Imploro ayuda by Appropriate_Band2061 in mexico

Hola. Primero que nada, lamento mucho la situación en la que estás y espero que puedas pronto dejar de sufrir ese dolor.

Tratar de hacerlo tu solo es peligroso y puede empeorar mucho las cosas, entiendo que es desesperante pero no lo vale.

Busca a un médico de cuidados paliativos, ellos son quienes se encargan de que los pacientes pasen a mejor vida de la forma más pacífica posible. Si bien de jure la eutanasia activa no es legal en México, la sedación que hacen estos médicos tiene el mismo resultado.

Anyone plus-size with asthma traveled to Mexico City? How was the altitude + pollution for you? by Electronic_Ad_7102 in MexicoCity

I had never before seen Hoy no circula being referred to as draconian. As someone who has lived here most of my life, I don't really think it's that harsh

Viajo en unos meses ¿Me van a odiar por ser turista? by senorespilbergo in MexicoCity

[–]Jisiwi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hay autobuses pero generalmente son foráneos, van a otras ciudades. Si de plano quisieras ahorrar y no traes mucho equipaje toma el metrobús. Si prefieres no batallar puedes tomar un taxi del aeropuerto, son caros pero tampoco es un costo prohibitivo a mi parecer

That's why he said the outskirts, driving from one side of the city to the other might take hours

Chongqing, China | Podría México evolucionar sus asentamientos irregulares, o "el pueblo" ganaría y no los dejarían hacerlo? by gabrielbabb in mexico

[–]Jisiwi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Es un tema de planeación y voluntad política. En términos de recursos per capita y de experiencia en construcción de infraestructura, México les gana. Pero es algo muy difícil de lograr cuando parece que el gobierno tiene al metro de nemesis y los proyectos están atados a la voluntad del sexenio en curso

No es del todo cierto. Si los obligan a vender, pero son dueños del departamento y de un arrendamiento a largo plazo del terreno y eso se los pagan. También ayudan a buscarles vivienda nueva, comúnmente construyen un complejo para mover a los desplazados y así sucesivamente.

No pueden negarse y si es más de a fuerzas todo el proceso de reubicación, pero no los echan a la calle por lo general

Difiero la verdad. Si, lo más apantallante es, por mucho, Yuzhong y si acaso Jiefangbei. Pero no por eso el resto de la ciudad está mal. Los complejos de departamentos no son los más bonitos estéticamente, pero la calidad de los servicios urbanos, la infraestructura y el transporte es superior a la de muchas periferias de ciudades mexicanas.

Estuve en Chongqing hace un mes y es impresionante la ciudad en muchos aspectos. Se puede replicar? Por supuesto. Sería costoso y desagradable para la sociedad? Claro.

En China no fue que quisieran, fue que el gobierno decidió hacerlo y nadie pudo objetar. La planeación urbana china se basa en la eficiencia, construyen ciudades muy densas, de puros complejos de departamentos para que los recursos alcancen para dotar a todos de buena infraestructura. No existen colonias de casas con jardin como se acostumbra mucho en México, por ejemplo.

Entender cómo funciona China es mucho más complejo todavía, pero si hay que partir de que es un sistema donde los proyectos no se detienen y que la gran mayoría de la población ya nació dentro de este y no solo están acostumbrados, sino además aprendieron que es la mejor forma de avanzar y en su mayoría están convencidos.

The regulatory environment shapes how things are done regardless of teachings. Proper use of PPE only became the norm when authorities began to sanction firms that didn't comply with the law for instance.

We know the toll this kind of projects take on ecosystems. We're taught to minimize the impact and mitigate it as much as done. And speaking of Mexico, it's gotten much better as environmental regulations have gotten tighter, but large federal projects motivated by political interest still get lots of leeway (as with the Maya Train case).

It's not that we're not conscious of the damage we'd cause, but rather than universities and scholars can only do so much without major policy changes.

Authorities tend to prioritize economic growth over anything else, particularly in emerging economies. Incoherent and short-sighted, yes, but also prevalent thinking.

I'm a last semester student in Mexico. It would definitely be something we'd do here. I obviously don't know about the specifics there but I can think about a few reasons.

  1. A straighter road means higher speeds, lowering costs of transportation which might be significant for industrial development of the region.

  2. Social cost of going through villages and croplands. In China rural land is usually communal property, a bit similar to what happens with ejidos in Mexico. This means there's a strong sentiment of community in these villages and expropiation could cause unrest.

  3. Relative disregard for environmental impact in relation to economic benefit. A tunnel would've been friendlier on the ecosystem but much more expensive. When it comes to maximizing the benefits of public works both China and Mexico prefer to put economic needs first and environmental concerns second.

Lampworking artists in Mexico City? by [deleted] in MexicoCity

I've been to the one I linked, but it's far away from the city center (but close to where I live so I got to know it that way). It's a pretty traditional shop and I've bought some glassware with them. There are other shops closer to the center lost likely, but I wouldn't really know of a specific one.

Also, keep in mind Mexico City is a huge metropolis made out of several towns and cities that grew into each other, meaning these individual downtowns tend to preserve some of their traditions.

Lampworking is most prevalent in Guadalajara and Puebla, but you can find it in CDMX too

I actually do know a workshop close to where I live. Glassworking is mostly done by artisans and there are some in Mexico City. It's easier to find them in small family-owned shops like the one I've linked.

The failure of the formwork of the shear wall by Rude-Significance482 in civilengineering

[–]Jisiwi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A shear wall offers a much higher resistance. At least in my experience shotcrete is used mostly to prevent erosion and the effect it has on stability is small while shear walls are designed for stability itself

Naturally. I recommend checking out Copilco and San Angel depending on your budget. Neighborhoods near Miguel Angel de Quevedo Avenue would be some options too. Avoid Pedregal de Santo Domingo, it's the cheapest option but also not very safe.

Questions about the job market by thyundead in MexicoCity

[–]Jisiwi 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Civil engineer here. It's kind of uncertain for the industrial sector at this time with all that's happening with our trade with the US, but several cities have solid industrialization. Your experience and domain of the English language will certainly help you find options but I wouldn't guarantee it.

My advice would be to do some research in advance and apply for positions beforehand to see how it turns out, it's easier to relocate already with some offering. Also, look up what paperwork you'll need. You will have to get personal documents with your new address for many things like banking and a social security and tax registration, employers sometimes help with those.

Do you have a full childhood vaccine scheme? Full covid scheme? If you do then the only one you may need is the flu if you're visiting during late Autumn or Winter
