    Wow, what a “get” fellas! Shyam is The GOAT. I wish he’d replace Hegseth as SecDef nominee. He’s the perfect mix of Competence, Character & Charisma to lead DoD.

    At first I thought Mr. Sankar was saying MilSpec laptops are paperwieghts, and I was thinking "WTF MilSpec laptops rock!" but I rewound it realised that the entire DCGS-A system was the paperweight! Great show Mike cheers.

    20:00 Henry John Kaiser was an American industrialist who became known for his shipbuilding and construction projects, then later for his involvement in fostering modern American health care. Prior to World War II, Kaiser was involved in the construction industry; his company was one of those that built the Hoover Dam

    This greatly interested me. I was marginally involved when Palantir approached Big Pharma in around 2008-10 seeking to ‘solve’ the Research agenda, mining big data etc.
    Fascinating to hear about the gestation of the product…. We were aware of course that there was deep govt engagement…

    21:53 'The last supper': How a 1993 Pentagon dinner reshaped the defense industry
    the Defense Department was saying there are way too many companies in the defense industrial base. That we can't afford them. And that we couldn't have a bunch of companies with half full factories and not enough money to invest in research and development, huge overhead, high costs. And we need to consolidate the industry.
    And just to give you an example, the chart had a column on it that showed how many companies in various categories of military equipment, like fighter airplanes, tanks or what have you, how many companies the Defense Department was going to be able to afford to keep in business. And as an example, there were 16 categories of equipment and there were three. The government said it could keep three companies in business in one of the categories. In another of the categories it could afford to keep, let's see, it was six categories, it could afford to keep two companies in business. And there were seven categories where it considered it could only keep one company in business.

    Sounds like another great company to work for. I hope anyone watching this listens to some of the ideas on much needed reforms. I find Palantir and Andruil are just disrupting the market in a good way. We have to change how we do business or China will destroy us. I will never underestimate China despite the obvious.

    The west reindustrializes by leaning into extreme decentralization. using advanced manufacturing techniques, 3d printing, advanced robotics, instead of 300 new factories that produce 300 product lines, we need 3000 new factories that can produce 5000 product lines that are semi uniform in their design but flexible enough to produce multiple product lines as needed and flexible enough to shift their focuses as needed.

    We can’t put those kinds of sensors in a military acquisition simply because of the security issue that comes along with. I don’t want to even imagine the nightmare of doing IATTs and cyber certs on those sensors

    I keep saying it, but I keep saying it because I believe it to be true. Our future fights will be a competition of who can field bespoke solutions to battlefield problems the fastest. Who can create battlefield dilemmas the fastest and the speed will be on the scale and speed of creating FPV drones in a basement, exquisite systems will be few and far between.

      I kind of think "bespoke" is one of the problems with current procurement practices...

      @mkperez7465 6 месяцев назад

      @@vmpgsc bespoke and exquisite are not synonymous in this sense, bespoke refers to solving a limited problem set instead of trying to create panaceas and do all equipment. Short duration and sustainment means the problemset can be limited down and thus the cost and development cycle also limited down.

      @@mkperez7465 OK I see how you're using bespoke now. I've always used bespoke to mean customized or tailored, which presupposes new development vs adaptation or adoption of something existing.

      Look man, I wasn't going to reply to your negative comment, (I'm the one who gave you the thumbs down) but the YT algorithm fed me this related video from Ward Carroll "The All-Time Most Bizarre Squadron Callsigns". I can't paste the link so just search for that title and If you don't want to watch it all go to the 9:35 min mark and watch for 2 mins. Ward mentions when the USN had to start using Air Tasking Orders (ATO) from joint command, which they never had to do until the Gulf War and I quote - ""We didn't have the software or hardware to get the ATO sent to our carrier so we had to send S-3's to Manama Bahrain to get a hardcopy" - This is exactly the problems Palantir is solving that Mr. Sankar spoke about. It wasn't just all "buzzwords" and nonsense as you seemed to think. 😐
