THIS. Culture doesn't have to wait on museums or City Hall. It lives in restaurants, venues, galleries, and shops. Started @newentityco to move tech wealth into exactly that. Talked about it on @greatchatpod: https://t.co/MXz5fSnj6I

It’s incredible how much wealth SF entrepreneurs have created and how little of it has gone toward building culture.

Where are the great museums, new architecture, music venues, public spaces?

Silicon Valley should aspire to leave behind more than ephemeral software.

Loved jumping on @greatchatpod to trade perspectives on tech’s role in building our cities. Thanks so much for having me @ashleymayer!

[Ashley Mayer @ashleymayer]

This week’s @greatchatpod is one of my favorites! @helloligaya, founder of New Entity, joined the chat to talk about the complicated relationship between tech and SF, and why our industry hasn’t left a physical imprint in the way Wall Street and Hollywood have (the startup billboards don’t count).

Straight from the critics’ mouth @sfchronicle is bringing back the star system! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

Beautiful tribute to a true legend and deeply special human @om @tonysphere @trueventures #connectestack

@a_sofie56 @ashleymayer “Brilliant” lol but we all try to positively impact our corner of the world. Food and hospitality led all job growth in SF over the past year. Dollars spent locally
recirculate 3-4x. Small biz matters.

San Francisco is lucky to have the brilliant @helloligaya.

@KylieUncovered Ok I’ll stay tuned, Kylie!

Cali is the only state to hide its $300B budget https://t.co/PFoYMLxIrC

@ashleymayer Tyyysm for the shout out. Just trying to put money where my mouth is!

Why is it that people concluding that "we are all one" get into yoga, esotericism, and reiki
healing as opposed to aiming to contribute to the field of wild animal suffering, foundational valence research, and cosmological qualia? I never understood it.

Chairman Powell at the @federalreserve puts his finger on one of the root causes of inflation at present- labor shortages resulting from covid infections in the ongoing pandemic. Our research suggests a very high ongoing burden of covid infections under the current strategy. (1/)

RECALL ELECTION:

San Francisco voters overwhelmingly supported the ouster of three school board members Tuesday in the city’s first recall election in nearly 40 years.

“For the first time, we’ll have a department, like many other major cities, with the sole responsibility to clean up our filthy, unhealthy streets and sidewalks,” Supervisor @MattHaneySF said.

“For me this is about confronting a public health epidemic with a public health response that matches what we are seeing,” said Supervisor @MattHaneySF, who has advocated for an emergency declaration for two years.

A FOUNDERS GUIDE TO COMMUNITY

Should your startup invest in building community?

It's a big question... one that deserves a thorough answer.

I worked with @lennysan for the last 3 months on a 6,400-word guide published today in his newsletter.

Here are the highlights... 🧵

[Rand Fishkin (follow @randderuiter on Threads) @randfish]

@MichelleBee @SimilarWeb @emilyfields @helloligaya Incredible work :-)

I don't think there's any doubt that without the savvy strategy & effectiveness of tactical outreach/placement, AirBnB wouldn't be where it is today.

[SocioHub.io @sociohub_io]

@helloligaya talks about how communities evolve over time and highlights the strategies for each phase.

She is really an inspiration for all community builders.

@JanelleBitker Legitimate safety concerns here. But $$$ mods are out of reach for many, even with $2.5k. What can citizens do to help? Perhaps add to city fund or via @GGRASF ?
