It's about half the size of the Ridgeline trunk, mostly due to shallower depth.

My trunk always contains a small toolbox, bicycle pump, electric SUP pump, several camp chairs and a folding table, PFDs, SUP/kayak paddles, water shoes/flip-flops, tie-downs, and some other odds/ends, with room to spare.

Yes, my kids love our local AA baseball team.

Basically, everything is an energy problem. If we have cheap, clean, energy, we can solve a lot of our problems.

For example, if we had nuclear powered desalination plants, we could have more than enough fresh water.
I guess you could make it a vector space through a bijection with the rational numbers, but something tells me C++ programmers don't have that in mind when writing std::vector<unsigned>. And it doesn't solve the problem that C++ “vectors” are resizable.
> So if you're forcing child support, most are going to hold a grudge and demand custody of some sort.

Fortunately, that's not actually true. I get that you likely know of lots of times where this has happened, but the vast majority have uncontested custody. Where custody is contested, the father usually wins at least some version of shared custody, but most of the time that doesn't result in an abusive home.

It's been my experience and it's backed up by HHS data that the most common abuser in these situations is actually the mother, and the most common form that takes is neglect. Access to abortion and resources is more important to solve this than reforms to lessen child support payments.
> swarm of drones

That swarm of drones will almost certainly be spotted by the AEGIS air defense network (the cruisers and destroyers that escort the carrier), and shot down. Cruisers and Destroyers serve as the "screening" role for the Carrier, you will always see the cruiser/destroyers first in the Carrier Strike Group no matter what angle you approach from (and vice versa, they will see you first before you get to the Carrier).

This gives the cruisers/destroyers a chance to shoot down the drone swarm (or whatever air platform you're using). If its too much for the sea-based air defense systems to handle, they'll radio for assistance from the Carrier and F18 / F35 jets will be dispatched, beyond the horizon, before the swarm even sees the Carrier or pinpoints its location.

That's the difficulty of fighting a Carrier. Not the Carrier itself per se, but the entire team that works together. AEGIS cruisers have the best radar systems the US Navy can offer, and their large power plants can make their RADAR systems more sensitive / higher power than anything you can possibly hope to put into a drone.

I think the best way to increase your user experience skills is to be comfortable using design patterns. By learning how to use them, you will be able to create a consistent experience for your users, which can make a big difference in their overall satisfaction.

Another thing that helped me was studying designers who inspire me. Just looking at their work and seeing what they've done gave me ideas for new features and ways of improving my own designs.

I also invested in my education by taking classes and seminars about UX design. By doing this, I learned more about industry best practices and how other people were solving problems similar to those I encountered at work.

Deciding on your concentration was an important part of my education because it helped me focus on what kind of designer I wanted to become—web UI designer or UX researcher? Once I knew what type of designer I wanted to be, it helped me set goals for myself that would help me achieve my dream career goal (e.g., get hired by Google).

Implementing your learning is very important as well because if you don't practice daily then nothing will change! So, after reading articles about UX design patterns and techniques on

> When a mathematician says infinity they mean a repeatable process that we can keep doing forever.

I don't think many mathematicians would agree. The real numbers are an infinite set, but I don't think is commonly thought as something generated by a repeated process.

In common mathematics infinite sets exist just as much as finite ones.

In reality I can agree that infinite sets do not exist, but then neither do finite sets. At least, not in the way mathematicians mean.
It's unclear what utility this mindset has and how it will not lead to self-delusion.

If I convince myself I'm the most visionary product manager who ever lived, and I really believe that, it will either a) create blindspots and prevent me from proper self-reflection and self-correction or b) force me into a state of cognitive dissonance where I believe I'm the best, while knowing I'm not, creating a new and unnecessary problem for myself as I try to navigate the world.

Feedback from those around you is an important form of evidence. While it is true that ideally one should not internalize that feedback or bow to its pressure if it's related to a moral or ethical stance, it is similarly problematic to discard it entirely, and delude oneself into a form of irrational hubris.

> ...to belief in absence of evidence AND also absence of real world positive feedback all around you (which is needed for strong self-belief)

Belief in yourself is important, yes. Not taking feedback personally is important, yes.

Ignoring feedback entirely is problematic.

the point of reading is to expand your mind, have new experiences, and have new thoughts. Shortcutting that is probably not what you want to do. In fact that applies also to computers and cars. James P. Carse:

"Morever, machinery is veiling. It is a way of hiding our inaction from ourselves under what appear to be actions of great effectiveness. We persuade ourselves that, comfortably seated behind the wheels of our autos, shielded from every unpleasant change of weather, and raising or lowering our foot an inch or two, we have actually traveled somewhere.[...] Therefore, the importance of reducing time in travel: by arriving as quickly as possible we need not feel as though we had left at all, that neither space nor time can affect us—as though they belong to us, and not we to them. We do not go somewhere in a car, but arrive somewhere in a car. Automobiles do not make travel possible, but make it possible for us to move locations without traveling. Such movement is but a change of scenes. If effective, the machinery will see to it that we remain untouched by the elements, by other travelers, by those whose towns or lives we are traveling through. We can see without being seen, move without being touched."

The 38.7C and the 100F were also each one measurement. Also it's not just one measurement, at least 33 places broke the all time temperature record of the whole country today (https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-62217282)

Any app can get a general sense of your location from your IP address (unless you are using a VPN) since Apple's Private Relay feature only works in Safari and Mail, not in third party apps.

