No American dinner? Or American sushi? =)

We looked at taco bell as an exotic American restaurant when one opened here.

What's Romanian and Pole like?

I've had my fun around here and lately found more unusual ones... Here's stuff I remember off the top of my head that aren't the "local" around here (Lisboa, PT), append restaurant to the following:

Indian Nepalese Tibetan Cantonese Chinese Cantonese dimsun Japanese Several Fusion sushi, ramen, udon, tempura etc Spanish tapas Mexican Peruan Peruan cheviche Argentinian grilk Brazilian rodízio Brazilian(Paulista) pizza, Indian pizza, Israeli pizza, local pizza, actual Italian pizza Italian Greek Greek pita Levantine Morrocan Thematic medieval American American diner American grill Mozambican Angolan Cape verdian Ethiopian German sausage Vietnamese Indonesian Australian grill Belgian fries Canadian fries

Whenever I added something to the nationality the place focused on a dish rather than a broader cuisine. I'm surprised I never visited a self entitled French restaurant over here... The Swiss and French have all those tartar and grilled tiny chicken that could make success in a thematic restaurant.

Edit: might also add, I'm sure all of these are adapted to the local taste. We don't handle spice like most of Asia and Mexico for example. Friends who ate in Shanghai described a very different experience to what we get in a Chinese restaurant here, even if the dishes are the same.

But it's a specific best worst case : it's not only about how best you can do for yourself, it's for how far from you the opponent is. You prefer'd a -1 -100 option over a +2 +1 in minmaxing. While you'd take the second in a maximizing strategy, if there wasn't a third option thatd be like +3 +20. All that being your reward, opponent reward.

That's what I want to transmit to folks reading us.

We got dead cow, toast meat, nose, of the blacks, beautiful old lady, triangle, burnt car and drowned kids.

Min maxing is a game theory strategy (mathematics). Coincidentally useful in games and other competitions. It involves a reward and working your resources to max out your winnings while minimising the opponents'. The min max approach to a genie wish that gives you a thousand dollars but someone close to you you hate a million is to not take the wish.

But I think here who you were responding to is talking about the colloquial term: doctors focused on becoming (good?) doctors in detriment of every other skill. I personally find we in the sciences often disregard social skills too far, academically and at times professionally.

Pentium III, win7?! Do those motherboards even accept enough memory for what post vista OS slurps?

He's saying there's no proof it is. Like there's no proof of God. Doesn't mean it isn't magically possible but in our reality there isn't a defined way. If there was we'd be there.
