Remote work in the post-COVID era changed that calculation dramatically. It is no longer only senior folks who are paid U.S. salaries to live in Europe. This category now includes a lot of mid-level people in sales, recruiting, engineering, etc.

You're right - because when you make U.S. money and live in Europe you're no longer "middle class." You have quickly moved from median income to upper income one in terms of local purchasing power. It's not that complicated. If folks were actually European middle class it would be different.

"We didn't do it - Let's blame the Jews!" Heard that one before and I'm not buying it.

Every time I take the @amtrak.com bus from OUTSIDE the @transitcentersf.bsky.social and drive around Soma for 10 to 15 minutes rather than using the center’s direct on-ramp to the Bay Bridge I am reminded of just how much we need @seamlessbayareaca.bsky.social to get things fixed!

Thankfully it isn’t in @caltrain.com territory or you wouldn’t be allowed to attend.

And Bauer-Kahan will make it harder to get a class 2 or 3 ebike.

If you're intersted take a look at SB 1167 and AB 1942. Two very different approaches to addressing this (one is vastly better than the other in my opinion)

Every time I go to 19th street I look longingly at the empty storefronts inside the station.

This is the exact kind of coverage we need. Thanks for showing us the good, the bad, and the ugly of getting around our area.

Was quickly scrolling through and at first I read the chiron as "One-on-One with ICE President Vance" Yep... seems about right.

@bart.gov I want to use the bikeeep racks at 24th mission but unfortunately couldn’t get either the app to work or my Clipper (apple wallet) to open the lock. Am I doing something wrong or is it only workable with a plastic clipper card that no one anymore?

Super helpful - thank you! Is there a plan to address the outstanding challenges at 16th street mission? It seems like it remamins an outlier even with the upgraded fare gates.

I haven't looked too carefully into CA's billionaire tax proposal, and obviously I support taxing billionaires more. But this also feels like another round in the constant scramble to compensate for the fact that we can't tax property like a normal state.

I’m all about it but in speaking with Davis colleagues who work in Sac they say it is always easier, cheaper, and faster to drive. Not to say we shouldn’t invest in it but I think have to square that circle somehow to get people to make the switch.

How Mississippi Transformed Its Schools From Worst to Best

"The system revolves around standardized testing, and the gains have not always persisted. By raw scores, Mississippi eighth graders still rank 41st on national tests for reading, and 35th for math."

I always have an extra set of headphones and offer them to people saying "I'm so sorry you lost your headphones - here's a pair." It usually achieves the desired outcome.
