It is a shame that the term has come up like it has. It is trying to put people into a very broad category. Any one in a marriage involving a man "winning the bread" and a woman taking care of the domestic work is going to be put in the same category as people with different views on topics like immigration, tariffs, and other political topics.
- No, Relationship, Travel, creative career, kids.
- Normal job, married, "trad husband"
and I suppose there are others and "Trad" wife would cover "Happily married, kids, ‘no’ job.". I also suppose "Trad" implies a "leave it to Beaver mother " sort of lifestyle, always homemaking watching kids. Not out doing stuff.
Sort of a "human driver vs computer driver" argument, 19 yo (along with the stress, lack of sleep, adrenaline) with high powered weapons vs AI with high powered weapons.
I do not like the idea of throwing up road blocks solely to make life harder for any group of people. It seams many times laws and regulations are made for purposes other than the ones stated by supporters. So, the following is more of a general observation. I like that the US does not have an official language.
It might be worth noting that someone driving on US roads is going to see mostly English on signs and in the event that they need to speak to someone (road blocks, traffic stops, weigh stations, etc.) it will likely be spoken English. Also, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aviation_English. It might be worth making English something to have to know to be a commercial driver.

Neither do I. Such tests are supposed to be performed at weigh stations. In my opinion a road block would only be required if unqualified truckers are sharing notes on how to bypass weigh stations and there are no cameras catching this behavior or if unqualified drivers are traveling in packs to cause back-ups at the weigh stations. That needs to be fixed if so.
Ah I see what you mean. Yeah that red tape should have occurred at the DMV and should have ended with a denial of a CDL. No need to let them get so far as to be held up with a truckload of goods.
Yep, and if you're interested, Rubin doesn't send alerts directly to individuals. The alert stream alone (without full images) is enormous. There are a set of alert brokers who ingest, index, and add metadata before making the streams available in a consumable manner. You can find all the alert brokers here: https://rubinobservatory.org/for-scientists/data-products/al....
Each broker provides an interface with different strengths, and some are still scaling up as operations begin. And yes, most brokers support spatial queries (cone searches / RA-Dec filters), along with a host of other interesting parameters to filter by. You can check out the public Fink portal and API docs as an example (https://lsst.fink-portal.org, https://doc.lsst.fink-broker.org).
Rubin is still very early in survey operations, so only parts of the entire footprint have been observed so far. Depending on the region of interest, it may not have actually been observed yet (also, high quality difference image templates will take quite some time to build up). But it's very exciting to see how much data will be generated over the 10-year survey period, and once the observatory is running at full speed, the entire southern sky will be continuously re-imaged every three nights!