I would love the ability require apps to ask permission to access the internet, or even better, a way to limit connections to specific domains like Little Snitch can do on macOS.

Many apps don't have a legitimate need to access the internet such as a photo editing app or a single player game.

iOS shouldn't ask for internet permission by default but it would be great to have as part of Lockdown Mode or another higher security mode.

>> But kids these days have too many important things to do

> That has certainly not been my experience as a parent. They have lots of things to do, but I don't think much of it is important. It's just attention-grabbing.

I think those "important things to do" means "extracurricular activities", that probably isn't so important to you or to me, but we know other parent that doesn't let their children have any time for themself due to those activities, they are.

We're talking about learning a new language, learning to play some musical instrument, or even playing some sport in a local team. Both now and when I was a child I know and knew a lot of parent who stressed a lot, and stressed a lot their child, because they didn't sense them to advance in those activities and pressured them a lot to improve in that.
Good catch on the disclosure, I edited my original comment to reflect this fact.

On the topic of vector search, Milvus is another great vector database - it's open source and we provide single-line startup scripts via `docker-compose` in addition to installation via apt & yum (https://milvus.io/docs/install_standalone-docker.md). There are also no restrictions on the number of vectors that users can store. Internally, we've successfully scaled Milvus to handle billion+ vectors, while many of our users have stored hundreds of millions of vectors in a production environments as well.

I think this is analogous to and is happening for similar reasons as the airline customer experience gradually went from being very "classy" to increasingly "cheap" all at the same time as the market for air travel expanded tremendously.
While I agree that we direly need privacy legislation to stop openly chartered surveillance companies from tracking us through whatever means, your position doesn't work for computer security in general.

In the example from this thread the names of the table and view are reasonably clear, so even in a hypothetical project without any external documentation of naming conventions or engineering processes (code review, etc.) the most obvious thing would be to query blah instead of blahwithdeleted.

Of course, this is extremely hypothetical, and in any real project where you're generating a financial report you absolutely must have a detailed understanding of the relation that you're aggregating over. Even if your project has very strict naming conventions for tables, views, etc. you've gotta put in more work than "this short string sounds like a plausible label for the relation I want to aggregate over."
Absence of a positive self image is pretty much the definition of depression. Normally people have a defense mechanism against this in the form of cognitive dissonance. This is why people are so good at contextualising as the protagonist, or excusing their own wrongdoing, but on the flipside the better you are at honest self assessment the more vulnerable you are to breaking this defense mechanism.
It is not always the case that slow-high-quality is better than fast-low-to-medium quality.

But were you really insulted?

Cognitive biases like the ones that are described in the article are the proverbial colors of the glasses with which you look at all what happens around you. If they are too negative you will react with fear, anger, rage, and then, like a self fulfilled prophecy, people around you will start reacting accordingly. Or put it another way, if you believe that something bad is going to happen, something bad is bound to happen but in an unexpected way.

Learning about one's cognitive biases is a powerful tool but is also really hard.
From the README:

> Interoperate with your existing C++ code, from inheritance to templates

Somewhere in the docs (can't remember where) is a link to a Rust/C++ interop project sponsored by Google, Crubit:

https://github.com/google/crubit/blob/main/docs/design.md

In case it's not clear, Carbon is also at the moment a Google project.

There's not much in the Crubit README (although there is a warning not to use it), but the docs directory has some interesting stuff:

> The primary goal of C++/Rust interop tooling is to enable Rust to be used side-by-side with C++ in large existing codebases.

https://github.com/google/crubit/blob/main/docs/design.md

It's not entirely clear whether this interop is to work as envisioned for Carbon (source level?) or some other approach.

Yes, I've interviewed several AWS SWEs and was shocked at the lack of basic proficiency / competence. It's not just Amazon, though. This is everywhere.

Interviewing is it's own skill, and even then some complete head scratcher cases get through (who can't code and interview poorly).
When there is a conflict, poor communicators make it about the other person, using labels, rather than making it about the situation by indicating specific behaviour in a given moment. This is sadly very frequent and people are trained to expect things to be made personal.

If someone is labelling you and saying "don't take things personally" you can asume ignorance rather than evilness, and try to explain the difference, between personal labels and pointing a given situational behaviour.

It won't be over, because then the conflict will be about behaviours, and people have different expectations for those, what's ok and what it isn't.

Culture is a collection of expected behaviours, this is how it finally clicked for me that actually defining a culture in a startup is important when you think about it.

That's why hiring people you have worked with works so well, you don't expend time making expectations explicit.
Carbon Team, thanks for sharing, I will likely use this if I need to bridge with CXX libraries.

> The concept behind soft deletion is to make deletion safer, and reversible

IME, as with “updated_by” and “last_modified_at” columns, it's usually hazy audit requirements, not making deletion reversible, that motivates it.

A proper history store maintained by appropriate triggers solves this, and leaves the referential integrity constraints on the base table intact. (It can also be used for reversibility if you need that.)

Views conceptually would work, but then you get bitten by all the ways that all relations are not equal in real-world RDBMSs.

I don’t think people are thinking about how they come across or what they are trying to communicate, they just do it because other people do it.
So there's a gap between a key and data directly encrypted with that key. And I was willing to say it's close enough to lump it all as encryption. Let's arbitrarily say that's 15 units of separation.

You're pointing out this key is used differently, to generate the more direct keys. But I don't think that matters. I would say that using elliptic curves to transform one key into another while keeping the original key data secret is a good bit closer to the platonic ideal of encryption than 15 units. So that process shouldn't be a disqualifying factor.
