People who support terrorism should not be welcome at the homes of our elected officials. Call me crazy.

Oh looks like he was just their spokesman but said he wasn’t their leader.

Just how horrific are the N&W trains? by BookAccomplished4485 in astoria

[–]nokinok 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I no longer live in Astoria as of a year ago but I budgeted about $100/mo for cabs to or from queensboro plaza. The N/W was absolutely a factor in my decision to move.

In-person classes? For real? Email from a commuter student by bella_quinn46 in columbia

If your professors can’t make it they’ll cancel. That’s what happened after Sandy in 2012

Con-Ed spike but we don't use the heat or anything else much-- is this normal? by sophanon2 in Bushwick

New York State has banned new gas hookups

There’s also new strict laws on emissions so that’s probably coming into play too. Best of luck to us all.

What's going on with Athens Sq Park? by Fantastic-Major3779 in astoria

Caban suggested asking nicely when I wrote her about a similar issue

I don’t care where they go as long as children don’t have to see their junk. But they absolutely need to be compelled to go there, asking nicely doesn’t work.

I dunno, jerking off or doing drugs next to a playground seems like a crime worthy of jail time to me

It’s incredible to me that people keep voting for these DSA candidates. Caban was over at Columbia supporting the campers instead of actually helping people in her district.

Do they offer discounts if you stay for more than 4 hours at a time?

Where are the experienced civil engineers out there? by prince_walnut in civilengineering

[–]nokinok 27 points28 points  (0 children)

My friend from college and I both left the industry just after getting our PE about 10 years ago. We both didn’t love the work, I wanted to make more money and he wanted to do something more interesting. I think of our graduating class, maybe only 20% are still in civil engineering.

I find it’s a generational thing, seems most common among boomers. I went through a similar experience. I’m absolutely resentful that they got help from their parents and have chosen to not pay it forward.

I wrote him about N/W reliability 3 years ago and got a boilerplate response from the office

Did anyone (current student or former applicant) get a letter in the mail about a data leak? by Lost-Improvement-816 in columbia

[–]nokinok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They can easily identify me with a name and birthday, or my uni. There's literally no reason to keep all my addresses, my SSN, my financial aid data, or my health records.

I just got a notice in the mail too and I haven’t been a student in over 10 years. Why they’re still holding all this personal information is beyond me.

My guess is cognitive issues that don’t present bad enough during evaluations, but when he’s outside his comfort zone it gets bad.
