Also when are we going to talk about the fact that commercial airline passengers are apparently better at NORAD’s job than NORAD is? That seems…suboptimal — PolitiTweet.org

It sucks that this is happening in early February because no one will remember this by the time we have to come up with Halloween costumes. — PolitiTweet.org

Can't wait to see these. The first volume was a mixed bag for me, but then I've never been into anime. I'm intrigued by this broader palette of styles. — PolitiTweet.org

You can look at this as a very in-the-weeds aspect of Fick's role as the U.S.'s new top cyber diplomat, but I look at it as a major test of his clout inside the State Department and the broader administration. He's the only one I've heard pushing for this. Can he get it done? — PolitiTweet.org

Fick: "Imagine a world in our diplomatic establishment where people were actually rewarded or required to acquire and demonstrate expertise in technology diplomacy in order to ascend to the highest ranks in our organization. That's what we need.” — PolitiTweet.org

Eric Geller @ericgeller

Noting that the 1986 Goldwater–Nichols Act required every flag officer candidate to have done at least one joint tour of duty, Fick said he can "imagine a future" where every chief-of-mission candidate similarly has to demonstrate proficiency in cyber and tech issues. — PolitiTweet.org

"We're going to we're going to ramp up the number of people we can push through that course," Fick added. — PolitiTweet.org

Eric Geller @ericgeller

"My goal is that we have a basically trained cyber and digital policy staff member in every mission in the world that matters ... in the next two years," Fick said. @FSIatState's training course is "oversubscribed," he said. He'll be speaking at that course's initial class soon. — PolitiTweet.org

At @gmfus event this AM, @StateCDP chief Nate Fick reiterated the need for cyber and technology issues to be deeply ingrained in all U.S. missions abroad. He wants CDP to be "a service provider organization. The real work is happening at posts and missions around the world." — PolitiTweet.org
