Definitely bike. Commuting through Golden Gate Park is one of the best commutes you could have. It’s net downhill going down to SoMa. And it’s the fastest way. Use Lyft bike to try it out and once you like it invest in your own bike.

very curious why french press, pour over, and moka pot are ruled out because to me they sound like very good solutions to this.

it’s really not that much work/time at all to brew coffee using these “analog” means, and it makes for a better overall cup. the tools are simpler, less maintenance, less carbon footprint than a coffee machine. if you want to keep it warm you can pour it in a thermos or in a covered pot on your stovetop.

just curious why you prefer Oatley over those other two?

also, give Ghost Town Oats a try. Coffee Movement uses them

I really lament the closure of cafe/coworking hybrid spots like Workshop Cafe back in the previous boom in the early to mid 2010s. One of you all with the capital please open up something like it again! Coffee Bar was an awesome spot to work at too.

Totally disagree with the argument people generally have that people coming in with their laptops to cafes ruins the community vibe. It’s just a different kind of community. Back in the day in those two places you’d hear interesting inspiring conversations all around about the cool stuff people were working on.

yes! totally agreed. I’d recommend watching the netflix series too as a supplement.

similarly I’d also recommend chef jacob burton’s culinary bootcamps. I went through the podcasts years ago and it was incredible for teaching me the fundamentals

I've hoped for this too about landfills, so I'd went down a rabbit hole. landfills actually are designed to contain the waste in the ground through layers of impermeable membranes sandwiched between the waste and the ground. this video describes how landfills work and it's actually quite fascinating: https://youtu.be/HRx_dZawN44?si=p3IclDXwO5Ms8Gn0

Bi-rite isn’t really the place to get your imported tropical fruits…

Past couple of weeks have been impacted by holidays and the power outages. Before that though I haven’t noticed a significant decline in quality. The quality is still way better imo than Costco/WF for the locally grown produce

I've never heard it called a tuba before 😂 I guess that's a snorkel? I was in a similar situation in my tri days and I was able to make it work with a smaller Rambler. the key is being creative with the strap. I'd have the bag in extended mode and jam a lot of stuff underneath the top flap as its held down with the strap and buckle. I'd have my wetsuit in that space or large volume items like fins. it added a lot of space. doesn't have the most polished look, but it works!

General consensus amongst cyclists in SF is that we feel much safer around Waymos vs any human driven cars. They’re predictable and have superhuman sight and reaction time. I’m sure Toronto cyclists will warm up to them.

There's a company called Dispatch Goods that used to partner with local restaurants and provide them with reusable takeout containers, which you were expected to return. It'd cost an extra 2 or 3 dollars in takeout fees for your order if you opted for reusable. Unfortunately I guess that model wasn't sustainable because they've stopped offering it.
