Hello tech friends. If you are still hiring, please reply to this with links to jobs and share. If you can help in any capacity also please reply. As long as we’re in this dumpster fire let’s get toasty together.

@SamwiseSF I really appreciated the voter doc you made last time around. Any chance you made one for this election that you'd be willing to share?

@graue Oops, northbound*

@graue They also need to fix the mixing zone southbound at Milton. I do it almost every day with kids and it is very scary seeing cars whizzing off the freeway in my direction.

@graue Is there any data on how delivery apps have contributed to this?

@akrazia I hot glue dog kibble to the bait plate. Works like a charm.

Today's use for the pickup truck.

@jordanstaniscia This would've been better.

The only car design I've liked in years 😍

@drivingmzstacey Yeah, agreed about San Jose. Only problem is the mixing zone by St Mary's northbound. I take it with one of my kids almost every day, and every time I pass that mixing zone I hold my breath.

@smad Ahh yeah, I’ve done both. Though I think Monterey West and Hearst East is what it typically chooses. Never thought of reversing it. Monterey is such a mess initially, that I’ll take to the sidewalk. Meanwhile San Jose/freeway is lovely because of concrete. Paint ain’t protection.

Tomorrow is a big day at home. My daughter is transferring to a more challenging high school! She doesn’t bike any/everywhere (yet), but I know she could if she wanted (read: ebike). If you bike in SF, please let me know your reaction to these routes:

@drivingmzstacey You can take that route to San Jose and then go on to Valencia / 17th to avoid Cesar Chavez. Still probably not as good as highlighted route subbing wiggle.

@drivingmzstacey I cut out Woodside/Portola to get from GP to Sunset/West Portal and I couldn't be happier. Instead I take Monterey to Hearst via Genesee. Advantages: fewer hills, very pretty, Hearst is slow street, lots of stop signs on Monterey. There's still a bad stretch of Monterey sharrows.

Had our first experience with @DriveKyte to get the family out to Yosemite last week. It was great! Between their service and our ebikes there is 0 reason to own a car. Would be cool if they let you donate your old car in exchange for xx days of rental cars a la kars4kids.

@graue It isn't just zig-zagging across Folsom on the way up??

@LukeBornheimer @graue @hunterrible @Eeeszy @DeanPreston @fimazaltsman I worry that the rpp move will benefit the mostly wealthy garage owners in the city, many of whom probably own cars. I bet most who own a garage for bike storage (as I do) are riding public transit and can afford a yearly muni pass. FTR, I'd be in favor of rpp, garage or both.

@smad @graue @hunterrible @Eeeszy @DeanPreston @fimazaltsman People have garages but no car (or, better yet, a bike) parked in their garage. Why tax those people when you can make it a simple bundling (on top of) the RPP permit? Straightforward and will effectively encourage public transit usage (and less car ownership) without punishing.

@DrewTumaABC7 my son asked why Chenery between Miguel and Diamond is consistently cold and verrrrry windy no matter the weather in the rest of the city (even today!!). Any ideas?

@DannySauter @agarwal This just in: after receiving a letter from the one principal in his district who still smokes cigarettes, @D4GordonMar moves to allow smoking in all elementary schools.

Motor vehicle crashes are the #1 cause of death of children. Our schools and our kids are safer when the streets around them are calm and slow. I'm disappointed and concerned that an elected official cannot realize this basic idea.

@timcourtney @Momifornia1 @brezina I like that the sports car driver looks slightly evil! That cargo bike is great!!

Our 3.5 year old got this bike lane set as a holiday gift, but for some reason it came with cars instead of bikes 🤔

@jessenoller That's what I read, so I cooked the heck out of them, but couldn't kick the smell (and they tasted bad too). I think they were too old or something. My partner was quite displeased with the lingering funk in the house For clarity they were from a local supplier NOT from Humble.
