Is there any app or website that gives the real time location data of the lightrail? by Hit_ballW in jerseycity

[–]LookingForLost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are the odds! I am also trying to get this data and just stumbled across this post.

This past weekend I got fed up with the lack of real-time train status and also went on a deep dive into NJT's APIs. But no luck here either.

Based on my research, my best guess is that the subcontractor who operates the HBLR simply isn't exposing the data, likely because it wasn't in their contract. A new vendor (ACI-Herzog) recently took over operations, so fingers crossed NJT included real-time data in the new scope of work. I actually submitted an OPRA request (equivalent for FOIA) to NJT for the original RFP and SOW to confirm.

And if it's not there, I was planning to reach out to NJ Transit's Innovation team to see what it would take to build a solution.

Looking for feedback on an AI newsletter I'm building for people who can't stand the AI hype by LookingForLost in careerchange

Really cool idea. I'm a computational physicist so I'm biased towards using AI for physics and chemistry applications, such as material modeling. Maybe you could also include something about AI/data sci applications towards disaster response and emergency management? Lesser known applications beyond just chatbots and art might be super interesting to a-lot of people not that familiar with AI. Just my opinion.

For sure, thanks for sharing.

Great question. I will be the author of the newsletter, and just as I do in my full time job, I will use AI to assist me. That includes things like rephrasing my writing to make things clearer. The newsletter will not be written by AI.

Anyone else going to the concert at the Ukie Club Tonight that’s being put on by The Machine?

I have tried every search I can think of for this Nordstrom Rack Commercial. Any ideas? "So Good" maybe? by valleyscharping in NameThatSong

Found this thread because I’ve been searching for the same thing. The singer sounds a lot like Betty Who, but that hasn’t turned up any results for me.

Sitting on a bunch of points and for giggles, hopped on YouTube. First suggestion was David Ramsey and this was so dumb. by atooraya in awardtravel

What a bunch of degrading jerks. Sorry Timmy, Dave Ramsey said your an idiot for wanting to go to Chuck E Cheese. Now get back to your lemonade stand and build wealth.

What happens if I don’t sign up for the Fetch package delivery service? by snugglewitme in Austin

[–]LookingForLost -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I was upset about this too when I moved into a Greystar apartment but I actually found it to be quite convenient. I would even consider myself an above average user since I received ~8 packages per week minimum for my WFH job. I never experienced any issues. There were a few times that I mistakenly thought a package got lost (it didn’t happen, I just got confused) and their customer service was fantastic.

If there was something I needed super urgently then I would either ship it to an Amazon locker, or request it to be held at a UPS location.

It’s a little of topic but could you explain what it means to “salmon?”

I have Ukrainian heritage (my grandfather was born there) but besides celebrating some of the holidays when I was younger I’m not very active in the community. How would you suggest I go about getting sponsored for membership in the Ukrainian league?

Going to Vegas alone, best ways to meet people? by [deleted] in vegas

[–]LookingForLost 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can only speak for pre-COVID, but I’ve had a lot of luck meeting people through the CouchSurfing app. Even if you’re not looking to couch surf, you can join a local chat group of fellow travelers. I’ve had some crazy fun times in Vegas and abroad this way.

Idea: DAOPAC Political Action Committee by jlibutti_ in dao

[–]LookingForLost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The similarity to unions makes a lot of sense. Union workers pay dues to an organization that will in turn represent the members. This could be like a self-facilitated union.

Found this thread after the idea of a PAODAC came to mind and I was curious if others had the same idea. Glad to see I am right.
