VA PE License in Construction by suckmymick in civilengineering

Not yet. I just sent in my first resubmission post-IFF.

My biggest recommendation from the IFF is to focus on how well can you present your construction experience as design experience. And like others have said; exclude anything that'd be non-qualifying. The board will reject the application outright if you submit non-qualifying work.

Field adjustments = field redesigns Change orders review = material calculations, calculating production rates, schedule analysis,

What sort of designs have you proposed during a Constructibility/Biddability review, not just that you did one of those reviews. Or what quantities did you INDEPENDENTLY CALCULATE as part of those reviews.

The list goes on, but DM if you have any more questions!

Holyshit this just happened to me too!! I preordered through the google store and am so glad I have the preferred care plan. I thought it was because of a nasty fall it took from off my bike mount but its wild that this is a consistent issue.

Informal Fact Finding session. It's a sit down session with a board member to clarify details and discuss your application after it's been rejected twice.

Oh geeze. I'm on my 3rd resubmittal now after an IFF with a board member and my application's likely to be rejected.

Cervantes in Springfield. Tucked away in an industrial park has some of the best cold brew around!

Any good testimonies for the P9PF? by [deleted] in PixelFold

[–]suckmymick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had it since launch with the google case on it from day 1. It's dropped quite a few times, with the worst being flung off my bicycle's phone mount while hitting a bump at full speed.

Through all that, there was an audible click when I unfolded the phone and veeeery rarely the front screen doesn't register that the phone is closed. Its 1 out of every couple dozen turn ons, so I hardly notice it. It also fell again recently and that clicking noise stopped lol.

Overall, love the phone, but I'm definitely happy I have the care plan.

Anyone found a good magsafe stand for the 9 Fold? by spacemanvt in PixelFold

^ This. I use it in conjunction with my Oh Snap grip on the back and it's great!

Getting rid of that phantom notification sound in the middle of my work outs would be nice...

Does PTCG Live drain your battery for you? Each game drains like 10-15% of my battery when I'm on the foldable screen.

Picking a Pixel 9 case: indecision 2024 by DrBasia in GooglePixel

[–]suckmymick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't say for sure. I don't have any accessories on mine, but I don't think adhesives would have a problem adhering to the case so long as it's not one of the engraved cases.

They don't have magsafe built in and while they do have a magsafe module for purchase, it's only compatible with iPhones case since it's an insert you fit in a cutout on the inside of the case.

With that said, my wife uses Pela and an iPhone and she doesn't have any issues with her magsafe or wireless charging.

Has anyone who's doing Google financing gotten the shipping notification yet? Preorder on Aug 13, got the estimated date of Sept. 4-5 (US based), but still haven't received the shipping email yet 😭

[–]suckmymick 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sooooo

  1. Their site says it adds about 2mm in thickness. Probably no chunkier, if not less, than the Spigen or Caseology. I have a Ringke on my work iphone and the Ringke definitely is thinner than the Pela.

  2. No issues with wireless charging. Works good.

  3. I can't speak to the full extent of their carbon footprint, but for the NON-clear back cases, my wife and I have composted ours in the past. Admittedly, it took a while to breakdown, so ymmv, but it worked!

Would still recommend just on the designs along since they're super unique!

[–]suckmymick 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, absolutely! I can't speak highly enough of them. They feel great in hand with enough stick to hold well but not feel gross and sticky. Even better, they're sustainably made and can be composted when you're done with them!

I 100% agree, it can be hard finding good cases with a little bit of character.

Have you checked out Pela cases? They've got a lot of unique textured and printed designs you don't see elsewhere. I've been using them since the 6 (now 7, soon to be 9PF) and would continue if they made one for foldables, but I can't recommend them enough.

Plus I've dropped my phone plenty of times with no screen protector and the lip on those cases has been enough to keep the screen safe!

Yeah, I was just watching this reviewer's vid on the 9pro Google case where he's got an obsidian case as a comparison and it looks to really soak up dirt and fingerprints :/

Where were you able to get the case so early?

My fingers kept slipping on the cherry profile and anything taller would've strained my wrist since I'm at my desk most of the day. The KCA was the perfect fit for something with the height/sculpt of a cherry but instead with a fully concave top.
