My family has switched to a "cereal" that is made mostly of milk products. I wonder if those products are being counted.
I mean, yeah, the previous generation had it easier, and society provided them with a reality in which they could buy a home for a family on a single income, for example

Now, the same people are buying up multiple properties that the next generation would otherwise live in, so they can rent-seek instead of earning the money improving society.

Indeed, the previous generation claiming the current generation is "entitled" is a story as old and boring as time, but the ones now obliviously claiming it without realizing they had it better, pretending they were "roughing it" with their 1-income mortgages, are truly the most entitled of all.

It truly is remarkable, not only for the vast improvement in outcome for patients, but also the science.

The genetic defect that causes CF results in a chloride channel receptor being malformed so it it doesn't function correctly.

The fact they were able to develop a small molecule that perfectly fits within the defective receptor and then causes the receptor to change conformation so that it's now functional is absolutely remarkable.

Then layer on top the company has developed a few molecules that can address the different defects in different patients is really amazing science.

It's transformed a disease where patients die in their 30's or undergo a risky lung transplant (and still suffer other aspects of the disease after) to a more moderate, treatable disease where life span is normal is one of the great medical achievements of our lifetime.

This sticks out to me. IAM isn't crazy, and having access controls in place is going to be the very first thing you want to do when you bring someone else on board. Maybe you're not there yet, but it would be a wise time investment to understand how these work, to the point where they don't feel confusing.

This goes beyond just groceries. I've lived in a few countries that vary in population from hundreds of millions to just a few million and the impact of scale is very noticeable.

It's very intuitive, but the actual impact is eye opening. I've found that for almost all products and services, the size of the US results in far more companies offering said product/service, which results in a lot more competition and better prices.

You see it not just across consumer items, but things like financial services.

The "breakfast of champions" slogan, given how popular it became, sounds like it would make for an interesting case study where people agreed to marketing, even if their individual experiences must have been that the food isn't really as filling as other options. Maybe it's a breakfast of sports champions who eat it as pre-workout, but surely it's not a breakfast that makes champions.

Yes, I think the correlation between MBA popularity as a degree and failing of US industry is fairly causal.

It's the same in universities, where more and more time and money is spent on "management" (extracting value) and less and less is spent on actually teaching stuff (creating value).

Unsurprisingly, when a (somewhat large) portion of the population in a high productivity society realizes they can just skim off the top without doing any actually useful work, bad things happen.

Tens of thousands of patients in USA, and given the massive longevity improvements, that count will go up. And add to that a likely increase in childbirths by CF patients.

This is a strong claim, which I think needs some references to support it.

I see it as a game that many feel is or justifiably should be as a fair one but like so many other things in life is not in fact fair.

Sometimes we see the injustice clearly such as when a affluent person evades jailtime for the same crime that sent a under privileged person to jail.

I am planning for my kids to attend college absolutely and have guided them to play a sport I think is a signal. By grade 8 they had all done the requisite volenteer hours at the places I feel are right. They took a language I feel they will need to be successful. They take advanced courses to boost their GPA above 4. I have encouraged them to be in the after school clubs I think are important even though they refuse to do them. They keep certain friends of our family apprised of their grades and other milestones.

All that said, they play their fill of among us, hang with friends and refuse to clean their rooms and know they are free to push back on my recomendations.

We keep them directed and motivated but empowered. They will leverage that life lesson as well come application time.

One thing we dont do is have them work temporary jobs.

I recognize that is a necessity for many families but we are fortunate that we have the resources that make that a non factor. My kid's sports are already basically part time jobs and build plenty of character, pride and respect for hard work.
How many billions are you talking here?

One thing I have a problem with in the workplace is what goes unsaid because everyone in the (chat) room already understands the premise and are on the same page versus things they have not even thought about.

For example, let's say there is an azure function that does something but is failing some of the time. I'll say something like hey me sending a message to the service bus again fixed this issue for me. Three people will yell at me and say sending this message doesn't do what I think it does. I'm sorry how do you know what I'm thinking? A week or so goes while we struggle with this problem. It isn't even a big problem because we can all clearly see the code and can read what it does but people are so confidently incorrect about their own code. Finally about a week later someone else has a revelation. Oh resending the failed message seems to fix the problem. And I'm thinking how did you not get that conclusion from what I said.

I feel like I'm missing some context because I feel like the senior developers in the room want to manufacture a crisis so they can rewrite the whole function but how do I ask this question out loud?

I mean I fully support that the code needs a rewrite. It is difficult to read and frankly the approach isn't very good but it feels like we are hesitant to making small incremental improvements today lest management thinks it is good enough and refuses to pay for a rewrite? Am I overthinking this?

It is absolutely pathetic what that place and Seaquarium and other places have done and how they've been operated. An orca names Kiska recently passed away at Marineland.

Tokitae, otherwise known as Lolita, recently died a Seaquarium in Florida. She had been in captivity for 53 years and spent 43 of those years alone as the sole orca in an enclosure basically the size of a moderate swimming pool, only sharing the tank occasionally with dolphins that would harass her. Her last tankmate, Hugo, committed suicide in 1980 by repeatedly ramming his head against the tank walls until he eventually had a brain aneurism. Upon Tokitae's death, the Seaquarium immediately performed a necropsy, leaving Tokitae in 50 gallon buckets after being quartered up, which was against the wishes of the Lummi Nation. Apparently the Seaquarium thought it important to know why she died, when apparently the decades of abuse, bacterial infections, drilling her teeth, being attacked by dolphins in her enclosure, damage to her teeth and skin from rubbing against walls, etc. wasn't enough to know.

