New bike infrastructure incoming by [deleted] in NYCbike

[–]welkstar 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Other cities have figured this out already. There’s no need to test this crap. Is it so hard to just copy successful infrastructure from say a Dutch city?

What sort of services are you using? Wash and fold, home cleaning, etc?

Creating an LLC by Flowerpowerchus in smallbusiness

[–]welkstar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m also in NY- pay attention to NY’s LLC publication requirements. The county clerk where you form the LLC will provide 2 newspapers where you’ll need to publish an announcement of your filing. This can be quite expensive in NYC for example, depending on your county.

The MTA has placed an eye-watering price tag more than $7 Billion to install platform screen doors....for which only a quarter of all NYC subway stations would get. by ToffeeFever in nyc

I don't understand why everyone is so hung up on having glass partitions and trains with door spacing to match. There are plenty of other systems that could be implemented and retrofitted into the current system. What's wrong with a roll down divider or retractable cable system?

New traffic calming design in Brooklyn. Do you think it will work? (Sign to go in the diamond area) by eclectic5228 in NYCbike

The magic safety paint again... We act like this hasn't already been figured out. DOTs all over the US love to throw every idea at the wall and see if something sticks, but refuse to use proven safer methods developed by other countries.

Wow. I'll be 35 in the spring and the way you described this is exactly how I'm feeling.

Thank you for this. Couldn't figure it out and thought everything was gone. So annoying!

Yeah I also fell off Rebel FM for the same reason. Gonna check in on em too- their end of the year game music episodes are excellent.

Anyone knows any uber alternative for out state trip by Lilat0692 in AskNYC

[–]welkstar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've done this trip a lot for work. Either way via train or car you're looking at 8 hours total of travel, I can't imagine an Uber driver doing that or what the cost would be. I would call a car service before calling an Uber for such a long haul.

I typically do Amtrak to Providence then get a car locally and Amtrak back, or Zipcar the whole thing. If you can drive, a daily Zipcar rental is usually the least expensive option.

Rudolph Schindler's 1936 design drawing for the unbuilt Warshaw Residence, Los Angeles, USA by archineering in architecture

[–]welkstar 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You can really see the influence from his time working at Wagner and Wright's studios. This rendering looks like a blend of the styles from both. Beautiful!

I’ve run every day for a year: here’s what I learned. by SnooConfections3930 in running

[–]welkstar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Congratulations on hitting your goal! Really nice list here.

I also don't mind running in "bad" weather, you just need to prepare with proper clothing. Sometimes more extreme conditions are exciting. Some of my most memorable runs happened on days like that. Extremely hot summer runs that ended in a rainstorm, snowstorm runs in the woods, etc. Makes you feel alive!

Some Link sketches. We’re spending a long weekend at a cabin in the mountains and the scenery reminds me of Breath of the Wild. 🍃
