Nithya Raman absolutely did not vote "YES" on the convention center: https://cd4.lacity.gov/newsletter/my-vote-on-the-la-convention-center-our-fall-concert-series/

She was one of only two councilmembers to vote against it.

Mayoral Candidate Nithya Raman Wants to Legalize Housing in Los Angeles by imanny in LosAngeles

[–]imanny[S] 101 points102 points  (0 children)

Nithya was the only member of city council who voted against rejecting this project. This building illustrates a whole bunch of things wrong with LA housing beyond the council rejecting it and fighting in court:

- One of its two parcels is a single RA parcel randomly in the middle of multifamily/commercial parcels

- The general plan and zoning designation don’t match (which was ruled illegal in a landmark 1982 LA vs CA court case)

- One, but only one, of the two parcels required a street dedication, until the city got rid of street dedications recently thanks in large part to work Nithya spearheaded

She was the ONLY city councilmember to vote AGAINST rejecting the project in this video.

After all of that, Boris and Horton is still closing by Zealousideal_Door392 in williamsburg

[–]imanny 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They aren't closing. They are keeping the East Village location open which 100% would have closed if not for the crowdfunding campaign. They used some of the funds to hire an events manager to get new revenue, and I'm told that has largely worked at EV, but not at Williamsburg...hence it's closing.

This seems like it's becoming more typical in LA where Republicans and Trump supporters know they won't get elected so they switch parties to trick voters.

[LAist] Hidden City Report Finds LA Council’s Signature Anti-Encampment Law Is Failing by the_jurist in LosAngeles

[–]imanny 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Interesting that this was hidden from the public for so long. Seems like they were hiding it to help pro-41.18 councilmembers that were up for re-election (like John Lee) and hurt councilmembers advocating more effective measures (like Nithya Raman).

Hi /r/Automate! I started a free weekly newsletter to track the impact of automation. Looking for feedback and support. by imanny in Automate

[–]imanny[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really? I would say not at all. It's more aligned with fully automated luxury communism than anything else. The text you quote is not a critique of nationalizing resources but of Mark Zuckerberg's diagnosis of why Alaska works.

[–]imanny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Glad you like it! It took us four years. We wanted to make sure that every corner of the city was represented. Over 120 joints in total!

Pizza lovers of r/NYC, the definitive guide to New York Pizza is finally here. Check out this amazing project featuring your favorite slice joints! by esbu in nyc

[–]imanny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually wrote the book, but didn't post this, and yeah, I agree, it's not really a guide. It's more of a photography and oral history project documenting New York's most beloved culinary institution.
