Elon Musk has revealed the formula of his team’s success. The problem is that they barely have time to sleep and eat

Facing The experiments and tests around the world that seek to establish a four -day workdaythe richest man on the planet proposes a hardly justifiable leap against. Elon Musk recently revealed which is the “formula of success” of the efficiency office it manages in the United States government. The keys: work So many hours that sleep deprivation threatens the health of the workers themselves. The culture of the extreme. He did it a few weeks ago through Your X account. Elon Musk revealed then that he and his department of government efficiety (Doge) work work nothing less than 120 hours per weeka figure that triples the standard day 40 hours. Musk argued that this titanic effort is what allows them to overcome their “bureaucratic opponents,” who operate with conventional schedules. What does science say to all this? Divide the day. Making the accounts more or less standard, and since a week has 168 hours, working 120 hours is to leave alone 48 hours for any other activityincluding in the eating equation, bathing, moving to work/return home and, of course, sleeping. In the best case, if an employee allocated those 48 hours only to sleep, he would get a maximum of 6.8 hours per night, well below The 8 recommended hours by health experts. However, it is still a utopia considering the time of displacement and any other of the basic needs, so it is likely that real rest is much lower. Science. In Fortune They collected several studies that warn about the serious consequences of working in excess. Mayo Clinic points out that sleep less than 7 hours At night it can contribute to obesity, diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, stroke and depression. WHO data already indicated in 2016 that 745,000 people died by cardiovascular diseases associated with working days of 55 hours or more. Microsueños. Since the 1950s, scientists Like William Dement They have documented The effects of sleep In the brain, identifying the IMPORTANCE OF REM DREAM and discovering the phenomenon of The so -called “microsueños”episodes of momentary unconsciousness that can cause fatal errors at work. More recently, studies have shown that lack of sleep reduces activity in The prefrontal cortex (responsible for decision making) and in The hippocampus (key in memory). The impact is not just neurological. The study of the World Health Organization indicated that working more than 55 hours per week increases by 35% the risk of stroke and in 17% the risk of heart disease. In terms of productivity, an investigation from Stanford University concluded that it falls dramatically After 50 hours a weekand that working 70 hours per week generates almost The same production as 56 hourswhich suggests decreasing yields beyond a certain point. Musk’s obsession. The truth is that it was already known that Musk was a recognized WORLKAHOLIC. In A 2022 interview With investor Ron Baron, he confessed to having lived three years within his factories in Tesla and Spacex, sleeping in sofastents on the roofs and even under his desk, surrounded by metallic dust and the most uncomfortable conditions. No doubt, his labor philosophy of “more hours is equal to more efficiency” has been widely criticizedsince scientific evidence suggests that imposing extreme days does not guarantee better results and, instead, It affects health and the well -being of workers. Govern without sleep. They counted in a VOX medium report that the extreme work rhythm in Doge has already generated serious mistakes In public administration. From multimillionaire mathematical failures to the accidental dissemination of classified information, fatigue seems to be affecting the capacity of the Musk team to make key decisions. The recent dismissal and Hurrying reaction of essential personnel in areas such as nuclear safety and Avian flu response It is a sign that the policy of exhaustion could be having real and dangerous consequences. Plus: Trump administration is implementing Mass dismissals in the IRS In full tax season, which could generate an administrative collapse. In short, these types of measures, promoted by an apparently exhausted team, arouse concerns about the efficacy and stability of the government Under this new hyperproductivity model. The failures of “hacking” the dream. Paradoxically, Musk and other technological leaders have recognized that The dream cannot be replaced. Companies like Eight Sleepthat sold rest capsules From no less than 4,600 dollars to Musk and his team, they reinforce the idea that, although the culture of extreme work remains promoted, they are also looking for more efficient ways to achieve that eight -hour standard. Even figures such as Mark Zuckerberg and Jeff Bezos have defended the Importance of rest In productivity. On the other sidewalk, while Musk insists on that exhausting routine, he himself has admitted that his ancient habits caused “brain pain”, in fact, his Erratic behavior in networks Social raises doubts about whether you are really improving your rest. Sleep more, no less. Despite the alleged glamor that some try to grant sleep deprivation, scientific evidence is overwhelming: The rest is indispensable For the optimal functioning of brain and body. Instead of glorifying days of 120 hours per week, the real challenge should be to find ways to maximize productivity without compromising health. One thing seems clearly clear: at the end of the day, not even the brightest and most innovative minds can escape human biology. Musk either.

