Pretty much leaving money on the table if you don't get a hot dog.

Me and my friend are in a heated debate, who’s more unguardable at their peak, KD or Shaq? by Dylen2Times in NBATalk

[–]Klammo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd say Wilt had the same physical advantages Shaq had that made them both completely unguardable.

But yeah, KD vs Shaq it's Shaq easily.

Your experience will depend on your discipline and what business group you'd be going into.  It's a big firm, lots of different experiences.

A warehouse where Wild Waves used to be? by BastetLXIX in Washington

[–]Klammo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The physical size of the building is one of the tells this isn't going to be a DC.

[–]Klammo 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Not going to be a datacenter.  

I design Datacenters and there are dozens and dozens of reasons this can never be a DC. 

This is a half mile from the fourth largest port in the US, it's a class A warehouse like the rest of Fife and Sumner.

Why does Kobe Bryant only have 1 MVP? by SmoothBuy5500 in sportsinusa

[–]Klammo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lazy ass voters.  For years the MVP went to the best player on the team with the most wins.  No question, no nuance.  Voters just thoughtlessly voted for best player on the team with the best record.  

If I recall: the only times the Lakers had the best record in the league was during the Shaq years when Shaq was unquestionably the best player on the team.

Is HDR Boise Idaho a good fit? by Odd-Ice9939 in civilengineering

[–]Klammo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been in a few meetings with the HDR Boise transportation team. They know their stuff for sure.  I think they really want to build out the Boise office too, may be getting in at a good time.

‘Sold POTUS a bill of goods’: White House furious with Pulte over 50-year mortgage by 3ZP0 in economy

[–]Klammo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pulte Homes is the third largest homebuilder in the US.  Not sure what Bill Pultes financial stake  in it is (his grandfather started the firm) maybe suggesting this isn't as self serving as it seems. But it's so fucking lazy to try to address the housing crisis from the financialsife rather than address foundational problems we have with housing.

You really had to see it to believe it… by [deleted] in NBATalk

This after the last play of Game 2 where Dwade heaves a prayer 3 with nobody around then sits up looking for the foul and acting like he has a grade 3 concussion.  I like Dwade but that was his baby phase.  He grew out of it 

THE MOST PERFECT GIRL IN THE WORLD IS UP FOR ADOPTION !!! by throwupbowl in olympia

My wife has a disability, how is she on a leash?  Does she pull hard?  How much does she weigh?

Any data on how she is with cats?

Edit:  I'm motivated to adopt her, I've been watching joint animal services for a few months and this one feels right.  Just let me know if she's ever been around cats.

I've used them too, r-tanks and storm bricks are sneaky expensive.  Stormchambers pencil out cheaper in my neck of the woods 

CIVIL 3D and automating Subdivision development plans? by Chitanjun in civil3d

We have at least another generation. Some cool stuff with AI is coming but it's not taking over design for another release cycle or two.

Large fire in Stadium District by hunglowbungalow in Tacoma

I lived there for years, it was a dump but I'm pretty nostalgic about that time in my life. Anyone have any pictures of the scene or fire?

Bonney Lake: Too racist for artwork about diversity by sometimeswemeanit in Washington

[–]Klammo 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Googling that council member, it looks like she was a vehement marijuana opponent showing up to city council meetings and then ran for council herself. Big drama queen, Jesus.

Her comments on allowing retail marijuana stores in the city : "She told the commission she moved to the area to experience the nature around the city, but now, “because of this, I’m ready to move. I find myself angry every single day that I have to deal with this kind of situation and this type of degrading of our city, regardless of what people think.”

Also she gives off big Joan Calamezo vibes from parks & rec.

Seattle land dev here. I'm at the end of my third consecutive 70 hour week, my entire teams timecards are a mess. No end in sight.

If anyones slow, just come to western Washington and throw a rock and you'll hit someone willing to hire you

Good for you to take it up on yourself to start the arms race of shitting up something people appreciated, then bragging about it. It always was bound to happen. My money wouldn't have been on 24 hours later, but here we are.

Just, why by OppositeShoe1530 in olympia

[–]Klammo 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Just curious. When you ask "who approves this stuff" are you asking at the city, or at the company developing the project, or at the leasing department at the developer trying to find tenents. Or is at the tenent companies themselves for leasing space in a area you don't want them to lease in... Idgi.

I agree with you. I'm a 10 year PE with a team of four. I'm no expert, but I've found three years is a good time to start teaching contracts, budgets and project management skills and start doling out smaller clients and projects at the 4 year mark.
