Office broker @ JLL. I help companies find cool offices in SF. San Francisco citizen. My Twitter is where local tech/RE/politics meet for beers after work.

[Dan S. Johnson @DanJohnsonCRE]

San Francisco has all the ingredients.

- Talent.
- Capital.
- Culture of creation and risk taking.
- Tons to do.
- Supportive echosystem of innovation.
- Diversity.
- Natural beauty.

All we are missing is a coherent local government. Once we get our shit together, we will witness another long boom. It's on us, the voters.

I'm optimistic. I believe in San Francisco!

Codex is incredible for non technical people like me.

Highly recommend

[Dan S. Johnson @DanJohnsonCRE]

@rezoundous Codex

[Mugilan S @Mugilan_SS]

Codex is not like claude code.

if you know the limit is going to end, like last 10 to 8%, give an very long run task, and even after the limit got ever, it will continue to do the task until the task was completed.

Shout out to @OpenAI team.

[Beff (e/acc) @beffjezos]

It's literally all Claude eating their lunch. Lagging indicator.

Cracked devs on X are leading indicators. Everyone I know switched to Codex. Give it a month and it will be apparent in revenue numbers.

Normal Californians: This is the guy

[CommonSenseiSF💥♻️ @CommonSenseiSF]

Here’s an idea. State of CA signs a contract with @boringcompany for $15B to build within 5 years a fully functional Hyperloop tunnel from SF to LA and @elonmusk covers any overages and fines for delays.

This would be the greatest infrastructure project in modern U.S. history.

[Dan S. Johnson @DanJohnsonCRE]

@laura_waxee @sfchronicle @SFjkdineen There should be zero affordability requirements.

The only focus should be making it easy for developers to quickly add supply.

Enough supply is added, rents go down, especially in older existing units.

This is playing out across the country in cities which built a lot.

[CommonSenseiSF💥♻️ @CommonSenseiSF]

This lady intentionally commits a serious crime, she and her office try to cover it up, she then avoids investigators by claiming a “mental health crisis” and stops going to work (for months), all at the expense of SF residents & businesses.

She is the poster child of socialism.

[Dan S. Johnson @DanJohnsonCRE]

Jackie Fielder is clearly unfit for office and must resign. She literally can’t be relied upon to fulfill her duties.

She should resign partly because she’s in mental health crisis and absent but MOSTLY because she allegedly broke the law by leaking confidential city documents for political reasons.

Are we not going to have simple standards?

Call me old fashioned but I prefer my elected officials to be of sound mind, to show up for work, and to NOT BREAK THE LAW.

She has to go and I hope she’s prosecuted to the full extent of the law for the illegal leaks.

I also hope she gets help, recovers, finds happiness, and a gets less stressful job that suits her.

[San Francisco Chronicle @sfchronicle]

Before San Francisco Supervisor Jackie Fielder stopped attending meetings and said from a hospital last week that she was considering resigning, her office had become the focus of a city investigation into the leak of a confidential memo, according to a person familiar with the matter. https://t.co/eHjpPRtY01

[Dan S. Johnson @DanJohnsonCRE]

San Francisco is on the ups but only because a small number of moderates were elected. The majority is fragile so these races are critical to keep the momentum.

Follow @GrowSF and support @mattdorsey, Manny Yekutiel, and @theoellingtonSF for supervisor in the November election.

[GrowSF @GrowSF]

We are proud to endorse @MattDorsey (District 6), Manny Yekutiel (District 8), and @TheoEllington (District 10) for Supervisor in the November election.

These are leaders who understand that we need more housing, safer streets, and a city government that delivers results.

[Dan S. Johnson @DanJohnsonCRE]

@SFist Some housing + a park would have been better

People can’t enjoy the park when they have to move to a cheaper state because they can’t afford housing here.

[Dan S. Johnson @DanJohnsonCRE]

Shutting down abundant, clean, and reliable energy is moronic.

This facility should be expanded.

Nuclear is safe, clean, and very environmentally friendly.

[San Francisco Chronicle @sfchronicle]

OPINION: California’s last remaining nuclear facility, scheduled to be shuttered in four years, provides 17% of California’s clean, carbon-free electricity. https://t.co/9gOFcKzQxR

[Garry Tan @garrytan]

After Richmond disabled its Flock cameras to "protect immigrants," car thefts jumped 33%.

Immigrant shopkeepers begged to bring them back. Last week their city council finally listened.

Opposing safety cameras is a luxury belief.

[Mayor Matt Mahan @MattMahanSJ]

California has increased spending by 75% in six years.

Are your bills 75% cheaper?
Are our schools 75% better?

No.

Because the problem isn’t how much we spend — it’s how we spend it. And I’ll only spend taxpayer dollars on policies that actually make people’s lives better.

Plan out tomorrow. Thanks for the conversation @friedberg!

[Dan S. Johnson @DanJohnsonCRE]

Solid work

[Super 70s Sports @Super70sSports]

Military experts later confirmed that Chuck Norris and Walter Payton together on the same boat was temporarily the world’s fourth-strongest navy.

[Saad Asad @realsaadasad]

Oregon may ban unfunded affordable housing mandates — because data proves they suppress homebuilding.

When cities require below-market units without offsetting costs, developers build fewer homes, pushing up prices for everyone.

California still uses the same counterproductive approach that Oregon may ban.

[Dan S. Johnson @DanJohnsonCRE]

@sfchronicle He’s single handedly killing our stat’s tax base

Any tax that ultimately leads to less tax revenue is quite obviously stupid and extremely counterproductive

[San Francisco Chronicle @sfchronicle]

Databricks has doubled down on San Francisco, with the tech company expanding its footprint at 1 Sansome St. by 90,000 square feet as a resurgent office market shows its strongest momentum in years. https://t.co/ylCVlBH9Yb

[Dan S. Johnson @DanJohnsonCRE]

This is almost as bad as the law requiring office phone booths to be sprinklered.

Installing sprinklers in these booths costs more than the booths themselves….

I have a solution! 💡

If there is a fire, maybe exit the phone booths 🤷‍♂️

I’m sure the sprinkler companies and the union labor that handles installation had nothing to do with these laws

There are hundreds of examples of regulatory capture in construction just like this.

[Rohin Dhar @rohindhar]

Wow am very surprised to hear this

Next you’ll tell me the pipefitters union was involved somehow in pushing for this ordinance that involves fitting lots of pipes

[Allie ✞ @allie__voss]

The navy already solved:
- small reactors
- long core life
- reliable operation
- mass production

For some reason we've been leaving this technology under water for over 70 years