The first time a ship recorded an eclipse from the moon was in 1967. The second has been today

The blood moon is a land of blood from the lunar surface. The early morning of March 14, the Lunar Blue Ghost landizer of Firefly Aerospace He registered a solar eclipse from his unique perspective on the moon. It is the first commercial ship that achieves it. And the second in general, from the NASA Surveyor 3 probe in April 1967. Eclipse lunar, solar eclipse. In a lunar eclipse, the earth stands between the sun and the moon, projecting its shadow on the satellite, which acquires a reddish tone due to the longest wavelengths that are filtered through the atmosphere. Hence it is known as “blood moon.” From the point of view of the moon (the visible face of the moon, to be exact) is a solar eclipse. NASA’s Surveyor Lunar 3 probe was the first in register how the earth is blocking the sun to form a diamond ring, similar to the one we see from here during the total solar eclipses. The first private mission to record it. In addition to Surveyor, Apollo Missions Astronaut The Kaguya Japanese probe in 2009 They have been able to register them from the lunar orbit. But Blue Ghost has been the second ship to document a total solar eclipse from the satellite surface. Similarly, Firefly Aerospace has become the first private company to get this milestone. Not surprisingly, it is the first to have achieved a gentle in vertical, something they have tried Several companies in recent years with little success. Everything got red. The eclipse It started at 5:30 UTC on Friday. At 8:30 UTC, the ground around the ship and the surfaces of the ship itself They had acquired an intense reddish tone. At 9:30 UTC, the Blue Ghost lunar module photographed Your first diamond ring: The silhouette of the earth framed by the brightness of the sun, with a flash crowning it as a piece of goldsmiths. Firefly has been clearly victorious in one week in which another Texas company, Intuitive Machines, has tried to alunize its Nova-C ship. The landing “Athena” fell sideways and could not recharge his batteries, dying within a few hours. Blue Ghost, on the other hand, landed at first and deployed a heat probeamong other NASA experiments.

China became famous for its eternal working days. The solution has been to throw employees at their time

The Reduction of the working day It seems to be a path of no return that many countries have proposed to move. Some, Like GreeceThey do not do it with a determined step. Instead, others whose self -denial It seemed immovable, they are surprising the world with day reduction measures. China is one of those countries that, unexpectedly, has proposed to cut its workday. Labor culture 996. While in a large part of the West the eight -hour workday begins to be seen as a vestige of the last century and fights for the reduction of working hours, in China the culture 996 still continues: work from nine in the morning to nine o’clock at night and six days per week. Such and as they tell In ethic, that pace of work is taking Chinese society to the extreme, pulling on the soils The birth rate in a country that for years has sinned just the opposite. Chinese authorities have been trying for years Eliminate the culture of 996 of the workplace, but Without too much success. Dji has seriously proposed. According to The published by SCMP, Since the end of February something very curious is happening in DJI, the Chinese drone manufacturer. When the clock marks nine o’clock at night, a squad of human resources managers travels through the brand’s central offices in Shenzhen. Their mission is to make sure that all employees without exception leave their jobs and go home as if it were a fire drill. Instead of evacuating the building for security, employees are “guests” to leave their cubicles to meet a new rule: no one can work beyond their day. The fault is “Neijuan”. No, Neijuan It is not the name of the company’s Human Resources Manager. The term could translate to something as “involution” and, as they explain in SCMP, It refers to the need to reduce excess competition in certain areas of the economy. The measure is imposed as a New economic policy of China in which it is intended to reduce the excess of competence that makes companies in certain sectors such as The technological either Renewable energiesinvest an unnecessary amount of resources without obtaining an improvement in their profitability or in their R&D in return. Therefore, it implies outbound templates without registering a significant advance generating inefficient competition. It is something unpublished in China. Until recently, it was common to see the offices of DJI illuminated until the early hours of the morning with employees who lengthened their days until infinity. Now, the image is very different and has impacted many who have commented on social networks. The Asian media highlighted the publication of a worker surprised by the measure that commented “it was the first time they threw me from the office.” Other technological giants are adding. Although the work culture 996 has the support of prominent names of the Chinese technology industry Like Jack Mamore and more international companies such as Haier or Measure They are adding to the call of the Chinese government of limit the days of its employees. According to sources of SCMPHaier would have ordered all the staff of his headquarters to respect the breaks of two days of the weekend, while Midea has begun to demand that the workers file their departure at 6:20 p.m., instead of 9 pm.

