Hey, watch it, I worked for the government and--no, you're right. There are some good people, but they are swamped out by the lowest of the low who inevitably become lifers while the good people leave.
I made it about 3 years, and that was 3 years too long.
Well it's that phenomenon (the name of which I can't remember now) where people only hire less competent and less intelligent minions to work for them, which creates an infinite feedback loop of everything degenerating into retardation as the smartest passes on and the slightly dumber continue the cycle.
This isn't entirely true. I know for a fact that people working in weapons research for DARPA are in fact competent but there's actually a fair bit of nepotism in it and therefore they don't necessarily hire the best but the competency is still high.
I don't know if I'd call any of the contents that impressive or informative, but it is somewhat surprising that these "scoops" keep happening.
