We spent $600B - $1.2T in real dollars fixing Y2K. It was a huge effort!

The lack of major problems from Y2K was more a result of solid preparation than misplaced fears.

Dario Amodei was so worried about Y2K that his high school teacher still remembers it decades later.

He’s been a doomer for much longer than I thought!

Really impressed by what Devon and her team have achieved.

I can’t wait to visit Esmeralda!

GREAT NEWS: The Council voted to advance Esmeralda's approvals!

This was the single most important vote of the project, Oct 14. Adoption of the ordinances is on track for Nov 11

These approvals will unlock tremendous value & opportunity

Are local rock shows just for us olds now?

I went to the Rickshaw Stop last night to see abracadabra, an Oakland band.

About 4 people under the age of 35 who weren’t performing attended; plenty of gen-xers.

The bands were all local and featured young performers.

SF already provides childcare subsidies for families of 4 making up to $324,200.

There is no solution* to family affordability without massively increasing homebuilding, thereby bringing down housing costs.

Mayor Lurie has no viable plan to scale homebuilding.

Yesterday, the Board of Education took an important step toward ending the public school lottery and giving families the certainty they need to put down roots in our city.

Starting in the 2028–29 school year, families will know which neighborhood public elementary school their children are assigned to based on their home address, while retaining choices that reflect the incredible diversity of San Francisco. 

I am also pleased that this direction includes a commitment to ensuring our schools have the resources they need, so parents can feel confident that whichever school their children attend, they will find a welcoming environment where they can learn and thrive.

I want to thank the Board of Education and SFUSD leadership, including School Board President Phil Kim and SFUSD Superintendent Maria Su, for helping make San Francisco a city where more families can build their futures.
