We are looking back at seven questions from the past seven days of news coverage, including lead found in schools, tenant organizing, and weekend festivities. How much do you remember?
Best of luck and let us know how you did.
I'm confused how you can have an "exclusive" on something that's going *over the public airwaves*. I mean, anyone with a radio can tune in and find out what happened. It's like having an "exclusive" about the weather. Huh?
“The key difference is that Vienna prioritizes subsidizing construction, while the United States prioritizes subsidizing people, with things like housing vouchers. One model focuses on supply, the other on demand. Vienna’s choice illustrates a fundamental economic reality, which is that a large-enough supply of social housing offers a market alternative that improves housing for all.”
Some important lessons here for American cities like #SanFrancisco

Seen in San Francisco. And I agree with the sentiment. Any DA who can see a video of an aggressive security guard murder an unarmed retreating individual (Banko Brown) and claim it as “clear self-defense” should be disqualified. #SanFrancisco #BankoBrown #JusticeForBankoBrown #Mastodon #BlackMastodon

How you know you're in #SanFrancisco I guess. (Seriously, who did this? A friend guessed it had to be a bartender and I will agree to this.)
SAN FRANCISCO: I wore this shirt while walking. White guy in a New York Mets jersey asks me, “you voting for Trump?” I said, “are you serious—who are you voting for?”

@CrackedWindscreen Yes indeed, Brad Templeton and I have (respectfully) locked horns on Reddit a few times about this and #FSDBeta.
Suffice it to say, that I do not agree with Brad's take and I am automatically sympathetic to #SanFrancisco's concerns.
Broadly, as you know, I am not going to hop on some "pro-ADS bandwagon" without rigorous and independently scrutinized safety cases, testing procedures and validation processes - none of which have ever been demanded of #Waymo or #Cruise.

One of the best siu yuk in the city at the moment is at Cantoo, a Cantonese-Venezuelan restaurant in the Tenderloin. They call it lechon, of course. But you can also say siu yuk. In fact you can speak Spanish, Cantonese or English to them. The quality of their food is so good and they are way cheaper than (1) most SF restaurants and (2) even cheaper and better than Chinatown SF restaurants

This explanation from @DeanBaker13 is one of the most plausible I’ve seen yet:
“My guess as to why office rents have not fallen more is that the owners are worried about the impact on appraisals for either new loans or sales,” said Dean Baker. “If you cut the rent by 50%, that will quickly be reflected in an appraisal.”

Looking at #SanFrancisco maps, and checking my old Dreamwidth stuff, looking for:
Where are the places my characters might hang out? Where are places I want to promote?
And seeing so many places that have gone out of business. It hurts.
I need to write about the place that *is*, not the place that was, the place that's in my memories. But remembering stuff that's gone hurts, and so does feeling how much I and SF are separating, and that separation just keeps growing. #writing #AmWriting

The myth of San Francisco as a “liberal” city is overblown. If you study the history of SF you will see it is anything but. Periods of time have existed where currents of change and forward-thinking prevailed, but this city and its politics is moderate to conservative. #SanFrancisco
