directly to Scales, graduated from high school in 2024." A copy of the latter's resume include his summer internship with Musk's Neuralink, alongside jobs as — we assure you that we are not joking — a camp counselor and bike mechanic.

Although both these tykes are ostensibly poised to rip and tear through America's federal agencies, Wired declined to name them "because of their ages" — a somewhat baffling choice given that both appear to be of legal age. (And if they're not, well, that's a much bigger problem.)

At least the 5th article shitting on wired for not naming them...

But no one else has the names besides Wired?

Like, I agree they should disclose the names, but I don't understand why no one else can find out who these "kids" are.

Holy shit, I had to check whether this was the onion or not on this one.

I susppect that billionaires prefer young people in certain roles because many young people lack the experience to recognize evil instructions.

I know I've wanted younger people in government, but I was hoping for people in their 30's or 40's. These kids can't even rent a car legally. I've got a feeling that they're just puppets.

The Republican party was the best thing to ever happen to America's enemies.

They are feeding all communications from devices into AI right now, both a massive security breach and they are calculating and creating an enemies list. Watch.

Did he at least get an A in civics a few months ago? /s

Programmers have the worst Dunning Kruger.

I guess the Jordan Peele reboot of the twilight zone episode: The Wunderkind wasn't too far off

Whatever it was, it's zero now.

I'll be in my bunker if you need me.

Bye now
