What is the difference between a road and a street (English is not my first language)?

Oh, that's not at all what is supposed to look like, guess boost doesn't have subscript syntax but other clients do

Yeah, I'm aware. Monthly (very basic tho) food is $40–$80 (converting from local currency) per person. Rent is $200–300 for a 2 bedroom basic apartment.

At the same time, "luxury" things are way more expensive here. Smartphones, computers and cars, for instance, are almost 2x the price. Shoes and clothes that are beyond expensive here are normal in the US.

So our cost of living is way cheaper, but our purchase power is lower still. If you can work remotely, you are paid in dollars, and can travel to the US to buy things, you can live a very comfortable life here with an income that you would struggle in there.

PS: I'm using $1 = R$5, which is not true, because our currency is dying. Using more updated prices only make the discrepancy even greater

Edit: weird subscript syntax the tilde

Not related, but I find it wild how $11/ hour can be low for someone in a first world country, while that would be life changing for someone in a developing country (I for once make a less than $5/hour, converting from local currency, and that is already relatively high around here, a lot of people make $2/hour)

I'm not saying that you should be satisfied earning $11/hour, I'm just saying how strange it is that, even earning roughly 5x more, you guys struggle to pay the bills all the same

Even when I was a child, I always thought that the place they live looks fantastic. Nice woods next to the house, chill neighborhood, the kid can roam free to play around. As a child I never understood why Calvin was so annoyed by everything while living such a dream

Hot take: just use code.

Most data that you would store in some kind of encoding would be better as code. Code is fast, compact, versatile and easier to work with than a text, or even a binary encoding.

If the problem is that the data is large, and that would slow down the initial load, you can split it in dynamic linked modules, and lazy load them as needed

I can confirm, it works just fine on brave search. I set the time limit to yesterday and it still gave me results

For a moment I thought it was just nonsense, not actual words
