Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 14/10/2026There is "moderation" here. She votes with him 96% of the time. She counts the votes first and then pretends to vote against him if there's cushion. Moderate does not mean you write lots of letters of concern. 040
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 14/10/2026By default, committee materials are held secret. Only when the committee votes to release details can they release it. 100
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 14/10/2026You may not record the meeting without ICC's permission. Even if permitted, you may not distribute it. 100
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 14/10/2026The agenda should be available 2 weeks ahead of time 100
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 14/10/2026You are supposed to receive notice of the meeting 4 weeks ahead of time. 100
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 14/10/2026WG2 active fire protection. 1. Had a discussion about fuel gas detection. One recommendation to process: 15-1 vote, the WG recommends that FCAC deletes appendix L from the fire code. This is the FARS. (!!!!!!!!!!!) 261
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 14/10/2026Ugly NIMBY sentiments rear their heads in Brookline. 030
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 14/10/2026This happened in Brookline. “Children in school? What’s in it for me?” 120
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 11/10/2026I’m on vacation but I can’t help but be constantly triggered. 030
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 07/10/2026When I first read this from the founder of Mistral I thought this was the European data center which summoned a lot of big emotions. But it’s just a photo of the train station for the town. Probably because the EU bans you from sharing pictures, which also summons a lot of big emotions for me. 010
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 02/10/2026I log onto the youtube and get kicked in the nuts immediately with this. 150
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 01/10/2026only one stair goes up to the second floor of this penthouse apartment. 010
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 01/10/2026He calls this a high rise but it's only 6 stories, so probably not > 75 ft. Claim every advantage you can, Mike! 110
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Pretty sure this chimney does not have proper fireblocking. 120
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Each floor in this building has an aquarium... I don't think this is addressed, so you win this one, Mike. 100
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 01/10/2026As far as I can tell, this boutique hotel only had elevators. Not even one set of stairs. The chutzpah, just cuz you won a Super Bowl, you think you can get away with this. 110
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Probably the only place with sufficient fire separation distance. 100
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 24/09/2026This is no longer true! New link and new schedule. teams.microsoft.com/meet/2189055... 100
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 23/09/2026This is what I imagine the beautiful buildings NIMBYs want and I hate it. 030
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Well actually! This is a statue of Augustus, who is Caesar’s adopted son. He did take the name of Caesar but he is commonly called Augustus to disambiguate him from Julius Caesar. So this place should be called “Augustus’s Palace.” 130
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Vegas is your capital city in a very tall game of Civ. 130
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Here is my favorite paragraph from the letters of intent. 000
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 21/09/2026I'll be watching the ICC Board of Directors candidate forum, which starts in about half an hour. The candidates can be found here: www.iccsafe.org/about/board-... 120
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 15/09/2026ok, ok, I concede: this disaster could have been averted had we gone through the proper permitting for this. 110
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 13/09/2026This movie has convinced me every room must have a window. My god what a relief it was to see these. 040
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 13/09/2026Single egress from this basement. Scariest part of this movie. 190
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 13/09/2026Watching Backrooms. The building department really failed here. 1101
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 13/09/2026Door knocking in Potrero Hill today for Theo Ellington. These were lovely. 150
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 11/09/2026Q: Can we do this for laptop or curling iron? A: Yes. Q: For retrofit, you'd have to cut a bigger box? A: Yes, but we have a retrofit kit that's easier. 110
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 11/09/2026Should another code be referenced in the definition? 110
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 11/09/2026We are now onto synchronizing the definition of "Smokeproof enclosure." While I was fantasizing about spas, I think they also came to agreement on a definition for "Slope" 110
Mo Zhu @moinmybackyard.bsky.social · 11/09/2026We are now onto debating the definition of "repair." The definition of repair in the pool and spa code specifies poor or spa, but in order to synchronize it with everything else, they'd need to delete "pool or spa" with a generic "building." Is this load-bearing for the spa code? 110