Lip-Bu will assume command at a decisive time for the semiconductor company

Lip-bu Tan It will be the new CEO of Intel. The experienced executive, one of the main candidates after the abrupt departure from Pat Gelsingerwill assume the position on March 18. With his appointment, he will relieve David Zinsner and Michelle (MJ) Johnston Holthaus, who have led the company interim since December. “Lip-Bu is an exceptional leader whose experience in the technology industry, deep relationships in product and casting ecosystems, and a proven history of value creation for shareholders is exactly what Intel needs in his next CEO,” said Frank D. Yeary, who temporarily led the board of directors while looking for a new CEO. A fervent Gelsinger critic will be new CEO of Intel But the story of so with Intel does not start here. In the past, he was a fierce critic of the management of Gelsinger and the management that the company was taking. The former Cadence Design Systems courses joined the Intel Board of Directors In September 2022 with the objective of promoting the restructuring plan of the semiconductor firm. However, the differences with Gelsinger and other members of the Board soon arise. According to ReutersSo considered that Intel had an oversized template and that the company was losing agility in an increasingly dynamic market. For him, the real problem was not only the size of the company, but its risk aversion, a factor that was leaving it behind the competition. The tensions reached its highest point in October 2023, just when Intel announced the dismissal of more than 10,000 employees In an attempt to reduce costs and improve your efficiency. So, in disagreement with the management of the crisis and the strategic decisions of Gelsinger, he resigned from his position on the Board of Directors. Now he returns to hold the highest position of the company. His appointment not only marks a leadership change, but also presumable turn in Intel’s strategy. So arrives with the mission of redefining the future of the company, making it more competitive and recovering the trust of investors. Intel stands out in its statement How he has a degree in Physics from the Technological University of Nanyang (Singapore), has a Master in Nuclear Engineering from the Massachusetts Technological Institute and an MBA from the University of San Francisco. In 2022, he received the Robert N. Noyce Award, the maximum recognition of the Semiconductor Industry Association.

A recruiter has given the key to what is the perfect time to find a new job: in March

In the same way that it is convenient to wait for the right time to request a salarythe job search also has its “sweet point” at a certain moment of the year in which the options of Find a new job They increase. As Beatriz Gómez, a specialist in Human Resources, in a hung video In your Tiktok profileMarch is the more conducive month to find a job due to the specific situation in the internal processes of companies. Choose the perfect moment According to HR expert, the month of March is the key moment for those who wish to find a new job. This is because, after Christmas holidays, companies spend the months of January and February in internal organization processes and Fiscal year closure. During those first months of the year, companies approve the annual budgets they have been preparing during the final months of the year. In these budgets the growth strategies of the companies are established, so Green light is given to new vacancies to cover the expansion objectives of the selected departments. Similarly, during the first weeks of the year, companies close their budgets for new projects and orders, so it is more likely to open new personnel selection processes for cover employment vacancies and reinforce the template during these first months of the year. Review templates Gómez points out that, in addition, between January and February the Performance assessments of all its employees. That leaves the door open to new additions to replace those employees who have not met the marked objectives. On the other hand, many employees decide take the new year To start a new stage in your work career, so the Hiring activity intensifies during the first quarter of the year. In parallel to the performance assessments of the entire template, the salary increaseswhich are one of the main reasons for job dissatisfaction. “A lot of talent does not agree with that increase and end up leaving,” the number of vacancies increasing during this period. This hiring pattern at the beginning of the year is not something new, but It is repeated cyclically every year. Gómez explains that fluctuations in work teams and in the need for personnel are part of the natural flow of companies. The data is right This “sweet point” for job search has its reflection in the official employment data that the INE collects in the Active Population Survey. Leaving aside the annual trends, there is a constant that is repeated year after year: the employment figures recorded during the first quarter of the year are always better than those of the fourth quarter of the previous year and, in many cases, than those of the second quarter of the same year. Unfortunately, You can’t always choose When to look for a new jobbut if you have been active job search for a few months, March can be a very conducive month to find the job opportunity you were waiting for, given the “need for new additions and job opportunities,” Gomez said in his video.

