hey guys please address the cost of housing I don’t want communism thanks
Abundance done right is building housing, bringing back American manufacturing and creating jobs Everything else is NIMBY anti-people anti-jobs BS that weakens California and America
1/ 🇺🇸 Today, @CAForever submitted detailed plans for the next great American city, an hour north of Silicon Valley, including: Solano Foundry, America’s largest manufacturing park, Solano Shipyard, our largest shipyard, and walkable neighborhoods for 400,000 Californians.
Everyone should thank @Scott_Wiener for pouring nearly a decade of his life tirelessly fighting in the legislature for this landmark bill to finally be passed. Current and future Californians appreciate and thank you.
HUGE NEWS!! YIMBY’S REJOICE !! California is making historic strides today as @CAGovernor Gavin Newsom signs #SB79 — streamlining the building of more housing all across the Golden State. No, it does not supersede local control as some have falsely claimed. No, it is not…
The best way to fight this would be Special Economic Zones within the United States. Locate them next to shipping hubs with access to talent and capital. Use Federal Land. Alameda has ~600 empty acres that's Federal, lots more that's designated for industrial.
I try to stay in my San Jose lane, but as a former East Side public school teacher I have to say — this is a terrible disservice to our students. Lowering standards does not help children. It hurts them.
New SF public school plan would - eliminate homework and weekly tests from counting toward semester grade - allow students to take the final exam multiple times - convert all B grades into As, and all Fs into Cs It’s hard to see the difference between this policy and what…
Last year, 60% of Oaklanders voted to recall Mayor Sheng Thao. We now know she was not only incompetent but also corrupt. Let's turn the page and show the world that Oakland can be an inspiring story of good governance and competent leadership. Empower Oakland is endorsing…
I just published a new essay, and since the algorithm prefers links in replies, I dutifully put it in a thread about why I wrote it. But a lot of people didn't notice the link, so screw that: The Origins of Wokeness: paulgraham.com/woke.html
Mdest proposal: All Luigi fans and stans should band together and create or purchase their own health insurance provider. If the problem is really United Healthcare, they can save countless lives. If the 2% profit UH makes is really so obscene, surely all Americans will be…
Longshoremen Union about to cripple USA economy in a strike, and Canada and Mexico win, and Biden Administration has power to stop it, but are beholden to union extortion. They want to ban automation at ports, which kind of proves the point that we should automate.
Between 1970 and 2012, public school enrollment has barely moved, but the numbers of staff they employed have skyrocketed, with the largest increases happening among staff not involved in teaching.
This is why police reports almost certainly dramatically understate the surge of crime outside Oakland International Airport. Google reviews pick it up clearly though.
This Bono quote is even better than I remembered
Love this @nytimes article. Poor students are better off when elite unis require the SAT because (unlike grades and essays), it closely predicts student achievement. It’s mediocre rich kids, not smart disadvantaged ones who stand to gain from the recent anti-SAT trend.
It’s not the first and it’s not the last. The videos online have been triggering. We have to say no now. Even if you hate the actions in the middle east, Israel is not all Jews, like Hamas is not all Muslims.
Targeting a Jewish-owned business with anti-Israel graffiti & vandalism is absolutely anti-Semitic. The anti-Jewish rhetoric we’re seeing online, on college campuses & elsewhere — e.g., blaming Jews for the Hamas pogrom — has real-world consequences. This is how it all starts.
Just a not-so friendly reminder that our DSA supported elected officials in Oakland are: @carroll_fife @MayorShengThao @Kaplan4Oakland (She's Jewish) @nikki4oakland
The DSA held a hate rally, chanting: “from the River to the Sea,” which is code for wiping Israel from the face of the earth. Let that sink in. The DSA is calling for the destruction of the Jewish State amid the largest single-day massacre of Jews since the Holocaust. When…
RECALL UPDATE: The group working to recall DA Pamela Price has submitted its final petition paperwork to the registrar of voters, which now has 10 days to approve or ask for changes. Then signature collection can begin, the campaign says. Background info: berkeleyscanner.com/2023/08/15/cou…
The most foundational resource for material prosperity is energy. We have a moral obligation to produce as much, as cleanly, for as cheaply as possible.
