After all the good things I heard about the show, i had to tune in to watch Fargo last night.  2 minutes in I was done, Ewan McGregor, and Joaquin Phoenix putting on that accent was just too much, not to mention how overdone it was by the rest of the cast.  As a native North Dakotan, I just couldn't bear it, is that really what makes the series?  Maybe that, and how dull and unintelligent folks from the region are portrayed, makes folks from the coasts feel better about themselves I guess.  Lazy writing, poor effort, and rampant stereotyping, awful show...

Ewan McGregor's attempt at that accent irked me in much the same way another Star Wars character's voice did, who shallest not be named. td - I'm getting more to the gist that everyone on the program was inept, nothing got done during that episode in a way that showed anyone possessed a shred of skill or competency. Hell, the scene where Ewan McGregor 2 was talking to Ewan McGregor 1 and Joaquin, the utterance of them seeing themselves as "international businessmen" was written in a way to show how clueless they are, and they're the successful ones! Yeah, I'll probably watch next weeks episode, I'm hoping the story can rise above the tropes...

If it's any consolation Ewan Macgregor isn't even in the first two seasons. And I understand what you're getting at - to which I'll say the majority of characters in the shows run are anything but inept.

I have to wonder if the guy had any employees.  I was close to taking a job out of school with a design build firm that was ran by a repeat offender, scamming folks with fake design work whilst having no qualifications.  He seemed to live it up pretty well, always dressed nice on his social media stuff, had a few young designers on staff.  So I got the invite to interview, looked a little deeper, and immediately cancelled.  That company was defunct less than a year later, but, he's back at it again from the looks of his whoscammedme page...

It's always been a little weird to me how easy it is to get a fake stamp. I could look up literally any architect in the state and order a stamp with their name and license number. Do the stamp makers even verify your credentials when you place an order?

David: My dad, who was a professional engineer, had exactly what you describe happen to him. Some guy found his engineering license information in the public record, had a stamp made, and then used it to stamp engineering drawings. He only learned about it when some litigation developed and he was notified of the suit. He had no trouble extricating himself from the suit since it was obvious that he was not involved, but it does make you scratch your head.

That one is a gray area, and sounds like someone was pissed they were proven wrong. Besides, we all know they alter the light timing to get more tickets. It's a well known fact here in Chicago.

I don't think the guy should have received a fine. He had a hypothesis and used his training to prove it. That's scientific research to me - although I can see a potential HSW argument (a grasping for straws one at that, so perfect for today's governmental climate).

He referred to himself a "professional engineer" in the body of his letter. The fine was strictly for misrepresenting himself as an engineer, based on that statement. It had absolutely nothing to do with his traffic light analysis.

I must have glossed over that. In that case the fine is warranted.

Apr 27, 17 12:38 pm  ·

SpontaneousCombustion

The original reporter ran this with a "fined for unlicensed math" headline, and it has continued to be portrayed that way. The reality is the traffic division was annoyed by his letter so turned him in for calling himself an engineer, and the engineering board was happy to fine him for it. There are no math cops in Oregon.

Apr 27, 17 12:48 pm  ·

Oh absolutely - someone was petty AF and turned him in. I wonder what would have happened if he just said "engineer" - kind of ties into boards apparently not giving a damn that IT companies are using "Solutions Architect", UX Architect, and the like.

SpontaneousCombustion

Balkins I was quoting from his own lawsuit against the state - not an OSBEELS document.  Fyi all of this occurred following two years of him emailing OSBEELS - it wasn't an issue of calling himself an engineer once - they warned him in their responses and he came back with more emails insisting "yes, I am an excellent engineer" and further detailing his practice of "Electronics Engineer" in Oregon.  This was also after he'd previously tried to sue the city over the traffic light timing and that case got thrown out, after which he attempted to peddle the traffic light story to 60 Minutes and CBS News, among others. 

Remember how the staff at OBAE referred to you as a "known pest"? This guy is even more pesky.  Let that be a cautionary tale.

Richard if I were you I'd focus less on whether or not you have a legal right to practice architecture in Sweden from Oregon (because A. nobody seems to be arguing against that at all - you just for some reason feel the need to keep repeating it; and B. you're not actually practicing architecture in Sweden and are very unlikely to ever do so, so it's all moot anyway). What I'd focus on if I were you is that the boards in Oregon have a clear history of going after people who aggravate them - and you have a history of doing so, and of already been investigated by them in the pas - so why keep poking that bear? Mr. Järlström seems to have done so on purpose, and seems to have sought publicity over this issue - but he has the resources to fight that fight for sport. You on the other hand clearly have extremely scant resources, as evidenced by your boasting here over coming up with +/- 11k to put toward your student loans as if that is some sort of accomplishment, even though you're in your late 30s and don't pay for groceries, rent or utilities, so could reasonably have amassed hundreds of thousands by now if you'd only get a job.

