As if you ever needed proof that architects hated children.

e: what a snipe sorry. Here's something, I took this video 14 years ago when I was working construction, cutting granite with a dull saw to make a facade for a multimillion dollar house nobody in my generation could ever afford, hating my life. I knew things would get better (and they did) and wanted something that my future self could look back on. I think probably also something to keep me motivated in school.


:siren: The sound is extremely loud and grating :siren: which I remember being part of what I wanted to capture. Open in a new tab after you turn your volume down.

Existing utilities/infrastructure can go a loooooong way toward pricing, depending on where it is.

But that listing is definitely insane. They probably paid top dollar to be on that river, and now they’re expecting someone else to do the same, in spite of the obvious issues it brought.

There was a place like this in the Santa Cruz, CA mountains. Property backed onto a river that was eroding the hill. Property was described as "a geoengineer's dream project"

Yeah, Juneau is VERY land scarce, and that particular lot's worth is probably 2/3rds of that asking price. There's basically nowhere left to build there.

BODMAS stands for B-Brackets, O-Orders (powers/exponents or roots), D-Division, M-Multiplication, A-Addition, S-Subtraction.

I was taught that as Brackets, Other, Division, blah blah.

I don't remember what "other" was, and I'm not sure I ever used it except for these dumbass puzzles because it never really came up as even exam writers weren't like "ha ha let's see you 11 year olds solve this!"

e: also past that level it was then like "no maths, only algebra!" for the next 10 years.

Just remembered the guy in military police training who insisted that SWAT was short for "secret weapons ääänd tactical". No I have no idea why he hell of emphasized the and but he did :shrug:

e: In case someone doesn't know/can't guess, it's special weapons. They don't have secret weapons.

There's a house at the bottom of my road that is not only at the bottom of a hill but was built lower than the road so there a sloping drive down to it. Also, the main drains on the street are clogged so in heavy rain it all drains down the road. Mostly it seems to go into the other houses at the bottom and flood their garages, even ours flooded once but that turned out to be because the PO had let the drainage gully fill up with gravel off the driveway :rolleyes:

Surely a condemned building has to be destroyed, and the fact that some of it remains is therefore undesirable.
