"after facing pressure from investors to do so" 🫠

Never left, just grifters wishing ill upon us. 
Ive been waiting for these articles to come out 😂 And love to see it.
Im just not in the mood for the toxic pos’ like Keith, who have us living rent free in his head since he left. Needs to stay in his swamp.

Which empirically has made mimesis stronger which is a net negative

It does really feel like a strange Molloch-esque misalignment of incentives, doesn't it? I just don't get the sense that people are happy in SF? I tend to gravitate happy people but I still notice how the vibe is in places. 

Places like the Presidio have their high vibrations though, that place is great tbh

My impression: SF had its hippie movement, then had the wealthy financiers move in. There was a political tug-of-war, and now the gov is the worst of both worlds.

Then the VCs made their startups move into the city, and all the engineers got dragged into the middle of this ongoing class war.

So, yeah, not ideal.

Ngl as a Bay Area resident I kinda don't like this? I love SF, but there is a corrosive element to SF, it's government, Cali and it's government that is difficult to live with. 

But, we accept reality as it is and transmute it into what we want! Gotta roll up our sleeve and build/create/repair/heal ❤️

Be careful saying anything good about SF. They'll hear you...

Can't believe you still can't build high speed rail in California, LA to San Francisco would be a two hour commute, the TGV from Paris to Lyon takes that long for the similar distance

things aren’t back to 2019 levels yet, but sf has definitely recovered from depths of covid

anecdotally there’s lots of people on the streets, riders on muni, downtown coworking space is packed
