I assume he meant something like 櫻桃蘿蔔? Suan cai isn't in the genus of Raphanus.

Isn't the car on the left also messed up? Or are you allowed to park so close in an intersection in the US?

I wouldn't be surprised if it was intentional. "Why are you wanting to see all the files instead of just reading the normal news? Are you a nonce or what?"

Why would that matter? It just looks like HTTPS traffic if you set it up right. And even if they fingerprint it as Plex, they can't see what exactly is playing. Yes, my Plex library only has public domain content of course.

Lots of Americans traveling domestically. I was also in awe of that.

Is illicit Adderall in the US "real"? Or are they usually pressed fakes?

I never understood why speed is/was so uncommon when I was in the US a long time ago. I was offered basically everything there, but never normal speed (without methamphetamine in it) like in Europe.

Stimulants like Adderall and Xanax are often misused to cope with academic and social pressures.

I never knew benzodiazepines were stimulants.

The thing is, people usually suck at explaining themselves... so instead of a <5 minute telephone interrogation, it's suddenly a 15+ minute back-and-forth chat. But yes, I'd much rather answer a quick well-detailed text question.

It's crazy that it's literally illegal for federal employees to strike.

To mitigate these limitations and reduce write pressure, we’ve migrated, and continue to migrate, shardable (i.e. workloads that can be horizontally partitioned), write-heavy workloads to sharded systems such as Azure Cosmos DB, optimizing application logic to minimize unnecessary writes. We also no longer allow adding new tables to the current PostgreSQL deployment. New workloads default to the sharded systems.

"wow, we've made our postgres so good and fast... by moving heavy workloads to a NoSQL database engine". Truly mind-blowing, OpenAI. Just like their LLM service, not even their technical staff can stop themselves from lying and writing misleading statements.

The only interesting part could have been what they use for caching... but of course they don't give any details at all. And all the rest is already well-known DBOps stuff... and basically all automatic with stuff like cnpg.

Huh? I'm confused, where exactly was I hateful?

Disappointed, perhaps? Especially considering that the only two accidents I've been in during my entire life have been idiots with "ice and snow" (non-studded) tyres ice-skating into the back of my car.

Sorry, but American statistics aren't fully relevant to their comment. Sweden has much more rigorous laws and controls regarding tires, and a particular difference is also rules regarding the stud length and depth.

Yes, our studded tires still damage the roads a bit more than "normal" tires, but it's not an astronomical difference. The lifesaving and healthcare costs associated with studded tires weighs significantly higher. Your life is considered much more expendable in the US as well, so of course they say you shouldn't use studded tires on ice... whereas our government research institute says you absolutely should.

I also assume the US uses really cheap asfalt or something? Or because of higher speed limits? Worse driving styles: intensive speed changes instead of calm tempo driving? Despite like 65% of cars using studded tires here, I've seen less road work here in my entire life than during a single year in the US. Dunno.
