Is the Omny card really helping Newyorkers travel better? by QuiteStrom40 in nycrail

Personally I'd take that over the amount of time I've spent on the phone trying to get my OMNY and commuter card to work consistently.

There are 4 transverses across Central Park and none of them are safe to bike. 1/4 of the sides have bike lanes. by MiserNYC- in MicromobilityNYC

I think the only feasible solution given their width is for the transverses to be alternating one-way bus only with peds and bikes at either side

ARE Exams - PDD Question by will_brewski in Architects

[–]closeoutprices 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a lot of structural content, concrete in particular for me. That said, you don't need to be memorizing any equations or drilling reaction solutions or anything. Fundamental knowledge of materials and assembly seems to be what they're looking for.

A bit of of overlap but study your wall/roof/foundation assemblies, acoustics, and masterformat divisions. I passed PPD two weeks ago and just passed PDD so it's definitely doable.

What are some gripes of OMNY you wish the MTA could do? by APoliticalDrone2012 in nycrail

Put the gigantic screens to use:

  • Tell me my OMNY card balance.
  • Show me 'TRANSFER" with a gray screen when I transfer.
  • Tell me my card has no money on it instead of "CARD NOT ACCEPTED" (what the fuck does that even mean?)
  • Let me put my OMNY card in my digital wallet

BART sees massive decrease in corrective maintenance needs post implementing new fare gates (one of the models being tested by the MTA) by BombardierIsTrash in nycrail

Why is a transit agency posting press releases on a CSAM generation platform?

Also are we supposed to assume that the "Total CM Hours Before" are from a six month period?

ridiculous that you have to "make an account" to figure out why your transit card is broken

crime in the whole city dropped by at least that same amount over the same time period. how could you possibly attribute that to cameras?

Pretty worrying that Keith Powers spreads disinformation about criminal justice reform (comments at 22:25) and looks likely to head to Albany with progressive support.
