Those Economics/Architecture Videos I've Been Bingeing

But eating less bandwidth than the previous version of this post.

This post has 100 links, because that's how many tumblr lets me add before it refuses to save the post anymore. (Legacy editor allows up to 250, but then I would have the colors.)

A lot of these are about NYC, because that's my personal main focus, but there are a few others. Also, I have absolutely no training in this field and only started watching these a few days ago but Ya Girl Is Bingeing and Really Loves Edutainment. All the descriptions are my own, btw. I'm not looking to gain clicks or references, I want you guys to know what you're getting into.

I was not involved in creating any of these videos, but it did take me over a week to watch them all and decide which ones to include, how to organize, and how to describe the contents.

I cannot speak to a lot of the deeper issues touched on, and do not agree with all the political or economic points brought up in these videos (as this is a wide range of people and topics), but they are by and large a good look at much of an industry that most people, myself included, don't know enough about, considering how crucial it is to our lives.

I'm open to channel/video recs but there are a few I ran into that seem well-done but have an audio quality I can't work with, so that's... unfortunate.

Stewart Hicks - Chicago-based, professor of architecture at the University of Illinois

Why Skyscrapers Are Losing Their Tops - Stewart Hicks - The general history of architectural styles for skyscrapers from the 1930s to the near future.

Why Do Architects Insist on Using Flat Roofs? - Stewart Hicks - Compares and contrasts the strengths and weaknesses of flat vs gabled roofs.

How Buildings Changed After the Eiffel Tower - Stewart Hicks - Thirteen minutes of history on structural engineering in bridges and skyscrapers.

The Bewildering Architecture of Indoor Cities - Stewart Hicks - Goes into the planned and unplanned variants of this phenomenon, which ranges from giant buildings intended to act as an entire community, to the unplanned network of underground tunnels or overstreet enclosed walkways that let people cross blocks upon blocks of a city without having to step outside.

How This Tower Barely Touches the Ground - Stewart Hicks - Addresses the engineering behind 150 N. Riverside in Chicago, and the zoning laws that caused its rather unique Y-shaped base in the first place, along with the requirements causing things like custom giant I-beams and necessitating a barge to host the crane since they had nowhere to anchor one on the ground.

How Chicago is Being Unbuilt: Back to Nature - Stewart Hicks - Explores the ways in which Chicago is undoing prior urbanization, and implementing some new eco-friendly infrastructure and various projects.

Why We Should Live in Our Office Buildings - Stewart Hicks - More and more office buildings are standing empty. With movements towards more mixed zoning and the return to walkable city models, some of those office buildings are getting retrofitted to be livable spaces and mixed-use locations.

How Architects Design for Less Lonely Living - Stewart Hicks - In a lot of places, like the US, the way we interact or avoid other people is impacted heavily by the organization of the buildings we live in.

House Sizes Are Getting Absurd - Stewart Hicks - Just a fun romp comparing the range of sizes (from the bare minimum of capsule hotels to the absurd mass of some modern estates) for various dwellings. Lots of very deliberate visualization.

Shopping Malls are Getting Desperate - Stewart Hicks - Discusses the decline of shopping malls, and the 'tricks' they employ to try to keep people happy and coming by.

The Architecture of Curb Appeal - Stewart Hicks - There's a lot that goes into making a house look good in a way that gets it sold. A lot of people hate it.

The Controversy Over Accessory Dwelling Units - Stewart Hicks - In many places, it's illegal to build a smaller livable space in your backyard. You know, places you put an adult child who wants their own space, or your mother-in-law, or just rent out to college students for the next ten months. But, at least in a few places, it's not going to be illegal much longer.

Toilets Need to Change - Stewart Hicks - Plumbing is such an important part of our daily lives, and it's still evolving!

The Hidden Meaning and Logistics of Fountains - Stewart Hicks - This one is just fun. 😊

The Genius of 2x4 Framing - Stewart Hicks - So apparently the US is a bit odd in how much of our architectural/construction industry uses light wood framing as a standard.