The swamps are so full for the rains of March that some face something unprecedented: unwind for the first time

For a good part of the twentieth century, storms in the Borbonne Valley were terrible. In 1970, the river overflowed, flooded La Vega and blocked the daily life of the region for weeks. Throughout that decade, The creation of a reservoir began, the Alcorlowhich forced evacuate locations and placed its spillway a few 700 meters from the town of San Andrés del Congosto. Since the dam was closed in 1979, I had never had to take a water to avoid overflow. Until today. What happened in the center of Spain? Although most of the attention has been taken the south, Jana has watered (and much) The entire area of ​​the central system. So much so that, during the weekend, numerous municipalities of the Henares Corridor and La Alcarria have received notices from 112 due to the possibility that the Tajo Hydrographic Conference will land a whole series of swamps from the provinces surrounding the central system. Pálmatos, Beleña and La Tajera They have already been relieved Water over the weekend and three others were about to do so. Among them, Alcorlo’s because, as he said, throughout his history, he had never had to release water before. Nervousness in the Alcarria. The mayor of San Andrés has been expressing her concern all weekend. And, although he acknowledges that the town has never come to flood (“never in its history is aware of any event of this type“),” It looks like a small sea. We had never seen it that way and it impresses see it “, The Gil Consul said in the Digital of Castilla – La Mancha. I also recognized feeling “Chills and fear” for the impact that the flood can have in the municipality. It was not disenchanted because, in the last hours, about 50 people have moved to avoid risks. The domino effect. However, the main problem will not be given in the headwaters of the rivers where these reservoirs are: The problem is downstream. The Castilla Operational Control Center – La Mancha has warned that all that unpacked water will go on the Alberche River. The province of Guadalajara and, by exemption, the entire main branch of the Tagus is preparing for that water coup (that a channel as mistreated as this will thank). And it’s not something isolated. As Álvaro Oliver explained“On just 8 days of March, in the port of Navacerrada it has rained/snowy which usually falls in the 3 months of spring. In 8 days what usually falls in 90 days. 13 times more than usual in the first week of March.” It is raining a lot. It is raining more than some sites can manage comfortably. Mission: Take advantage of each drop of water. A key factor that makes all this special rain is that it comes from Atlantic storms. That is, it normally drains into the areas where we have the reservoirs and that allows us to take advantage of it much more than we can take advantage of the water from the danas. So now we return to the start box: What do we do with all this water? How do we prepare for a summer that, if it fits the trend, will return the ghost of the drought? And again, we return to one of the key problems of our country: that We still don’t order Water resources in a responsible way and with a view to the future. Image | LBM1948 | ASQUELADD

I have climbed into the xiaomi car and now I am going to miss the Xiaomi Su7 Max every time I get on mine

The MWC is the most indicated place to test the new commercial mobiles, which are still an experiment, you find unimaginable accessories, more than in a Silicon Valley and … cars convention. Yes, cars made their way to the Tech world until they became another element of Congress. Get on to Xiaomi Su7 Max It has been one of the best experiences I take this year. When Xiaomi premiered his car in the MWC 2024 I went from those who was surprised with the play. Although I see all the meaning, since the interior of the vehicle, the exterior and all software management are pure technology. As soon as the brand’s style can be seen, sitting behind the wheel is an experience. Even behind: the Xiaomi Su7 Max admits the connection of a tablet to the headrest. The iPad is compatible with this module, it is not limited to the Xiaomi Pad. Sports style and up to 673 hp of power. That the Xiaomi Su7 Max is an electric beast is said by the figures: the double engine with up to 500 kW generates a maximum peak speed of 265 km/h with an acceleration ranging from 0 to 100 km/h in 2.78 seconds. I wish having felt that thrust, but I couldn’t get it out of the MWC. It would have been well to try the car in a circuit, but it is not yet possible: Xiaomi or markets its cars in Europe or plans to do it in the short term. The SU7 is available only in closed events and with restricted access, as in the case of the MWC. Getting up to the vehicle is an experience in itself: since you act your suitcase to open the door until you feel in the comfortable seats. I was able to try both the driver’s seat and the subsequent passengers. In the back I missed some space, especially when stretching my legs. Sports finishes without reaching the extremes of luxury. Like the Tesla, Xiaomi concentrates the management of the car on the central screen, although it is possible to choose a combination of buttons for those who are not fond of the tactile. The steering wheel is comfortable, the ignition is at hand and all the finishes are seen quality. The plastic is very present, also the shot in skin imitation. The feeling at all times is pleasant without reaching the luxury of a more classic sports car. The Xiaomi Su7 Max keeps the buttons for the basic car settings And technology? Well, the car is well loaded, as expected. Panel on the dashboard apart from the central giant console, buttons to open the doors, centralized and automatic management from the smartphone, the car has the Xiaomi assistant with AI and voice control (they made us a demonstration in Chinese, for the moment it is not compatible with other languages) and the applications are integrated into the console for, for example, to offer audio content or trace the routes with Google Maps. This is already adapted to Europe although in China it is not used. Central giant screen, but without losing sight of the physical buttons The Xiaomi Su7 Max comes standard with some automatic driving control. And you can circulate on its own in the near future, they assured me: the autonomous driving software will come in the form of update. {“Videid”: “X9FLJ5G”, “Autoplay”: False, “Title”: “Xiaomi Su7 Pro from within”, “Tag”: “Webedia-Prod”, “Duration”: “311”} If available in Spain, it is a car that I would value. The experience turned out to be as comfortable as technological. And without appreciating the slightest improvisation: Xiaomi has thought of every detail to make it is comfortable, pleasant and exciting.

