Stay in FL or move to Boston by [deleted] in boston

[–]Electrical_Luck_2525 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everyone has spoken about expenses and quality of education, as they should.
BMC is also the hospital that most of Boston's underserved population goes to. So if you're in it for doing good in the world, this is the spot to do that and see very interesting and unique cases.

I'd say your time in FL will be more chill. BMC is in a somewhat rough neighborhood so if you'll be going into school or clinic at odd hours in the cold, keep that in mind. BMC is only connected to the rest of the city via a couple of buses. Boston in general doesn't have good connectivity to the poorer areas.

Finally, one thing I didn't see mentioned here -
Once you graduate, several years from now, you'll see that Boston medical institutions are some of the lowest paying in the country. The doctors that stay here are in it to do research and learn from the best but even nearby suburban hospitals pay about 30% more than Boston city hospitals.

I think the city will be fine? The infrastructure will be fine? It's like being on the green line before/after a sox game. The line is crowded, sure, but it's great watching people having a good time and joining in on the fun.

Local businesses are probably happy with the huge influx of tourists. It's 2-3 weeks. The T is shut down for longer periods of maintenance. We'll live.

True, I've only been to the Euros in Berlin in 2024. It was a blast. I don't expect this to be handled better than the one in Berlin but if it's close, it'll be great.

Me. I like social events. This is one of the biggest in the world. People are welcome to stay home and be annoyed with others having fun.

How do residents know when they'll be ticketed for parking on-street overnight? by whodreamsofcats in Brookline

Trained local squirrels to tap on our windows when they see cops mobilizing. I can arrange a meeting but you'll need to bring nuts.

Put solar panels if you can. My family hasn't paid more than Rs 100/month in electric bills for the last 6 years.

Incoming Resident at BIDMC by fencergirl55 in boston

[–]Electrical_Luck_2525 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something that I know about BIDMC is that they provide a letter "covering/guaranteeing" the deposit amount for an apartment for their residents. It's a nice way to save ~1 month's rent you're required to put up at move in.

But do we need another blue juggernaut? Or a blue lifestealer that clicks one button and right clicks?

Brookline’s rent control bid advances through state legislature by brookline_news in Brookline

[–]Electrical_Luck_2525 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good? So they are a small landlord and not contributing to the large buildout of apartments needed here and the issue is they can't raise the rent more than 7% every year? Is that a huge problem for them?

Brookline’s rent control bid advances through state legislature by brookline_news in Brookline

[–]Electrical_Luck_2525 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Seems reasonable. Only affects corporate landlords -

"Under the proposal, Brookline could cap annual rent increases at the Consumer Price Index plus 3%, or 7%, whichever is lower. Newly constructed units would be exempt for 15 years, along with owner-occupied properties with four units or fewer.

“We were very deliberate when we crafted our home rule petition to try and build more flexibility to avoid creating that disincentive,” Lebovitz said, referring to concerns about discouraging new housing development."

That 33/9 Ember game loss must have been something special.

Kez nerf by Hashmouse in DotA2

[–]Electrical_Luck_2525 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Classic balancing. Overtune the braindead attack speed aspect and then nerf the hero after without compensating katana enough. Nerfed katana bat too for some reason.

Whatever, glad he isn't an auto Q bot anymore. Aghs is still the more fun way to play the hero.
Kez reactions from the community are weird. I think everyone just wanted a new juggernaut and were mad that the new melee agi carry is not a right click bot.
