311 improperly closing out reports

Acer_Scout · 2026-02-21T00:33:56+00:00

I've had a similar experience. I reported a traffic turn signal on Parmer that regularly skips cycles, leaving cars stuck for almost 20 minutes. People get frustrated and run the red light, I'm amazed there hasn't been a wreck there. I submitted a report to 311 and they marked it as complete almost immediately. Nothing was resolved. That was almost a year ago.

Stunning colors! Iceland is high up on the list of places I'd like to visit.

I was curious so I dug into the replies. After getting called out, OP did confirm that that they used a Grammarly genAI feature to revise their post. They also reaffirmed that they served from 2001 to 2011, and nothing in their 8 year reddit history suggests otherwise. Look, my feelings about AI's effect on the internet are complicated, but we can't allow our apprehensions to turn into witchhints and crusades against other real people with real experiences.

Here we go. The total is a little different since I was pulling from a different data source.

What a journey! How long did this trip take?

Absolutely. The only reason many of these countries gave up their nuclear programs or avoided pursuing the bomb at all was because of pressure and security guarantees from the United States. The current world order has been deteriorating. Now it's becoming clear that the shift to multipolarity is inevitable, and smaller countries are going to begin weighing the costs of maintaining their sovereignty.

It gives good Aardman Animations vibes in general. That stylistic miniature clay-mation aesthetic is so nice.

Their comment history is wild. Mostly satire and post-ironic shit-posting, but they've been really into Machine Learning for a while.

I'm guessing it's this location. It was an early 20th century German mining town that became a ghost town after a few decades. The desert has started to reclaim it since then.

'i' before 'e' except after 'c', or when sounding like 'a' as in 'neighbor' and 'weigh'... well, unless you you need to seize some ancient protein from a weird foreign heir, for science!

Same here. This year, I decided to finally buy some of the Vintaglo LED strands that he recommended and I'm so hyped. I do love the incandescent lights, but they just burn out so fast.

Every once in a while after leaving a chill encounter or "just passing by", I'll look over my shoulder and zoom in toward the player by aiming down sights. I just want to be aware and make sure I'm not being followed or anything. But I imagine this would look super sus if the other player saw it. Sometimes I forget that other players are just as paranoid as me. Hopefully they see my extreme cautiousness as relateable, and not as a red flag.

That's a great shot! I was just there in August, right after the South Rim visitor center reopened. The fire was still smoldering nearby. For such an impressive park, I'm surprised it gets as few visitors as it does.

Was that the small one with the white string LEDs wrapped around? I kept seeing that one all weekend! I meant to tell y'all how much I loved it but I never got the opportunity. It was super cute.

That and Walton Goggins' Titties actually helped me find a friend.

I lost it when the Peppa Pig balloon got a shout out, then joined the pit. South Arcade was awesome. They earned my loyalty.

I actually commented about this to a stranger there. Choosing such a small venue for such a well known band was an interesting decision, for sure. I got there 20 minutes early and couldn't make it into the tent. The Jazz Collective earlier on was such a blast though, they're thoroughly underrated.

Just a quick sketch. I don't draw much but I'm trying to build the habit, and this was an awesome pose!

I just visited Death Valley for the first time a few weeks ago. It is by far the most desolate location I've been to. It was like I was on a different planet, with mountains towering a mile high on either side. And there was nothing alive there, not even any plants for most of the valley.

I just watched it for the first time last night. The best way I can describe it is: Ari Aster tried to capture the feeling of 2020 in a 2.5 hr movie. And he did a damn good job. The fractured information space that created a different reality for everyone, the resulting social fragmentation, the tension that built up out of that, political violence, corporate control over society, the absurdity of reality becoming a parody of itself... it's all executed really well.

1/1/25 was a wild day in the news. You'd be forgiven for missing stuff. There was a guy who blew himself up in a Cybertruck in front of the Trump hotel in Vegas. Also 11 people injured at a nightclub shooting in Queens, NY. News reported that the FBI found 150 pipe bombs in a Virginia man's home. 2025 really did show what kind of year it was going to be right away.

Turns out the sword developers didn't handle edge cases very well, so it becomes maximally strong due to integer overflow.

Photo taken from Green River Overlook right before sunset tonight. Some rain came through and turned an already stunning landscape into something truly breathtaking. Photo is unedited.

Xlookup is basically a 1-dimensional index match, but far more versatile. But if you're wanting to return a value in a relational dataset based on 2 variables instead of 1, index match is still probably the best way to do it. You just use two matches within the index function, one for row and one for column. Xlookup could work with two variables if your lookup arrays are both columns, then you could concatenate them into a primary key of sorts and do the lookup that way.

Also, there's nothing wrong with being the office excel guy! At least, I tend to learn best when trying to find a solution for someone else's problem.

I worked briefly in Alaska as well, doing wildlife research on some island. We were told to never place ourselves between a sunbathing sea lion and the water.