In Xataka If the question is "What is Elon Musk doing in China" The answer is simple: saving the future of Autopilot The exterior design is almost traced to Porsche Taycan, in many elements of the interior the inspiration in Tesla can be seen. Even so, getting into the Xiaomi Su7 Max gives its own sensations, it is a higher quality car. At least in a first contact, for a long -term assessment, an in -depth analysis would need.

Interior of the Xiaomi Su7 Max The strength of the body, the equipment benefits, the purely sporty soul, the amount of accessories available (they taught us the essence dispenser, it is quite curious), all the compatibility with the smartphone, the future autonomous driving and the care in every detail seem of a brand dedicated exclusively to the design of cars. Xiaomi sells in China every SU7 that manufactures. Would it happen the same in Europe?. Xiaomi does not have a production too high of cars and everyone who manufactures They are sold instantly in their country of origin. And without being precisely cheap: the Xiaomi Su7 Max that I got going to 38,400 euros to the change. Driving control integrated in the steering wheel The doubt is: how much could Xiaomi put his car if he managed to distribute it in Europe? The equipment and characteristics of the Xiaomi Su7 Max are in line with the best of current EVS, maintaining an equivalent price with that of China would be a huge attraction to enter the market.

Elon Musk has promised an autonomous car service in June. Time passes and only has a car like those of a lifetime

“Before 2027, let me say so.” With these words, Elon Musk launched its last order: United States will enjoy a Tesla Robotaxis service operated by cars without steering wheel or pedals in less than two years. That was the great promise of the company’s CEO last October 2024 when Tesla presented her cybercab. The project cannot be more ambitious. At the moment, the only ones who had strengthened as operators were Waymo and Cruise And his work is known for operating in Some neighborhoods of San Francisco with traditional vehicles adapted to a driver without driver. Cruise, in addition, has decided to give folder To this race for the autonomous car after burning billions of dollars. The background They would shake anyone and, above all, they doubt that Tesla is able to move forward such an ambitious project in such a short time space. Despite this, Elon Musk already advanced in January that yes, that This summer We would see evidence of his Tesla Cybercab in Austin (Texas). With a steering wheel or flying, it is something that will only say time. The logical step For now, what we know is that Tesla has requested permission Transportation Charter Party to the California Public Services Commission (CPUC). This step is essential to be able to be able to be able to a fleet of vehicles that are used as a taxi service. They explain in Bloomberg That, until now, there was no record of this step although Musk had assured that he hoped to be able to put this business at the service of customers at the end of the year. That is, the first steps would take place in the Texan city of Austin and, later, in the state of California. The first step, yes, is to show that cars are safe and reliable for themselves. And, for that, they need a driver who verifies the possible problems or errors in which the system may fall. Waymo and Cruise cost them years operate in California and the latter left after star in various accidents. To reach this stadium, Tesla would have to request another permission in which its intention to work without drivers after the steering wheel is specifically collected. However, this permission has not been facilitated in California, according to internal sources to the economic newspaper and Reuters. It must also be taken into account that the process to be able to Operate in San Francisco It is slow. First you need to overcome the approval of the regulators performing tests with driver, then it could operate without them but as long as I did not charge for the service. The last step is to be able to charge for the paths. We will have to see how far the strip and loosen with the state of California (governed by the Democrats). It is a region that was willing to keep the purchase subsidies of electric cars despite The government aspires to end them. California’s answer has not only been resistance in this regard, he also wants Take Tesla of them claiming that they sell too many cars. In Texas, however, things seem to be simpler. They explain in Bloomberg That completely autonomous cars do not need special permits to circulate so that the bureaucratic steps to be given are minors. In addition, it would be necessary to wait if the figure that Elon Musk has in the Government, since the state of Texas is controlled by the Republicans but the city of Austin is governed by the Democrats. At the moment, all we have are images of the Tesla Cybercab performing tests with a steering wheel on the dashboard. It is essential for the electric car company to continue taking steps towards a future where you can make profitability to the service. A profitability that, in Musk’s words, should burn its first stage in June of this year when you should be offering “trips with self -employed cars for money”, in words used to a call with investors and published by Reuters. However, the time period given by Elon Musk is so narrow that he opens the door to doubt and think that we could be before the nth promise not fulfilled in a timely manner. Much more if we consider that the company itself is pending to receive the approval in California To be able to operate your Full self driving (Your most advanced driving aid system) without supervision, something that already Mercedes In very specific traffic circumstances.