Here are some videos that show absolutely heartbreaking behavior for any animal, much less an animal where females can weight up to 8,000 pounds and an animal that can dive up to 100-200ft and swim for 75-150 miles in a day out in the wild ocean.

For reference, her tank enclosure has a depth of 10-20 feet (yes, they even lower the tank depth at times by removing water).

Honestly, the people responsible for this should be put in prison for the entirety of their lives. If I was in a position of power, I would immediately grant orcas and likely other animals non-human person status, giving them the same life rights we attempt to give most humans. This behavior is absolutely psychotic.

And because the U.S. has shown how much money can be made from it, other countries have taken up the practice of capturing orcas and putting them on display, namely China. It's beyond heartbreaking and saddening.
Nope. Fads come and go.
Has anyone asked Elon how to fix manufacturing in the U.S? Has he given anyone any ideas. The guy probably does as good or better job at manufacturing in the U.S than anyone else, and he has plenty of plants in foreign countries, so he can compare and contrast. Alas, the current administration hates the guy, and you can't have a guy who's clearly on the wrong team get to take credit for anything these days.

Edit: He did have something interesting to say about the "idiot index" which is the price of a component over the cost of the raw materials. If that's very high, it means there are serious problems at that manufacturing organization.

There's so much inefficiency in American manufacturing. It cost SF $1 billion a mile to extend the subway for example.
Just yesterday, a colleague at another campus confided to me she was concerned about her future performance evaluations. Other people at work have started using ChatGPT to generate papers at a faster rate, and she is concerned the administration will eventually view her as a low-performer if she doesn't keep up.

> I don't understand why they talk about it as a rectangle, and not in terms of the total length of pipe?

Because the total length of pipe is not useful: you could have a one set of pipes going to the kitchen, another to bathroom #1, and another to bathroom #2.

* See second diagram: https://www.finehomebuilding.com/project-guides/plumbing/thr...

* https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FLhddKA1lfQ

If the first thing you is take a shower or brush your teeth, you have to run the water to bathroom #1, which heats the water in the pipe. Then you go to the kitchen to make breakfast and then you're starting over all over again because the hot water pipe is filled with cold water, and you have to waste energy filling it.

The person that uses bathroom #2 (room mate, child) also has a completely cold hot water supply pipe, so even if the first person wakes up earlier and primes the other two hot water pipes, that doesn't help with the third.

That is one design ('home runs' from the heater, through a (PEX) manifold, to each faucet), another is a giant race track (or "speedway"): so the first person that wakes may have a longer wait for hot water, but the entire system is now primed, and hopefully the next person(s) will use it before the hot water cools.

* https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=13h0L_GlOlI

But the total length of pipe in either the home-run or the racetrack setup does not help indicate things like priming and piping.

But the rectangular metric would take care of both setups, as the length and architecture wouldn't really matter given the short runs.

Gary Klein, the person who came up with the metric, has been looking at hot water systems for a few decades, so he's see a few designs in this day, and this metric is a way to easily take into account various ways pipes are run and connected.

The metric also quite easy to measure on blueprints as you don't have to try guessing how pipes will be run (up or down walls, through attics or basement, etc): just draw a square in AutoCAD, SketchUp, etc, around all the faucets. No plumbing expertise by the architects required.

Disgusting but probably. Cereal is at an interesting crossroads now.

I think it’s sad they haven’t released a successor to SpriteKit/SceneKit.

RealityKit looks promising at first glance, but it’s definitely AR first, and has some odd limitations like no tvOS.

Like your reply hints, their strategy seems to have shifted to making it easier to port games from other platforms rather than build them on Apple’s.

This.
In addition to the 4 Cs of marketing, I would look at Porter's 5 forces and make an industry analysis:

Competitive Rivalry

Supplier Power

Buyer Power

Threat of Substitution

Threat of New Entry

(There's also a sixth force, complementary products)

I think these also tie in nicely with an analysis of where the best profit pools exist within the value chain. Apple makes more profit selling an iPhone than Foxconn because its position in the value chain has a more favorable 5 forces situation: a much lower threat of substitution, lower supplier/buyer power, lower threat of new entry etc.

You can have great brand positioning and never make a dime. Example: Uber. A dominant brand with universal recognition, which has done nothing but lose money. They'll never make money because their supplier power, buyer power, and threat of substitution are impossibly high. They're caught between their suppliers' (drivers') price demands and their buyers' (riders') prices sensitivity.
You haven't really understood what I said.

You can want one thing, but you have to live with the real thing.

Some people think meat tastes good, regardless of seasoning. Drawing attention to seasoning is just a red herring.

Go for backend. Yes it’s a bit more tedious. But in return you get deadass simple builds and pretty amazing performance. Also tbh it’s not that tedious to write SQL and tests. I’ve almost always run into issues with ORMs when things get complex.

Use Postgres and embedded db for cache. With SSD and Nvme you can leverage the embedded db for crazy performance. These days you can get a lot of storage space. Swap file and 5gb of space for the db as cache and you’re speeding. Save money and the network call, don’t need Redis.

React or svelte for UI. Don’t use next or any of that bloat. Use vite and lazy loading. If you need SSR don’t use SPA tech, maybe sveltekit would be good. I use sveltekit and react mostly.

For anything else like using sdk I use node if it’s not available for Go.
