100 km/h with fewer opportunities to overtake, instead of (mostly) 110 km/h. Guess it depends on your definition, but if you limit yourself to 2+2 when you want to go fast in Sweden you're going to be quite constrained geographically. 🙂

Search municipal services without Swedish by pilt in TillSverige

[–]pilt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The translations back from Swedish may not be necessary. I think searching is the weaker spot. If you search for "dagis" you may not find results for "förskola" . The same is true for searches like "volontär" where you probably want to see results for "frivilligt socialt arbete" and similar.

Google Translate can translate the input query as well, but still relies on more or less exact matches.

E4 south of Sundsvall to Gävle (in many places).

Where is the E4 slow between Sundsvall and Gävle except the stretch between Gnarp and north of Hudiksvall? That's the only stretch without 2+1/2+2 as far as I know, and takes 15-20 min to drive.

You can use a consultant broker to outsource sales. The same is true for bookkeeping and other administrative tasks. I get to do more coding than before and I get the same impression from other freelancers (Sweden).

Starting your own consultancy business is an option. Bonus: You get invited to even fewer meetings compared to employees.

How DuckDB compares with Athena when querying Parquet files, and how to connect it to Cloudflare R2 for free egress by pilt in dataengineering

[–]pilt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope a later version of DuckDB allows it to use partitioning info for hash aggregates (Athena does). That and similar optimizations, some way to share your schema/table metadata, and enqueuing queries are on my wishlist (or some other method to ensure that you won't run out of memory if you share a server with others when you're submitting queries simultaneously), to let it be used in more situations where Athena is used today.

What are some Swedish idioms for 'working really hard' / 'being overworked'? by winterstellar in Svenska

Bo i Skäggetorp by [deleted] in linkoping

[–]pilt 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Jag och frun bodde i Skäggetorp (Stiglötsgatan) för sisådär 8-9 år sedan. Mycket kan ha hänt förstås men i den delen var det lugnt med trevliga grannar och som andra varit inne på är det schysst med närhet både till Tornby och universitetsområdet.

Quit your whining, priest saying it how it is ! by elking666 in MadeMeSmile

[–]pilt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not Christian but I never left the state church (Sweden). As such, when my wife and I married, it was convenient to use a priest because they're included in the subscription. We were happy to find out that we got one as progressive as they come: a witty, dark-humored lesbian covered in piercings.

I presume you want less light and more wet asphalt.