The B1M - Hosted by Fred Mills (British), more generally about construction, rather than just architecture

Why a Billionaire Tried to Stop This Bridge - The B1M - There's a new bridge being built between Detroit, MI and Windsor, ON. This bridge is going to help with the ongoing trade between the US and Canada; these two cities are already a major hub for one of the largest trading partnerships in the world (the largest where one side is not the European Union), so building another bridge is a reasonable undertaking. However, the new bridge will be just a few miles down from an existing bridge that is currently owned by a billionaire who makes a killing over his control of a major portion of this bottleneck of the trade route. (Also, more engineering challenges!)

The Statue of Liberty: Building an Icon - The B1M - Someone actually asked me about this recently and anyway you should all go learn about how the Statue of Liberty happened, she's a gem.

Why New York’s Billionaires’ Row Is Half Empty - The B1M- The usage of NYC luxury housing as a semi-liquid asset used as investment by the megarich, along with the rights acquisitions that led to their building in the first place, the gentrification they contribute to, and the tax write-offs they get for it.

Why Our Cities Are So Expensive - The B1M - How infrastructure investment by governments can and does frequently lead to gentrification. Focuses on London's Battersea Power Station revitalization plan.

Why New York's Skyscrapers Keep Changing Shape - The B1M - This is actually an exploration of more than just New York, covering much of the same topics as the above 'history of skyscraper design' video, with a great focus on the Chrysler building.

Why No One Wants This New York Skyscraper - The B1M - Investigates the ways in which the development of Two World Trade Center has been delayed over the past decade and change, along with a handful of other projects in the area.

The Wild Story of New York’s Abandoned Skyscraper - The B1M - There's a half-finished skyscraper on the western shore of Manhattan, and due to the errors in laying the foundation, there's an 8cm tilt in it. The parties involved in construction are duking it out in court about who's at fault, and until they're done, that thing is just... sitting there.

New York's Latest $3BN Skyscraper Explained - The B1M - Another stupidly tall skyscraper for midtown. You know. Because we need another one.

The $7BN Plan to Save New York's Most Hated Train Station - The B1M - Explores the history, current state, and planned upgrades to Penn Station of NYC.

New York's Most Hated Highway is Falling Apart - The B1M - The issues hitting the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway, and the difficulties in repairing it.

The Secret Subway That Could Save New York - The B1M - Hey do you want to hear about how we might finally be getting that Queens-Brooklyn line that doesn't need to pass through Manhattan first?

The Tunnel That's Failing New York City - The B1M - The tunnel that handles a massive amount of the human traffic between NJ and NYC is starting to break down due to age. This one included a line that actually gave me feelings: "Look, it's a 110-year-old system, you know, it's done its job. Like, we really can't ask any more of it." It did its best! For a long time! Thank you!

The US Government Wants to Destroy These Towers - The B1M - The federal government just wants to demolish some Historic Skyscrapers in Chicago, no biggie.

The Secret $4BN Tunnel Network Under Chicago - The B1M - Since the 1970s, Chicago has been building an absolutely massive set of tunnels hundreds of feet under the surface to handle regular flooding from storms and the climate crisis.

The Fight to Fix the Tilting Millennium Tower - The B1M - There's this skyscraper in San Francisco that's leaning a few centimeters to the side, which doesn't sound like a lot, until you learn that just a few more will mean the plumbing and elevators stop working.

The £100BN Railway Dividing a Nation - The B1M - Goes over the political, economic, and environmental arguments and concerns behind the highspeed rail intended to connect London to the North of England.

Inside London's £19BN New Railway (and its Nightmare Station) - The B1M - Genuinely fascinated at the number of Train Problems that England seems to be having.

Why Europe Doesn't Build Skyscrapers - The B1M - Explains the historical and modern reasons that limit the addition of supertall buildings across most of Europe.

The Insane Scale of Europe's New Mega-Tunnel - The B1M - Explores the engineering and environmental challenges of the Fehmarntunnel, a passage from Germany to Denmark of terrifying size.

Why Europe is Building a 57KM Tunnel Through a Mountain - The B1M - No, a different one. This one is between Italy and France.

We Went Inside the Largest Nuclear Fusion Reactor - The B1M - It's in France, there are over 35 countries involved, and it's just a Lot.

Inside The Lab That Tests Elevator Free-Falls - The B1M - There's this active mine in Finland where they test elevators for safety and it's pretty cool.

China's Skyscraper Boom is Officially Over - The B1M - Just learned that China is outlawing most skyscrapers. There are a few cases where you can still maybe make one happen, if you can convince the government it's needed, but in most cases... nah. They're cutting you off.

