"Anything manned will die very fast."

Musk is exactly right. Manned fighter planes are now obsolete. Drone and missile technology has reached the point when any piloted aircraft can be easily taken out. The same is true of tanks. They are obsolete, right now. A Javelin fire-and-forget missile can be carried and fired by a single soldier. Ukraine reports a 94% kill rate with the first Javelin missile.

Schedule

Is it a good thing or a bad thing for this squad to play this tough of a schedule?

Personally, I think it’s a good thing and taking our lumps early is good for team chemistry and for the new guys to learn from the older guys.

We won’t be seeing a top seed in the tourney but this team will be experienced once March rolls around. Get the right draw and who knows how far these guys can go.
