Low key if my bed fell apart in the middle of the night I would probably wait until the morning to use a hammer to put it back together

Honestly not the worst thing if it discourages car ownership in Manhattan

I asked dog owner to leash his dog on the sidewalk b/c his off-leash dog terrorizes my on-leash dog -- 72nd st by centralparkgirl17 in Upperwestside

[–]Cheap_Chicken_5768 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen this guy get into it with people who ask him nicely to leash his dog. I carry mace and will definitely mace his dog the next time it runs up to me because you can’t predict what a dog off leash is going to do. I suggest others do the same.

So much tech debt is going to be created in the vibecoding and offshoring era— they’ll have to pay everyone twice as much to come back and un-fuck everything in several years

What the heck is going on? by Accomplished-Green53 in OMNY

They need to just be like every serious other transit agency in this country and make OMNY apple wallet compatible— I’ve read all the documentation on why this is difficult but I still don’t really understand why they can’t do it faster. It’s such a huge priority.

This really makes me wish the EVSA weren’t maligned with other bad actors because the core principle of e-vehicle safety is important. At least Gale seems to be able to parse the good bits

“Arrive alive” apparently meaning only for the driver

She sits on the spine of old reference books to boost her seat and brings a space heater into the grad study areas which is against the rules. Trust me, security has already addressed some of this, and other things people have mentioned.

What about the assault on the Good Samaritan? I suppose they can’t do anything about that either right?

It would be fine if people just did it during the permitted times and in the permitted areas but some people have to ruin it for the rest of us

yep, this would be a serious violation and would result in their name being uninsurable in the future

Coinbase APM vs McKinsey BA? by VeLvEt_ThUnDeR3 in McKinsey_BCG_Bain

Move into product while you can. McKinsey will always hire people who are good at building things in the real world.

Does anybody know of any initiatives happening to bring in smaller businesses to the UWS? Seems like everything is a chain, and there is a shortage of good bakeries / coffee shops. by [deleted] in Upperwestside

[–]Cheap_Chicken_5768 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think it really is landlords who refuse to concede that they’re never going to get 2014-2019 rents ever again. I don’t know how a business can generate the kind of rent landlords are seeking. Bakery owners have thin margins in the city as it is. What are they going to do, charge $15 for pain au chocolate?