Flatfish

Still peanuts. The upshot is you don't have the resources to do what Mr. Järlström is doing in deliberately riling up the board for the sake of notoriety. It seems like you're trying to bait them, or bait others to report you to them. If they ever do fine you and/or ban you from ever gaining a license in OR, you won't be able to afford to defend yourself regardless of whether they're right or wrong, so why stir up trouble?

Apr 30, 17 6:55 pm  ·

Flatfish

Who are you "defending yourself" against though? It just seems like you're trying to pick a fight. Nobody here is arguing with you about your right to advertise services in Sweden, so why keep bringing it up? That's a strategy that works well in gaining publicity for people who can afford to stir up charges from the state and then sic their legal team on them to clear it all up. For somebody without that luxury it's a bad strategy to pick a fight with the state, or try to rile up others to report you to the state, because you won't be able to effectively fight the fines, or the restrictions on your future license privileges - whether or not the state is in the wrong.   At present nobody here on Archinect is arguing against your right to advertise services to Sweden, and the state has not put up any objections either, correct? So why not continue as you're doing, quietly, and stop trying to raise objections?

Apr 30, 17 8:47 pm  ·

Flatfish

Hey suit yourself. The board's never going to say "we're fining you because you're annoying us", but Oregons' boards sure have a history of coming up with charges against people who have made pests of themselves. Lawyers know when it benefits themselves to shut up, and they don't broadcast hypothetical defenses to charges that don't exist yet. If you can't afford to pay lawyers to fight those charges, don't annoy the board. It's that simple, though I know you well enough to know that you likely won't learn until you owe tens of thousands in fines and legal fees.

Who is telling you to hide? I'm saying stop attaching your situation to this other troublemaker's. Be quiet. Stop picking a fight with the board.

Look, you know there's enough out there that there could easily be a legitimate case against you.  For a long time you did have your google page set up to identify you as an "Architect", and identifying your location as Oregon. This whole offering services in Sweden only thing isn't going to fly to explain that. The cached version of that is still easy to find.  You're a sitting duck.  Stop quacking unless you've got the 20k for a good defense lawyer.

In my case this wouldn't have been the issue. It turns out I was "following [the] thread at the time of receiving the notification." The issue was that I never opted in to following the thread when I started receiving the notifications. Now that I have opted out by clicking "unfollow" I'm not getting them.

The mating habits of the capybara, courtesy of wikipedia, have me laughing hysterically with my son: "When in estrus, the female's scent changes subtly and nearby males begin pursuit.[30] In addition, a female alerts males she is in estrus by whistling though her nose.[22] During mating, the female has the advantage and mating choice. Capybaras mate only in water, and if a female does not want to mate with a certain male, she either submerges or leaves the water.[22][27] Dominant males are highly protective of the females, but they usually cannot prevent some of the subordinates from copulating.[30] The larger the group, the harder it is for the male to watch all the females. Dominant males secure significantly more matings than each subordinate, but subordinate males, as a class, are responsible for more matings than each dominant male.[30] The lifespan of the capybara's sperm is longer than that of other rodents."

Just getting going on my house.  I'm really struggling with not picking out every little problem.  They've already forgotten two foundation things.  I had them fix (sort of got fixed) one.  The other can be done later. 

 

My sanity (what little there was) may be tested.

Gensler didn't want to see it after all.

I would renege the offer to see the portfolio after seeing the lack of effort the OP put into the application as well. Good for the OP that they recognized that. Bad on the OP for posting it in the first place.

Curious to know why Archinect allows a post like this to be removed at the request of the OP, but this one was left ... even after the OP's name was stricken from the community (only to come back later).

Probably because Balkin's name is already out there while the other was a fresh grad looking for their first job.

Because the one that's gone was requested, by the OP, to be deleted and the other wasn't.

Good bye. I'll just continue on with my business.

Good Bye to this worthless forum. I'm not going to accept any webcast, interview or whatever from this forum.

Please delete my account, administrator including this thread and all posts FROM me on this forum.

Thank You.

Rusty!

I like the new inner reply feature to comments. Can't ever recognize this place anymore!

I went over my post history and lord knows how the fuck was I not banned back then. Hilarious, but kinda annoying. Also, the forum is very slow these days. Perhaps for the best. 

Is there a sub on reddit where professionals shoot shit these days? Or somewhere else? I finally got banned from all other forums that I like to torture.
