Sure makes it hard to confirm a driver has seen your bike at the intersection when the windows look like shiny black granite

Sounds like San Raphael. 1,600 units all within spitting distance of 101, starting … in the next 2-3 years

That's so you can put a concrete protected bike lane on both sides of the street!

Seems like there’s a healthy overlap between “ let’s roll out AI a little bit slower” and “require all data centers to produce 20% of their electricity on site with Solar & Wind”

every huge luxury SUV weighs over 6,000lbs, so your fake LLC can deduct the entire purchase price in one year as a corporate "capital investment".

Can confirm: as a white carpenter (with politics slightly to the right of AOC) from North Carolina, there are apparently no statements too racist to be openly discussed while installing crown molding…

License plate readers are not complicated technology. (and no city should have facial recognition anyway) Why are we buying it from Flock? Just buy the hardware and hire a couple recent Cal grads to run it!

Berkeley mayor says no to Flock. Will council follow suit? A new proposal from Mayor Adena Ishii "opposes the renewal, approval, or authorization of any contract with Flock Safety."

I support Mayor @mayoradenaishii.bsky.social and @cecilialunaparra.bsky.social's measure to cut out Flock. I'm supportive of the tech, meter maids and squad cars use them, as a way to discourage deadly police chases. But the Flock company has privacy holes.

It’s incredible that the only ones we EVER hear about are two women, who every 200 GOP votes, actually speak up and think before they vote… the other 48 zombies are too busy trading stocks & doing pushups to think.

Okay so like I said, why is the department blocking bike lanes in the flatlands for fire safety when the number one obstacle to stopping wild fires in Berkeley is street parking in the hills?

Fantastic lunch at the Model Bakery in Walnut Creek. Walked a half mile:

Walnut Creek should be studied as the catastrophic endgame of car culture & parking obsessed suburban planning. It’s in abysmal pedestrian environment.

I crossed like 28 lanes of traffic to go five blocks across downtown.

Jamie Dimon wins out. He privatizea the profits. Sticks the taxpayer with the bailouts:

WSJ “ benefits the economy” is a curious way to phrase “increases risk to workers of catastrophic meltdown”

At least corporate landlords HAVE a maintenance and anti-discrimination policy...

I'm loving the effect of mom and pop landlords in Berkeley having to change the 35 year old carpets and fix the broken glass, to attract tenants away from the thousands of new apartments.

Can’t we just write a law that commercial drivers license licenses don’t expire for 10 more years if you have one today????

Baseball is a big tent. And probably the least harmful place for right wing nut cases to hang out. Certainly better than the CDC or FDA
