@rohindhar 32nd is interesting block btwn el camino and california. It doesn't have big stone signs for Sea Cliff but is in the neighborhood & has beautiful trees and homes all really nice. Other side of Cal., has way less trees and less manicured lawns/homes. tree lines are underestimated.
@rohindhar In boom/bust cycles of the Bay, the boom attracts people to SF. As boom extends population pushes out for "affordable" housing and different vibe. COVID bust drained population and hit Oakland. AI boom is hitting & if trend follows, it pushes out to Oakland in the coming years.
@rohindhar whoa, very nice. Feels like the rise of an entrepreneurial realtor class/individual that creates value through content/posts around the broad and very specific economy of the area, rather than simply shilling cities and homes. I used to get some of this from SocketSite.
@rohindhar In the recent past, retailers in west portal pushed back hard on any multistory development on the strip. Believing it would lead to higher prices for retail stores. Possible the price they'll pay for shooting down 3-5 story builds is a 9-story development.
@rohindhar Can’t tell exactly where you are but a neighborhood like Westwood highlands, which is a charter neighborhood, and has many of its own rules, has all lines in the backyards ( also no parking signs and you can’t run a distillery or a mortuary out of your home).
@bdl4186@chaseakiddy@BillSimmons if you listen to @billsimmons he talks about life in Wheeler, dorm at Holy Cross (not as good as Alumni but what can you do), on many many pods.
@cmclymer I think what baseball did to improve the live experience is relevant to non-sportsball people. It was a light pivot by tech business standards but still a great lesson in making a move in a world where loyalists did not want to move. Feel like it is now universally praised.
