How do they keep the rats away.

This article is behind a pay wall. Can anyone share the contents of it?

Exactly! When I'm doing research, I design it all so that it's analytical and not literal.

So, if I'm doing a sketching session with people about a pet care app, I have them draw a fantasy physical space that would allow them to provide amazing care for their pets. Then break it down -- are there people there? Is it big or small? Outside or indoors? Etc etc.

You end up getting super interesting elements that could be turned into digital features. Like someone says that in their space, there's a group of friendly pet owners they can talk to. That leads me to realize we should create and test a social component in our app.

I still have other designers complain that sessions like this don't help them directly inform what to make.

But it's like, so you wanted random people to design an app for you? lmao

It's our job to find creative ways to address people's needs. That's literally what good design is.

It doesn't come from a random idea that seems cool, and it doesn't come from directly copying interfaces and features that already exist elsewhere (which is what most people are limited by in terms of ideation).

It's sad that so many people in tech don't think about core needs. It should be the basis of all our work.

Oh no, do you find what these people are saying offensive? Better get a lawyer and drag them through the quartz.

Isn't that where Bo Katan found the Mythosaur?

Back in 2012 and again in 2016, they (MTA/Skanska) gave out free tours for people who lived in the construction zone of the Second Avenue Subway. Granted, the construction wouldn't reach me until 2035 at the earliest, but they said that qualified, and I wasn't going to argue. The tours sounded (and were) very cool.

On the first tour, they were still "mucking", which means hauling rocks out to the surface. They joked that you could keep as many as you could carry, and would break off pieces to anybody who wanted one. I took two. They're on a shelf in my living room.

what is this? is this part of the sewer?

I want this sign for my apartment

Looks like Lx Lugers place

All fun and games till that chicken go after you

Why should poor parents who give a damn about their child's education and future be forced to go to school with bad kids? Especially with an unresponsive (at best) educational bureaucracy?

Why are you so willing to sacrifice the future of poor kids?

Not many realize that this is a shot not of before the water was pumped out, but after it was put back in. After they found the Door, at the very bottom.

Thankfully one of the sandhogs was a grizzled, salty type, still familiar with the Old Stories. The giant bronze Seal was covered in ancient muck, and heavily oxidized. They almost broke it. But the old vet washed off some of the mud and slime, and instantly knew what it was.

Those tunnels are sealed off, now. Most of the plans showing their location destroyed. But the pool is still down there, and the Door, and the Seal. And what lies beneath that, in the deep forgotten dark.

It waits. And it seethes.

I get where you're coming from but my standards are extremely high for the representatives that I have. I don't expect politicians to be perfect cuz they're human and I know for a fact as much as I want to virtue signal about how great I could possibly be... My integrity isn't high enough to turn down the possibility of making more than 150K a year and then barely doing your job.

I come from a not very great living situation and a lot of my experiences of push me to the point where I don't feel like a good person So I can understand. That's why I wouldn't want somebody like me in office but also I'm extremely transparent so it's not like I would hide shit like that I would be extremely forthright with it immediately cuz I feel like it's a selling point but to hide it seems disgusting.

And not only that but to know that they could have chosen so many other non-problematic Republicans and that was the best that they could find? Like wow.

Being a criminal does not preclude him or prevent him from running for office. It's just not surprising but sad how many Republicans decided they would rather him than any Democrat regardless of whether or not the Democrat had their best interest at heart or whether or not the Democrat had zero convictions or zero things on their record.

My only point being I can understand exactly where you're coming from but like that shouldn't be a defense. Personally I would love if there was a means where they had to effectively stand trial not in the criminal court but in the court of public opinion and have all of their shit, all of their past, shared with the world. And then let the people decide. Because even a scummy as I might be the last thing I would do is lie about it knowing my decisions affect millions.

There were swastikas outside queens college this week, was it this douche?

It sucks that Jamaica center was a nice logical end point, but if we can get a train into the 200s that'd be fucking amazing

Success Academy isn't a public school. They're a charter school. Whatever extra kickbacks they get on the public dime doesn't mean anything. They aren't public and don't abide by the same rules.

Picture is from 10 years ago. This series has more pictures: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2275380/New-York-City-expanding-nations-biggest-transit-hub-16-stories-beneath-Grand-Central-Terminal.html

"they hauled out so much rocky debris from under Grand Central that it could have covered Central Park...almost a foot deep."

You think 2022 is “old”?

Most crime stats are down year over year (murder, robbery, rape… ). But you’ll probably say they’re fake even though they track closely with the murder rate.

And NYC is very safe per capita in those stats too, one of the lowest rates in the country.

And historical stats? Crime is way lower than it used to be. We’re around mid-2010s levels how terrifying

Sounds like a recipe for big problems.

Building storey height varies widely from just under the 14-foot average to well above it.

You can have 11 op. Not 16.

Will schist talking in this thread ever end?
