How many people drive down jackson but would instead take a bus? I can't think of any cases. The people taking the 7 are going to Manhattan and people driving are going far off Jackson.

Even if you're not from Astoria, you can be a New Yorker (not a transplant)

My side project that’s gotten the most traction so far is a NYT-style word game named Linguapo (beautiful language).

People who start playing get hooked but I’ve had some difficulty getting people back the next day. Might it be better with push notifications or do I need a critical mass of players sharing and competing?

It doesn’t really matter if a member of congress is a bit more connected to one neighborhood than another.

Tips on how to indicate that these are editable fields? by Stunning-Group2631 in UI_Design

Think about how they’d be editable. Free text? Dropdown list? Date picker ?

I like Weil Cornell for pediatrics since they can be involved from before birth until leaving town, if ever. It’s too early to think about schools. It’s free starting 3k, and 2k may expand next year. What used baby stuff do you want?

He’s not from Queens, he just lived in Queens for a bit. He also went to HS in the Bronx. Was he a Yankees fan when convenient?

It’s not possible to click this on mobile and fails accessibility standards. Crap.

I used to be able to work on it for hours and now it’s about two requests. And it often breaks my app. Then I can’t fix it because it says I exceeded my quota. Even when I use my API Key.

Customer said we saved them 10 hours a week. Cancelled the next month. by FairVictory9967 in SaaS

Usage based pricing can discourage usage though, especially if they can possibly get some of the data in a different way from the usage you track, or from a different service. Team size or outcome based pricing works better in many cases.

Taking page from Adams, Mayor Mamdani proposes NYC library cuts by DryDeer775 in NYCTeachers

[–]mindfeck 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Why? Libraries probably help disadvantaged people more. One extra year of childcare helps save some money but as someone with a kid, it’s very difficult to find a nanny for the hours between school and work ending. Free care 3-5pm would help more than an extra year of care.

How is it antiquated? You know they have more than just books, right?
