Interesting how San Francisco has almost the same density as NYC when you get to 2km. I wonder if this has to do with density of old neighborhoods surrounding fidi out-densitying most hoods in nyc

I remember playing supertux as a kid when my grandparents bought me a disk of games for my birthday. It was just a bunch of FOSS games like these ripped to a disk and sold to unknowing grandparents. Fun to see that the source is out there o

This is not a political statement, it just teenagers doing really dumb things when having a metric-ton of fireworks is easily available and no people who will hold them accountable (self driving robots cant get mad)

Probably, most people don’t really care about inanimate objects or their well being unless they own them. I’ve seen people of all walks of life litter for no reason. Teenagers are much worse I see them tag the back seats of busses or just b

A culmination of many things happening at once; lunar new year in Chinatown brings with it tons of heavy fireworks ordinance that every kid who’s parents run a restaurant have access to - Saturday night teenagers who have an itching for doi

To be clear; what I mean LA as in LA city not the county. LA and Miami are similar in they have some neighborhoods that are walkable (the most popular parts), but the majority of them are not and they’re not very walkable between the two. L

Miami is walkable in some parts, I personally feel it’s as walkable as LA, walkable neighborhoods but big moats between them (not just the bridges)

Small is relative; I live in a relatively large apartment (1000sqr feet) in a super dense part of a city; everything I can access (gym, food, healthcare) is within less than 5 walk and I have a great community of people I meet with almost

There's a lot to say that people prefer endless war over scrum meetings. But I think there's a greater story for the politicos in the room; the way to destroy an enemy is more about destroying morale than killing. That or give the

I doubt it’s bike lanes and not specific factors for each of these businesses. There are plenty of stores that are doing fine in that corridor with those lanes. Dandilion chocolate; Taishoken; Bernal cutlery to name a few. It seems like it’

I wonder if this can be resolved with: * Real names on restaurant, just verify their ID. Then ban them from opentable/resy (might be harsh, but will disincentivize behavior) * No transferring reservations, if rez is cancelled, hold the

If most of the transit opportunities for Cruise is less than 5 miles in San Francisco, as most people are not going end to end or even end to half; wouldn't this mean it's not every ride that this will happen. Though it's sti

In San Francisco, this would be more than 60% across the city; so seems generally fine?

I would really love to work for the USDS; ever since their big publicity outreach during the obama admin, too bad the salaries are abysmal comparably to most tech companies. 184k top band in san francisco; 150k in DC. I could join a mid tie

Building neighborhoods with parking can lead to worse traffic, the further out you build things, the more likely people need to drive. Roads cannot become infinitely wide, so if there's a shopping center in the middle of a city, but ho

Senior FE is high demand, low supply position. In a similar boat for hiring, but I think it helps when you are able to present your company as one that values FE (a good website for starters).

I really hope L Breed and her leadership approve more residential conversions of office spaces in downtown. A few developers are interested but there seems to be a holdup for whatever reason. SF has already had some successful conversions l

I recall many years ago that I had almost been run over by a police officer in the bay area making a left turn too short (and drove into the left lane of oncoming traffic). My bicycle was destroyed but fortunately I had survived unscathed.

I am sure 99% of these “shaking and crying” posts are some level of copy-paste trolling that’s common in internet culture.
