What a bizarre article. It's about the real estate crunch, but they spend so much time at the beginning talking about the weed store and the gardening sensor startup (not to mention the clever use of "high times" in the headline) that I was thoroughly confused about the point they were trying to make for a while. The relevant part of the example is basically, "SF tech startup finds relatively cheap office space in a long-vacant storefront in Oakland."
- thrownaway2424 12y agoIt is quite a weird read. A lot of these articles feel like the realizations of people who previously were too blinkered to even notice Oakland's existence. It will be bad for Oakland when such people start flooding over here.