The Unstoppable Growth of China's High-Speed Rail Network - The B1M - [insert gif screaming about trains here]

The Insane Engineering of Tokyo's First Supertall Skyscraper - The B1M - While the focus is ostensibly Main Tower, the video covers a lot of ground regarding earthquakes and the necessary engineering to resist the incredibly frequent occurrence. (Warning: Came out shortly after the Feb. 2023 Turkey-Syria earthquake, and contains references to the event, urging people contribute what they could to help. The video was already almost finished when the Turkey-Syria earthquake happened, and rather than delay it for fear of it being in bad taste, they decided to use it to encourage people to help the victims.)

The Hidden Crisis With Renewable Energy - Tomorrow's Build - Storage of energy from renewable sources that are not consistently available (e.g. solar is only available when the sun is out) is difficult, so here are a few options.

This Nuclear Plant is Built in 3 Months - Tomorrow's Build - Mail-order nuclear power is going to be a thing.

Greece is Turning its Olympic Ruins into a Casino - Tomorrow's Build - [good for them dot gif]

This Could Stop Construction Everywhere - Tomorrow's Build - So it turns out we're running out of sand. Which is important, because we need sand for concrete, and the easiest stuff to get (desert sand), doesn't work for that, which is why Dubai has to import sand for construction. So uh. Kind of a crisis. Sand pirates are a whole thing.

tell us about your lancer campaign!

I can always count on you friend

Long post ahead.

So the initial idea was a Long Rim band of mercenaries in outlaw space where my players would go through a very modular system of odd jobs to get money and progress through the mechs and stuff

That got immediately hijacked by a personal vendetta story after a flamboyant and eccentric pirate lord known as PEACOCK made them fail a mission and they steered the campaign into hunting that guy down. I was happy to oblige of course, and even put a bounty on him so they had extra reasons to go after him.

In order to get to him they had to find his deep space pirate fortress that was hidden somewhere. To get there they had to go after one his lackeys BACKBREAKER (im a big fan of titles/nicknames you see), who is this loud and agressive fuckhuge goliath of a man wearing corpse paint makeup like the dudes from kiss (and hes balding, which is important). They found backbreaker on an illegal mech fighting tournament ran by pirates in a mad max desert planet and promptly joined in order to kick his ass. After a few matches they were treated to a mix of rock concert and boss battle in which they fought backbreaker's four armed guitar wielding mech.

After the fight they found out backbreaker hates his boss and is super down for treason and they joined forces and became friends. They even stopped by a interplanetary shopping mall for some smoothies (and to steal an armored spaceship) on the way to the pirate fort.

After finding out where the fort is they rammed the ship into it at high speeds and proceeded to go find peacock. Who was in a god damn ship hangar retrofitted into a fashion show catwalk that played lady gaga instrumental music (which makes for GREAT boss music, i found out) and they fought peacock under strobe lights and glitter clouds.

Anyway during the fight they broke SOMETHING in the fort and it was about to blow up so they bailed as soon as peacock was dead. Unfortunately in the chaos backbreaker died in an explosion after saving one of the players by having HIS mech shoulder throw the player's mech out into space it was real sad.

That was act one! Last week we started act two which happens a few months later in the story.

The players got back together for another mission since they need cash again but this time they got intercepted by a corporate warship hailing them.

The ship was captained by the CLONE of one of my players. The player in question is this hotshot reckless ace pilot whos a giant commie and a runaway rebel and his primary color is red and the clone is this prim and proper corporate exec made by the player's father as his replacement (and his primary color is blue. Symbolism.) As it turns out: player's father is dying and needs a heir, clone wants to kill player to avoid any inheritance struggles.

So the clone shot down the party's flagship and now theyre stuck on an ice planet.

Excited to see what bullshit they'll pull next!