For the first time, a private company has managed to reach the moon successfully. And it has been after resurgence from bankruptcy

The early morning of March 2, the Blue Ghost ship of Firefly Aerospace fell gently on the lunar surface. It was the First time in history that a private company achieved a completely successful moon landing: in vertical and with the solar panels well -oriented to survive the 14 days that a lunar day lasts. Blue Ghost nailed the moon landing. Preceded by the failures of the Beresheet ships (From the Israeli company Spaceil), Hakuto-R (of the Japanese ispace), Pilgrim (of the American astrobotic) and Odysseus (also American intuitive machines), Blue Ghost landed in a stable position after a descent maneuver designed to dodge rocks and dangerous geographical accidents. The lunar module touched soil in the Mare Crisium region, near the volcanic formation of Mons Latreille. The instruments and sensors on board reported that Blue Ghost was at an optimal angle, and the first images of the shadow projected by the Firefly Aerospace ship showed that it had perched on the lunar surface vertically. A respite for NASA. The historical achievement of the Texana company is also an achievement for NASA, which breathes quiet after the first round of the CLPS program (Commercial Lunar Payload Services), designed to send regular missions to the Moon in commercial ships. Intuitive machines I could achieve the second in a couple of dayswhen its new Nova-C module athens tries to alunize in the South Lunar Pole after Nova-C Odysseus overturns in February 2024. The Ghost Riders. On board the Blue Ghost module of Firefly there is a series of instruments, experiments and technological demonstrators, mainly from NASA, that will drill the soil to collect samples, investigate how the dust rises to mitigate the problems they represent in future lunar missions, and measure the level of radiation and the magnetic activity in the environment. Blue Ghost will display and operate these loads for 14 terrestrial days, equivalent to a lunar day, before the lack of sunlight and the very low temperatures compromise their batteries. An eclipse of earth. Blue Ghost has already given us overwhelming images of the Dawn on the moon or the Planet Earth in the firmament. “We are all in that image,” Firefly engineers recalled during the press conference. But the best will come in the last days of mission. Among the planned mission milestones are the capture in high definition of a total eclipse on March 14, when the earth blocks the sun from the perspective of the ship on the moon, as well as a recording of the lunar twilight on March 16 in which we will see the lunar dust levitating. The Renaissance of Firefly Aerospace. The Firefly feat is especially remarkable taking into account the recent history of the company, marked by a bankruptcy, an internal scandal and a sound change in property. Firefly was saved by the Ukrainian inverter Max Polykovwho invested around 200 million dollars and resurrected the company. However, Polykov was forced by the United States government to sell its majority participation in 2022 for a symbolic price of 1 dollar. And all for geopolitical reasons. Since then, Firefly was under the majority control of the private capital firm AE Industrial Partners. His current CEO is Jason Kim, who assumed the company’s management in October 2024 after his predecessor, Bill Weber, retired from An alleged inappropriate relationship With an employee.
