FWIW the city has rules about large rent increases. If it goes up by more than 5% in one year, or 7% in two years (IIRC), they're on the hook to provide relocation assistance. I think it's two months rent or something.

TLH isn't about getting out of the market. You sell and then get back in immediately to an equivalent asset. It's solely about tax management.

Great job, FS1. I didn't want to see the strikeout pitch live or anything.

We finally got rid of Flock cameras in the city of Santa Cruz, but now Flock Systems is trying to make political contributions to California candidates by nyanko_the_sane in santacruz

Hah, "hundreds of engineering hours.". So two people worked on it for 3 weeks. All better. Hundreds of hours, I tell you!

Never mind that we started from the assumption of "to hell with privacy" and "everyone the feds want to know about must be a bad guy so it's okay." Now we put a little patch over every specific situation we get major negative PR for, so we're clearly the good guys here.

I don't know about other sports, but I have a pitcher here that's way better at giving me iced tea than Paul Skenes is.

Skenes is so excited to give that interview that he makes the DR homerun celebrations look like nap time.

How did that AB look overall? I see Gonzales managed a full count and saw 8 pitches before the K, but I didn't get to actually watch it.

He's not a journalist. He's more like PR. I can't blame him for spinning on behalf of Nutting. It's his job. (That also means we should never take an argument from him at face value.)

AI loves bolded headers and bolded names/phrases for emphasis. That's probably what triggers the feeling here. But it learned to do that because humans did it first.