#i hope im a good dm i dont have a lot of experience i just really love mechs and lancer is cool #LancerRPG #Lancer RPG #Lancer TTRPG #Lancer

Piltover will Lose the War without Noxian help

My post dragging Jayce for his "Your people wouldn't stand a chance" comment got me thinking about Piltover's military capabilities, or lack thereof, and just how woefully unprepared for a war Piltover actually is, based on what we've seen in season 1. The enforcers are entirely light infantry, and there doesn't seem to be very many of them, especially after the time jump. In fact, a good percentage of enforcers are probably in purely bureaucratic or ceremonial positions, like the warden of Stillwater and the mall cops Jinx blew up on Progress Day. In other words, a lot of enforcers, probably most of them, are not battlefield material. I would say there's maybe a few hundred enforcers prepared for serious combat, at most. We see no heavy weaponry of any kind apart from the cannons on the promenade where Jayce and Silco met, and those appear to be relics from a past war that haven't seen use in decades and are probably not even functional anymore. We see no military vehicles of any kind like armed airships or even anything like an armored troop transport. There also doesn't seem to be any military culture or institutions in Piltover capable of training battlefield officers. When asked, Jayce doesn't even know if military history is taught at their academy.

Given that the only major violent incident close to the North Side in recent memory (probably for several decades if not more) was a massacre of unarmed protestors, it makes sense that complacency (not to mention corruption) would have degraded Piltover's armed forces to the sorry state that it appears to be in now. Sure, in theory they can weaponize Hextech, but right now they only have three personal use devices that can be retrofitted as weapons and one of those was nearly destroyed by something Sevika improvised. Chemtech may not be as powerful overall as Hextech, but Zaunites have had a 7 year head-start, at least, in weaponizing it.

Even if the enforcers decide to fight with small tactical strike teams rather than a large occupation force, it's still probably going to take months if not years to train the personnel and manufacture the equipment they need to stand up to chemtanks and shimmer monsters.

Unless, of course, they get outside help. I think it's been pretty clear that Ambessa was going to play a significant role in the war, given how she was set up at the end of season 1, but I think we've been underestimating how important Noxian military assets are going to be for Piltover. I think Piltover is going to have to call in Noxian troops for assistance, at least initially, or they're going to lose the war, badly.

And of course, once a Noxian army is in Piltover, they're not going to want to leave....

Ok but, what WOULD you do if you had 200BN dollars?

So I've been thinking about a lot this over the last two weeks. Initially, I wanted to come back with a spreadsheet that detailed every penny. The longer I let it sit, the more issues I remember.

I would love to fix the world, but even with all of the money in the world, one person can't do everything.

Obviously, I would take care of my friends and family first--pay off mortgages, student loans, etc. I'm not talking about buying new homes or Lamborghinis or anything, just getting everyone comfortable where they currently are.

I'd love to single-handedly dismantle capitalism, but that's not realistic. I would take about 10% of the money ($20B) to put toward my own specific interests--indigenous issues, water issues, homelessness, etc--which would include a significant amount of lobbying. Like it or hate it, lobbying moves mountains in US politics.

Where I live, we have a ton of empty strip malls that I'd like to rezone from commercial to residential and retrofit into apartments. They would go to low-income or no-income households, but without an income cap so no one's worrying about getting kicked out because they're above the income threshold. Housing is a right, not a privilege. Dignity is a right, not a privilege.

The ex-Christian in me wants to reverse-colonize the suburbs. I learned religion at the knee of teaching pastors and missionaries. Instead of introducing Jesus to villages in Africa, I want to introduce critical thinking to planned subdivisions. Get banned books in the hands of the children whose parents had them pulled. Explain what a land acknowledgment and colonization are.

The rest of the money ($180B) would go to scholarships and grants for meticulously verified nonprofits. I know there are bad actors, but most are good. There are amazing people running life-changing projects I can't even imagine.

I know I'm forgetting things, but this is the absolute most basic. If you ask me this question again two years from now, my answer may be different. My answer six years ago certainly would have been.

Your turn. How would you spend $200B?

hearing about some of the intent for shopping malls when they were originally made as like community centers makes me Whistful. not that the original concepts were without flaw but god if we had just continued on that trajectory instead of fucking jettisoning everything but the stores...imagine if Your Average Mall was filled w useful shit like post offices and doctors and libraries and whatnot from the start like originally planned instead of those being a rarity w a scant few retrofitted malls.

