Questions: 1. why isn't your opinion respected? 2. are you proposing something (as an advisor) or leading as a CTO? 3. do you have internal credibility? It sounds like you are not really the CTO in spite of the job title - if you have

How about just decriminalize being a drug user/addict and focus on treatment. Where things went wrong and bad in the story is the attitude of the nurses. The social worker who initially responded was no presumptive and did the smart th

Earthquakes have nothing to do with SF's housing issues. (except to the extent that brick buildings needed to be retrofitted.) Lots of other cities have earthquakes and tall buildings. Look at Tokyo.

You are also ignoring WEALTH and capital growth that does not generate income. For example, wealthy people can do 1031 property exchanges - which is non taxable way to sell and buy a replacement property. A wealthy person can construct co

As in freight trains? Because freight trains have problems that need to be solved in the middle of nowhere. For example, a car shell's a wheel and it needs to be cut out to a siding in the middle of Utah in the middle of winter. Commun

First of all I am sorry for your loss. I formed a group within my own city to prevent traffic deaths from happening here. I agree with you; drivers need more sensors to alert them and stop them from killing people. However, computers can st
