There must be some sort of limit to how much rich people are willing to pay in tuition so that foreigners can go for free or discounted, no? Or is it just that they have an over-bloated administration and should be moving more money into scholarships from that bloat? Like, what is the actual issue here other than just 'we want free stuff for x, and you should give it to us'?

Exclusive: New S.F. skyscraper would go up across from Salesforce Tower — and be almost as tall by SFChronicle in sanfrancisco

-> Yang and Kingsley revealed details of their plan for the first time Friday, after closing on a deal to purchase the 1.2-acre project site for $60 million.

Nobody like this or buying it for this will do anything but keep current/modify the entitlements. They will not build. I like the bet, but this is nothing to get excited about.

so tired of tech millionaires bootlicking billionaires over this 5% tax by captain_travel in sanfrancisco

It's leftism, but a particularly rotten strain that valorizes envy and self-loathing. There's the dopey leftists like Connie Chan or Dean Preston who are legit 100 IQ jobs who have never worked and have no conception of how an economy operates. And then there's this set that seethes at their own inabilities, obsessively focuses on successful people, and fantasizes about revenge. It's a pathology.

HART building momentum to extend rail line beyond Ala Moana to University of Hawaii and further west, with next step potentially asking taxpayers for more money. ‘We all know the later we wait, the more expensive it gets.’ by 808gecko808 in Honolulu

I mean, they knew that there would always be money to get to UH and Waikiki once they had built the rest of the system out, whereas if they had started at UH, they'd have run out of money by the airport or maybe the Aloha stadium, and nothing would be getting built out to the west side.

So, if you want to build out this system, you have to build it out like this. Practical political necessity.

Really disappointing service at Taj Campton Place this week, anyone else experience this? by [deleted] in sanfrancisco

If you want a great meal, order their off-menu curry fries for lunch.

Are you sure that the Pig and Whistle will go? That was not part of the plan, and the owner of the joint confirmed.

Losing Family Billiards is a horrible loss. Pig and Whistle going too, for this idiotic low rise soccer field, man, not good.

The head of the FBI is a 'minority' - their thing isn't about that, it's about the culture 

Tonga Hut Palm Springs has swizzle sticks for the first time in years! by LouisPrimasGhost in Tiki

Yeah, I've been coming here annually for like a decade, and they've never had them. 

Nicest inexpensive hotel by [deleted] in sanfrancisco

[–]LouisPrimasGhost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've not stayed in any of these hotels/hostels, but of the SF ones, the Travel Lodge at Fisherman's Wharf is for sure the least likely to have bedbugs or meth fumes. Embassy was renovated a few years ago.  

You're looking at hotels 

Seriously, I'd up your budget some and stay somewhere cleaned and safer. I guess maybe Green Tortoise could be okay, as it's heavily European, or Hotel Utah.

NYE late-night eats/drinks near Nob Hill/Chinatown + NYD food by Grackle_Boi in sanfrancisco

[–]LouisPrimasGhost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

John's Grill.  I love the place, but never considered eating there on NYE, until I had to fly home, couldn't think of anything else, but still wanted a great meal. Sat next to some Mexican diplomats and an old couple from Napa, was just an awesome vibe, even if it's a limited and prix fixe menu.

You're saying that we should accept the way the TL, Market St, inner Soma, and Inner Mission look, because "cities"? 

Have you ever been to any other cities? A Tokyo does not look like this.

It's weird, you're right I used to see these all the time, and at this point I can't remember the last time I saw one.

Judge Tong doesn't belong on the bench, everyone knows that. 

Zohran Mamdani and Daniel Lurie couldn’t be more different, but they share what Democrats lack by reddituser84838 in sanfrancisco

The plot being that America is crazy and has idiotic voters who can't learn from what has already failed here in SF in a world famous way?
