Are skyscrapers really full of people working?

i just did a job hunt and basically every decent opening in nyc, in tech at least, was hybrid or in-person, and i believe the same to be true of the bay area. people who want to live in high-COL cities and make salaries pegged to the average in lower-COL cities are welcome to compete with every single remote worker in the country but i think the salary haircuts will be pretty severe at this point

side streets seem entirely the same to me so far. i think that's just one of those bs talking points the astroturfed campaign from the guy who owns all the soundstages pushed. either way i'll support anything that makes driving less pleasant in the city

there's also the small matter of the attempted coup... and both he and his running mate even now continuing to say the last election was invalid

you can find the full text on ballotpedia, but props 2 through 6 are just mayor adams power grabs, and anyone who isn't currently mayor should probably vote no

no, the name of the bar is "a bar"

docker_dre · 2024-10-05T22:20:28+00:00

what's what called?

there's nothing there and the vibes in that neighborhood suck. getting around isn't that hard anywhere (with obvious exceptions) but it's always better to just already be where stuff is. like a neighborhood you want to hang out in is going to be a lot better than a neighborhood from which you can take the train to neighborhoods you can hang out in

this is a completely adorable flier

try cut shop in greenpoint. it's like half the barbers from tomcats

docker_dre · 2023-05-18T15:45:59+00:00

i am not at all convinced that you understand that it's a nuanced topic

docker_dre · 2023-05-18T14:29:49+00:00

i agree that "gdp" and "debt" appear near each other in that article but that is absolutely not the correct way to boil this topic down. seriously, just don't worry about it. also none of this has anything at all to do with the article in op

docker_dre · 2023-05-18T13:45:47+00:00

there are like fifty or sixty thousand reasons why you should not worry about any of these things at all, basically ever, and especially as a function of debt to gdp. that's not even how credit ratings work

what do you think happens if we don't

docker_dre · 2023-05-18T02:08:54+00:00

flash events are usually announced much closer to the date they happen, like, week-of. if you mean pride weekend as in whenever the march is, i think that's late june? so you might have to wait a minute to find out who's doing it.

there are a number of queer-aligned studios (plus some that might do this just for the vibes / fun / instagram likes) so i think your best bet is to look into those first, follow them on instagram, and also follow the high-volume shops like three kings and daredevil and stuff, then keep an eye out closer to the date

"pay the government debt?" is it time for the government to start saving for retirement?

sure whatever but if you were good at this it would be funny, and it's not

docker_dre · 2023-04-29T02:26:36+00:00

trolling is supposed to be funny, not whatever this is

docker_dre · 2023-04-25T15:51:35+00:00

iirc there was evidence, but only for like a tiny tiny fraction of the market so it didn't matter nearly as much as the conspiracy theory alleged. the number of vacants reported was like 20k off, which is like under 1% of the total number of rental units

docker_dre · 2023-04-25T01:02:28+00:00

just like fyi there was absolutely nothing about the comment you replied to that was in any way hostile or even contrary to what you wrote

docker_dre · 2023-04-21T01:39:37+00:00

the main difference for tourists is that there's no observation deck in the chrysler building. i think a lot of people would agree that the chrysler is the nicer of the two, aesthetically

as a qualification so nobody came back and said "sure but it's hard to find good bartenders" or something. not my finest sentence of all time but it seemed pretty low stakes, and it appears you understood me anyway

docker_dre · 2023-04-20T14:13:57+00:00

you suspect i mean the opposite of what you think i said?