#buzzy #malls #speaking mostly to the u.s. apparently in some countries the community center idea is kinda a standard for malls #...but obviously the Monument To Consumerism is the more common one youll run into around the world #'oh the community necessities couldnt afford the rent so-' WHY WERE THEY ASKED TO PAY THE SAME RENT AS FUCKING COMMERICAL STORES #bitch!!#make that shit Cheap or Free!!!#we dont have this shit bc it makes money we have it cause its fucking useful

Boosting Competitiveness: Certified businesses can set themselves apart in the market, improving their popularity and potentially bringing in fresh business prospects.

Compliance and Risk Oversight: ISO 50001 consultant services in Lebanon aids teams in keeping up with regulatory demands and managing hazards linked to energy supply and price fluctuations.

The sectors in Lebanon are most actively pursuing ISO 50001 certification?

Lebanon has various sectors working hard to get ISO 50001 certification in Lebanon They know it boosts energy management and green principles. Here are some key players:

The Manufacturing and Industrial Sector: This division uses a lot of energy. Subdivisions like cement, steel, and food processing are the most active in this cause.

The Hospitality and Tourism Sector: Hotels and resorts are working hard to get this certification too. It makes them more eco-friendly, saving energy and costs and attracting green travelers. Also, the sector’s green credentials get a major boost.

The Public Sector and Government Buildings: To lead in energy efficiency, government buildings are choosing ISO 50001 too. Retrofitting buildings and optimizing energy use is becoming popular.

The Healthcare Sector: Hospitals use tons of energy. To manage it better, many are getting ISO 50001 certified. This not only saves money but also ensures patient care isn’t disturbed by energy issues.

The Retail and Commercial Buildings: Including shopping malls and large retail chains, this sector is looking to save money and boost their CSR profile by getting ISO 50001 auditor in Lebanon.

The Education Sector: Universities are going green too, with ISO 50001 certification in Lebanon helping to lower energy costs and teach everyone the importance of energy management.

The Energy and Utilities Sector: This includes electricity and water providers. They’re getting ISO 50001 consultant services in Lebanon to optimize operations and align with national energy strategies.

Why Are they Choosing ISO 50001 certification in Lebanon?

We need to rethink the American love affair with the automobile and redesign cities to reduce car pollution

By The Editors

Credit:

Thomas Fuchs

March 2024 Issue

Automobiles

Anthropologist Daniel Miller has observed that an alien visiting Earth might well suppose that four-wheeled creatures run the planet. These rulers, he notes, are “served by a host of slaves who walk on legs and spend their whole lives serving them.” He meant this as a joke, but the punch line comes at the expense of American car culture. In the U.S., the costs of car dependency keep growing, far above the $12,000-per-year average expense of owning a new one.

Coast-to-coast, the cars and trucks we drive cause about 16 percent of greenhouse gas emissions. They cause significant air pollution, worsening asthma and heart disease rates, and contribute to a nationwide epidemic of obesity. About 69 percent of car trips in the U.S. are two miles or less. Motor vehicle collisions are a leading cause of death in people ages one to 44, the most bitter part of the mayhem accompanying some six million reported accidents per year. Since 2010 the number of pedestrians killed by cars has increased 77 percent, to about 7,500 a year, a growing fraction of all traffic deaths.

America’s car culture—glamorized in advertisements, enforced by zoning laws and enabled by taxpayer subsidies—is a choice that now comes at too high a cost, both for ourselves and for the environment. After a century of its central place in our lives, we need to rethink our world into one not hitched to the automobile.

On supporting science journalism

If you’re enjoying this article, consider supporting our award-winning journalism by subscribing. By purchasing a subscription you are helping to ensure the future of impactful stories about the discoveries and ideas shaping our world today.

Automobile-first ideals dominate in the U.S. Our countryside is carved up by superhighways connecting bedroom suburbs with sprawling cities, with too many nowherevilles surrounded by parking lots and strip malls and ringed with sound barrier walls—all built to serve the sacred automobile. Atop former towns and neighborhoods, broad avenues are lined with drive-through hamburger stands and banks.

Across the country, the car is the only way to get around and not only in rural places. This reliance spawns an ever more disconnected nation of drivers suffering an epidemic of road rage. As Lancaster University sociologist John Urry wrote, “the car is immensely flexible and wholly coercive,” promising freedom but trapping drivers into inhabiting their cars.

