There are mitigations and a couple of hours of dev downtime is imo not the end of world. Sure, prod incident could overlap with a devpod incident but sounds like they still have the choice to do local dev.

> Is it a racial comment when the leader of a country uses that exact quote to describe how they will deal with anyone who threatens the harmony of China, including the situations that the grandparent was referring to?
It is, when your message is an explicit commented on "I think that's the Chinese way of thing:[...]". Please understand that Xi does not speak for all Chinese (hence the protest and conflict) and having an idiom about crushing bones says next to nothing about how a culture or race is.
There are plenty of idioms in English about idiots. Does that say anything about English speakers? I highly doubt it.
--- Update Pardon my words. I said it too hastily and don't mean to accuse you. I am born in China and have lived 10 years there. I disagree with some of the actions of the current Chinese government but I am also frustrated with people commenting on things without spending enough time to self educate.
The link that you have attached seem to be mostly anti-government and (IMO) provides a very limited view on a very complex problem.

Why? Because they are Chinese, and food ordering is not by headcount but by nationality.

We need to decrease emission, but it should be across board on a per capita basis.
