willythemailboy 02/22/24 7:42:57 PM #9 | There is also tons of township/city funds missing, to the point where some of their police cars are at risk of being repossessed. The council approved the funds, but somewhere between there and the bank the funds simply disappeared. Another issue is her police "security detail" resulting in absurd amounts of overtime being paid. Basically police getting OT hours at a rate that could not be humanly possible.

Is the solution then to tear down a bunch of office buildings and build apartments in their place?Sure, if you don't mind 5-10 years before any housing is available. Unknown5uspect posted... Considering the scope of retrofit would more or less necessitate this, yeah. But what would actually happen in that scenario is the construction of million dollar condos that won't house the people that need housing.If there wasn't a demand, people wouldn't be building them. About the only way to get 100% affordable housing built would be to have the local equivalents to the NYC Housing Authority build the housing itself. The problem with that is the NYCHA is notorious as being the worst slumlord in the city and takes on average 8 months to turn over an apartment from one person moving out to the next moving in. --- There are four lights. |

Might help but wouldn't really solve the supposes issueThe amount of office space that can practically and legally be turned into housing is trivial compared to the problem. The few buildings that can be converted take years of extensive reconstruction to convert. The biggest problem is daylight. Every building code in the country requires bedrooms to have at least one window for natural light and many require the same for other parts of the apartment. To use the Empire State Building as an example and a generous 40 feet as the practical depth of an apartment, only a bit less than half of the floor space along the outside walls could be used for housing. That's why buildings designed for residential use are narrower than commercial office space: they simply need a larger surface to volume ratio. --- There are four lights. |

I've tried unchopped chips before and they don't melt properly. They have too low a ratio of surface area to mass. You can leave it all day and you'll still have a chocolate sludge at the bottom because the milk cools faster than the chocolate can melt. Supposing this is some sort of porous chocolate that avoids the issue, they may be worth trying.You can buy pre-shredded chocolate, or even mini chocolate chips. --- There are four lights. |