During the height of the pandemic, when office commutes and rush-hour traffic suddenly vanished, younger people turned to Uber for their transportation, and “peak car” seemed to apply. A glimpse of a life not spent in worship of the automotive golden calf comes with New York City unveiling congestion pricing starting at $15 (also on tap in other cities). Cleveland is reviving its Public Square by turning empty office space into apartments and suburbs retrofitting themselves for walking. This trend accompanies moves across the country to build more bike lanes.

The turn toward online shopping and home delivery has lessened the need for a second car, double garages and massive parking lots. The cell phone has begun replacing the driver’s license as de rigueur identification in the 21st century, hastening cutting the car cord.

As with so many of our problems today, solutions are obvious and right in front of us, ranging from sidewalks to subways. But they face inevitable obstruction by an obstreperous highway fund lobby, as well as politicians and talking heads spouting nonsense about better lives somehow being un-American. Voters outnumber these voices, however, and tell us they want less car-dependent lives.

We can start by reforming zoning laws to eliminate low-density and single-family residential home restrictions in new developments and to add flexibility for stores and enough homes to support them. Sidewalks and bike trails should receive the same priority as roads in our cities and close-in suburbs, instead of being afterthoughts. Unreasonable demands by mayors and employers that the masses get back behind the wheel and return to offices (where we are, in fact, less productive) need to stop. The average American commute is nearly 28 minutes of uncompensated labor each way. Let’s make our cities less car-dependent instead.

Thinking more ambitiously, we can provide discounts to bicyclists who take the train, free taxis to twice-a-week commuters, incentives for e-bikes and other financial breaks to eschew second cars and the congestion they cause. (While we’re at it, the EPA should end its designation of SUVs, minivans and vans as trucks that can be less fuel-efficient. We see this as a frankly cynical result of auto industry lobbying that crowds more efficient cars out of dealerships.) Behind plans like New York’s congestion pricing is another reality—car parking is too cheap across much of the country, where variable on-street parking pricing can reset plans from hopping in the car during peak periods to taking the subway or the bus instead.

Like with any bad romance, none of these ideas will help end “America’s supposed love affair with the automobile” without addressing the underlying psychology of dependence that makes reaching for the keys second nature. “As industry considers itself dependent on continued car sales, initiatives to reduce car attachment will be increasingly targeted by industry and its lobbying organizations, as well as politicians representing automotive interests,” writes transportation analyst Stefan Gössling in The Psychology of the Car, warning that “powerful campaigns already seek to strengthen bonds with the private car.”

Gaslit by car ads blaring outdoor scenes available in real life only to plutocrats with a ranch in Montana, we idle alone in traffic instead of living our off-road fantasies, lulled by heated seats, dashcams and surround sound, while we pollute the air.

In America, where advertising matters, public service announcements should make the case for ditching the car keys with positive messages. “No ridiculous car trips,” exhorted one ad campaign in Sweden, appealing to common sense and community spirit (bicycles were awarded to people with the most ridiculously short car commutes) to try pedaling to work. Commercials should extol biking short distances and note the time saved on public transport spent reading or answering e-mails, instead of time spent clutching the wheel worrying a fender bender will bump up our insurance premiums.

We need a call nationwide to end our car-centric lifestyle and stand on our own two feet or, better, two pedals. Otherwise, those aliens will have made the right call on who serves who, the cars—or the people.

Safe Passage: Exploring Lift Mechanisms and Elevator Door Lock Monitoring Costs

From towering skyscrapers to bustling shopping malls, elevators are the silent workhorses, seamlessly transporting people and goods. But have you ever considered the intricate mechanisms behind their smooth ascent and descent, or the safety systems ensuring those journeys are secure? This article delves into the world of lift mechanisms and the crucial role of elevator door lock monitoring, exploring their costs and why they matter.

Understanding Lift Mechanisms: A Symphony of Engineering

At the heart of every elevator lies a complex interplay of mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic components. The most common types include:

Traction elevators: Employing steel ropes and sheaves, these are the workhorses of modern buildings, offering smooth rides and high efficiency.

Hydraulic elevators: Driven by a piston in a fluid-filled cylinder, these are typically used for low-rise buildings or specific load capacities.

Machine room-less (MRL) elevators: A space-saving design where the drive machinery sits atop the hoistway, eliminating the need for a dedicated machine room.

Each type boasts its own advantages and suits specific needs. Regardless of the mechanism, safety remains paramount, and that's where door lock monitoring comes in.
