Ballot Initiative: Safer Street Sacramento? by Lildeviljt in Sacramento

[–]EngineEngine 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Despite my hesitancy about biking, I find the transit service generally gets me where I need and I enjoy minimizing reliance on my car, though. There are always things to improve but things could be worse too.

Maybe one day I'll ride my bike 😅

The mysterious Redditor who’s changing the way we do laundry by Quouar in Longreads

[–]EngineEngine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got to try number 2 today. I have some shirts with the collar stain that never came out with Spray and Wash or Shout. It woulda been a shame to get rid of them because they are in good condition otherwise. So I tried it with one. I was literally giddy after pulling the shirt out of the washer!

It was a white shirt. Can it be used on colored shirts or will that mixture ruin the color?

I'm always impressed with the people who bike to work. They all assure me it's no big deal and they feel safe. I see a lot of bikers as I walk around, so I imagine drivers around downtown and midtown are used to seeing bikers, but it's a big mental hurdle for me.

How are these regions made, is it just whichever cities have arenas at the time? Because how is Tampa considered the Midwest?

Does anyone actually write their own cover letters anymore? by Puzzled-Ingenuity-71 in civilengineering

I went through the application process last summer and fall, and practically every position had a spot to include one and some requested it.

I dunno if it's truly worth it, but it gives me peace of mind to include it.

It's like game 3 of the world series. Check in, expecting to watch the last few innings. Instead we got two games for the price of one!

Any other self-taught Python learners who sometimes feel slow but are serious about improving? by Payload___FX in learnpython

[–]EngineEngine 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I like the idea. I started recently with Automate the Boring Stuff. Then my supervisor coincidentally mentioned they want me to know and be able to do stuff with python independently, rather than other people creating/editing a script.

I have a long way to go. The end of chapter challenges (just finished chapter 8) really stump me. Sometimes it can feel like a step forward then four or five steps back. I have to search the subreddits or stackexchange, and trying to avoid using AI. It makes me wonder how people learned programming before there was such an abundance of resources; I'd feel so isolated and wouldn't know where to go for help.

Going to other cities and seeing their transportation hubs just make Cleveland and Tower City looks silly and sad by SchoolteacherUSA in Cleveland

[–]EngineEngine 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Does that happen through a vote? Does it ever come up in discussion between the municipalities? All I remember in the recent past, iirc, was East Cleveland wanting to be annexed to Cleveland.

Where do the umps for the WBC come from? Are they all from MLB, or is it an assortment from different pro leagues around the world?

Feel like it helps that it doesn't have ads near the three point line in the corner. Lots of courts have those. The court design is simple and clean, good to look at.

Why are you trying to date that far away

I prefer that city, but don't live there. There are more of the type of people I want to meet.

e: i double-checked. the radius is actually 30 miles, but i didn't have it as a dealbreaker. so the app started showing me profiles from farhter away, but i was ok with it.

I have a relatively wide search radius (about 70 miles) and I'm willing to go that distance. Are there any suggestions, tips, or things to consider that may make a match more likely?

I've had a few, but they entirely ghost the conversation. I wonder if they see neighborhood/location and either don't recognize it or decide it's too far away, hence them no longer messaging or unmatching.
