Cracked, especially in saying "cracked engineers", refers to really good engineers these days. It's cracked as in like broken in a good way, like too over-powered that it's unfair.
> I've seen footballers using it a lot over the years (Neymar, Messi etc) fwiw.
The word "craque" in Portuguese was borrowed from English with the "exceptional" definition and is commonly used. Given how many Brazilian players there are in the top leagues, I wouldn't be surprised if it was commonly used by football players in general.
If I didn't know that it was real, I would have thought it was parody.
> We are assembling a lean, cracked team of the world’s best engineers and researchers dedicated to focusing on SSI and nothing else.
Do you have to have a broken bone to join?
Apparently, grammatical nuances are not an area of focus for safety, unless they think that a broken team ("cracked") is an asset in this area.
