Some of the world's most innovative companies are located just a few thousand feet from Stanford's campus. Yet, local leaders believe this is the best land use for Silicon Valley. (Palo Alto, CA)

@Cande313 We should all be writing this article. Excellent!

@Cande313 @Cande313 our wildfire guide could provide some helpful health info. And @media_outlier should feel free to adaot/steal (with appropriate credit): https://t.co/Qk7vPBVm1B

@SAPAriba it looks like https://t.co/1hcS4kPbnL is down. Any idea of when it will be restored? It's business critical for us!

@Oaklandside has the largest newsroom in Oakland and it's growing. Not sure why you want to talk it down.

[Steve Reich @mgruff]

@Elmanogonsalves The Oakland side isn’t exactly a major news paper !

[southpaw @nycsouthpaw]

The New York Times covered Nicola Sturgeon’s arrest from the perspective of its meaning for Sturgeon herself and her party, but it covered Donald Trump’s indictment from the perspective of its meaning for the prosecutors and the nation.

@IDoTheThinking @APA_Planning Dorothy Walker was such a wonderful woman. Instrumental in so many of the good things in modern Berkeley history, and as an opponent of the forces of reaction.

Capt. Spangler is buried nearby in the military cemetery overlooking Omaha Beach. #DDay

[Lance Knobel @lknobel]

Utah Beach (when we visited in 2016), where 79 years ago today, Lt. Lawrence Knobel and K Company was in the first wave on #DDay. A few days later, Capt. John Spangler was killed by a sniper, so my father had a battlefield promotion to captain.

.@Gannett should donate its bottom performing 100 papers to community organizations. They're not producing profit for the company. The trajectory is brutal. Let the communities take a shot. And this would enable Gannett to focus on the saveable papers. @newsguild

[Jay Rosen @jayrosen_nyu]

It's wired in, it's blatant, and it's old news, but to me it remains remarkable the way the establishment press uses the term "conservative" to mean any action the extreme right wing favors. And not only that. The more extreme the act, the more "conservative" are the actors!

LOL

Fun Fact: There are 2 escalators in the entire state of Wyoming and 4 in Vermont.

[Brandy Zadrozny @BrandyZadrozny]

My kingdom (I have no kingdom) for an interviewer to push back and say “That’s the single dumbest thing I’ve ever heard. It was confirmed by police. Seems like you are not only badly informed but disturbingly invested in disproving that a white supremacist murdered people. Why?”

How many stakes has Stephen Curry driven through opponents hearts?

@mariaressa at @UCBerkeleyIRP "Lies spread six times as fast as facts." #logansymposium2023

[Lance Knobel @lknobel]

It's the first time in perhaps 25 years that I agree with @maureendowd. (Although there was also ait of toxic, destructive behavior, too.)

[Carl Quintanilla @carlquintanilla]

“.. I’m mystified when I hear that so many of our 20-something news assistants prefer to work from home. At that age, .. I never could have latched onto so many breaking stories if I hadn’t raised my hand and said, ‘I’ll go.’”

Schumer deserves more criticism for how he has handled all of this

@DanaHoule It's The Daily Telegraph, not NYT.

Read everything in this superb thread to understand the imperatives for true progressive thinking both in the Bay Area and nationally.

[Lance Knobel @lknobel]
