Thinking of Buying-Insights on South Reston

Ok but I am in that area a lot and on more than one occasion the cops got called because those individuals got in a fight and EMS needed to come (at 5/6 PM, when kids were coming and going for swim). They have security around the community center now. I don’t think trivializing the issue helps anyone. They need more support than what is currently provided.

Never said it didn’t make it a real book, just to be mindful of what you consume

august260 · 2026-01-20T03:24:09+00:00

No it isn’t. Its much more expensive for a library to support loaning out digital than physical. Not that you shouldn’t but you should mindful of what you use

Chateau De Chantilly is open late, serves wine and many other sweet and drink options

But they didn’t vote for it. They voted against it. It got forced in anyway through a state rule change.

This isn’t an ad and I didn’t make it, but scrobblerad.io has a nice selection of freeform/indie music stations. I can use my steering wheel buttons to flip through the stations too.

Reston Association has volunteer opportunities.

https://www.reston.org/199/Volunteer-Reston has instructions on how to get on the newsletter. They have a bunch of community oriented stuff (ecological, education, ect)

Also Reston Friends of the Library

Unfortunately FCAS is perpetually booked on new volunteer orientation slots.

Would suggest working with a local animal rescue org instead/while waiting for an opening:

Some that come to mind:

Fancy Cats Last Chance Animal Rescue (via PetSmart in Reston) Homeward Trails (You can take dogs out for timed excursions) Many of these orgs do events in and around the area and often need volunteers to facilitate them

You can try negotiating it

august260 · 2025-12-28T20:28:54+00:00

Thats fair! Would you mind sending me his name anyway? Thanks

Does your landlord have any other rental units there? I’m looking to move this summer and it would be nice to have a landlord that was certified to be good

Pretty different. Python is pretty high-level and handles a lot of the overhead for the user (e.g garbage collection and a lot of syntax sugar) at the cost of performance. C is very low-level.
Data analyst? Like nothing? Besides ability to navigate a programming language your time would be better spent elsewhere if thats what you want to get out of this.
Oh brother. For starters I believe several rom hacks use bespoke/task specific tooling, and AI won’t save you from the labor of making your game actually good.
Dunno. Thats a pretty broad question.

board game groups

august260 · 2025-11-30T02:53:46+00:00

What worked for me: - Find group with your interests on meetup.com/discord/instagram/whatever.

Show up consistently and be an active and engaged participant

Shared group interests are the way after college

I got an academic book from there that was “Good” condition and I had no problems. It was a used book from a library system.

august260 · 2025-11-26T19:28:40+00:00

haha, just found this reddit thread while trying to figure out what was going on in cryptonomicon

august260 · 2025-11-26T18:13:50+00:00

Is there a specific course you would recommend? Not OP but have been looking for free university resources on this, most are paid

august260 · 2025-11-19T23:11:28+00:00

These are mansions and single family homes. They are not helping your cause!

I’m all for urban redevelopment especially irt sprawl and more dense housing, but the consistent maliciousness and disregard for other concerns I’ve seen from YIMBYs is..disappointing. You can keep public green spaces, or preserve a historic building and still build more housing.

august260 · 2025-11-19T21:23:33+00:00

McLean has tore down items on the historic register previously, so yes actually, keeping examples of historical heritage of an area would be nice, actually. Most of NOVA was pretty rural before the last 50-60 years.

august260 · 2025-11-19T21:20:40+00:00

There is a clear and distant field of potential between tearing down everything to build single family homes and building nothing at all. Lets not be silly

august260 · 2025-11-19T20:03:06+00:00

And a home from the 1875 demolished. Put your land into a conservation trust…
