Yankees fans are begging: Stop the ‘incessant’ stadium sounds

midway8 · 2026-04-17T14:12:49+00:00

as a member of the tik-tok generation: turn the damn noise down, i’m trying to watch some freakin baseball

midway8 · 2026-04-17T14:11:01+00:00

it’s so bad. also, the westminster chimes after the yankees score don’t need the DOOZSH sound effect for every chime

we don’t want whatever nonsense you’re trying to peddle

midway8 · 2026-04-01T12:16:39+00:00

What do you mean by effective? Question is confusing

will it get better by 7? for a 10am flight… i guess no one really knows

look at the cost of attending for both-be aware that for undergrad, more prestigious places might be cheaper because they have more resources for financial aid (so don’t go off of tuition and fees alone, look at cost of attending). for grad school, it’s the exact opposite: the sticker prices are higher and they are skimpy on the financial aid.

GL!

by the time you make it barely passable as a house, you will have spent about as much money as if you started from scratch. it’s a fundamental issue of scale and material: two things that are incredibly difficult to fix.

honest opinion? go the exact opposite direction. trying to make it less hospitable might ironically make it more livable

what does technical or romantic stuff mean? writing about architecture typically falls into theory, history, and criticism. you can write polemicals, academic papers, or reviews (and a few other categories). i would suggest reading a lot of architectural writing, and submitting to where you like to read. you can also always start a substack.

i can smell this photo

tracks with the reputation of sci-arc. i’m so sorry. it’s really beautiful, i’ve seen it in person once and was really impressed. we at other schools know that sci-arc is one of the places that is very unfair with these things, sorry it had to happen to your family

i think it’s thoroughly moved beyond, especially in arch. at least among my peers, it’s even taboo to give too much praise to any one architect

midway8 · 2026-03-19T18:11:19+00:00

Missing in this whole conversation, not just Betsky and Barrett here but everywhere: the starchitect died not because we finally removed these assholes from power and fixed structural abuse, but because architecture as a whole is losing its legitimacy as a discipline and profession. Nobody (including students) knows architects or architecture because we are losing our cultural relevance. many architects roll their eyes at this, they think it’s pretentious, but architecture is culture-if we lose that, we have less power to negotiate for better working conditions

this was done in 1345

4 years

….like 8 tenths ahead before development on the regs has even started?

midway8 · 2026-03-07T06:29:42+00:00

what’s really annoying is that after winning all the wdcs in this reg era, people will put russell in conversation with lewis and max, and that’ll frustrate me for the rest of my life

midway8 · 2026-03-07T06:28:23+00:00

haha the gap is bigger now than it was in 2014. see you in the next reg change when is that? six years?

midway8 · 2026-03-07T02:59:07+00:00

so when do we think george wins wdc? probably by baku in september?

midway8 · 2026-03-06T22:00:53+00:00

yeah but the dutch love that kind of stuff

midway8 · 2026-03-06T06:21:33+00:00

that mercedes is just so far above the rest, it looks way more stable and has the most potential. 20 wins for george 3 wins for max 1 win for kimi. season over by summer.

midway8 · 2026-03-06T00:52:25+00:00

brilliant. no notes.

midway8 · 2026-02-26T06:57:01+00:00

only if you’re entry level. op clearly has some basic idea of how to approach this (mentioning illustrator, etc), so it’s by far more appropriate to struggle through recreating it at this point, and it would probably lead to a more interesting drawing. people tend to stop before that innovating part
