Austin @austonianb.bsky.social · 08/08/2026I stopped by. The cable belongs to RCN/Astound and there is a mid-span clamp to allow their cable to go to Beckwith Circle. I don’t see evidence of an attachment on the pole the opposite side of Beacon. Nonetheless, the sitch should be reported to Astound as possibly damaged or dangling guy wire. 000
Austin @austonianb.bsky.social · 07/08/2026I’ll swing by tomorrow, but your second photo implies that the strand continues to a telephone enclosure (the black lump on the wire). It could be that this support strand pulled off its attachment point on a pole, or it was mis-installed, and ended up flopping where it shouldn’t be. Curious! 110
Austin @austonianb.bsky.social · 08/07/2026I like your approach and, after reading Clerk Wells letter, I grok your reference. I think the most applicable cite is Code of Ordinances, Part 1 (Charter), Division 2, Article IV, because the Charter itself does not have a Division 2. But I am no Clerk! 110
Austin @austonianb.bsky.social · 08/07/2026I went to EnCode, too, but when I navigated through the divisions they didn’t line up with what I had seen in the Acts. Now I see that the esteemed Clerk Wells in the Letter of Introduction explains why there is a difference! The Appendix, which is Division 2, clears up the reference hell in Acts! 000
Austin @austonianb.bsky.social · 08/07/2026Another reasonable cite is City Charter, Article 9, Section 9-6(b). This section, annoying, then has somewhat piece-part retentions of prior Acts (from 1928, 2012, and 2018). Some of those also refer to amended texts and make me crave diffs. 100
Austin @austonianb.bsky.social · 08/07/2026This table appears to have out of date references. The Board of Election Commissioners are via Acts of 2025 Chapter 31 Section 9-6(b) now. The table cites our old charter, which was replaced with the new charter by voters Nov 4, 2025. 200
Austin @austonianb.bsky.social · 17/05/2026Public records request or something that’s already published via public database? 000

Austin @austonianb.bsky.social · 25/01/2026The whole thread is great advice (thank you for the reminder to stretch) but this one really hits home. Chatted with a neighbor over shoveling maybe a month and a bit ago and strong connections were made out of it! 000
Austin @austonianb.bsky.social · 28/11/2025Also, this is a damn clue about a key plot point, too, right?! 000
Austin @austonianb.bsky.social · 23/11/2025Oh, there are some deep seated memories coming back now, wow! 110
Austin @austonianb.bsky.social · 16/11/2025This resonates… but I mentally rewrite “how it was when they were growing up” into a long description of how they were /children/ at that time and therefore are recalling a time that is idealized, essentialized, and somewhat fictional. 110
Austin @austonianb.bsky.social · 03/11/2025You got this! I did the same thing when I was a warden and I felt much better for that work. We’ve talked about checklists in Elections; they’re powerful, that’s for sure! 110
Austin @austonianb.bsky.social · 31/10/2025Banh mi recommendations? Also, the fine print every year is exhausting. It’s like the worst of contract law, where you can’t even read the whole contract but have to refer to a third party baloney website that doesn’t use the same names… 110
Austin @austonianb.bsky.social · 17/10/2025Chuck entertained and bluntly emoted through a whirlwind rant just after Jeremiah’s carefully tailored best-practices discussion. What a blast! 100

Austin @austonianb.bsky.social · 24/08/2025Free of graduate school obligations, I've tried to write more. Over the summer, I captured tiny little review/reflections on the ten books I committed to read.

Austin @austonianb.bsky.social · 30/06/2025Looks like a beautiful beast! What were your buying criteria that put you in this one? 100
Austin @austonianb.bsky.social · 24/06/2025When is the best time to water our local street trees? This season has been so tough on them! 110
Austin @austonianb.bsky.social · 19/04/2025Thank you for the invitation. Beautiful views, awesome OTTO Pizza (fave Maine based pizza chain), and great company. And Nikunj’s talk prompted more thought than I expected due to an upcoming project where chaos engineering could be part of acceptance testing! 010
Austin @austonianb.bsky.social · 26/12/2023Any particular Golang resources that have resonated with you? 200
Austin @austonianb.bsky.social · 26/12/2023Beautiful! Love the care shown in the herbal(?) inlay. 010
Austin @austonianb.bsky.social · 24/12/2023It’s a day to celebrate our two cats, who are safe at home while we travel. These brothers have made the past year even better. 040
Austin @austonianb.bsky.social · 26/11/2023Thanks for the heads up on the upcoming CAPM meeting where this will be discussed. The members of that committee should press to have the study published as part of the supporting materials of the Agenda item. 120
