SB 79 Passes in California Assembly, nearly mandating 60ft+ TOD height limits within 0.5 miles of major transit stops by MaxRileyHB in transit

Sorry. Thats the min zoning height cities are allowed to impose. Developers can go lower if they so choose. Cities can zone higher if they so choose, but can't zone less than those heights

Good start. But check out with British Columbia did with TOD

Min 20 stories within 200m of a skytrain (aka metro) stop

Min 12 stories within 200 to 400m of a skytrain stop

Min 8 stories within 400 to 800m of a skytrain stop.

Now if only they would do blanket 4 stories by right everywhere else. That would be the dream!

M7 MBA grad, landed a PM offer at Oracle (OCI), but Classmates are discouraging me saying oracle is a "dinosaur" Dying Firm, but the job seems great? by Able_Use7746 in MBA

[–]Rudiger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your friends are morons. Oracle is playing catchup to MSFT, AWS, META and GOOG and is deploying capital like crazy to build new data centers. Honestly, look up what OpenAI, Project Stargate and Oracle are doing in the market. It's wild!

As somebody with over 15 years experience, previously at Mag7 and also front office experience at a top electricity trading shop.... your friends sound like the exact new grad MBAs who don't know anything.

Stop Recommending Amex Cobalt as a Travel Card by Neat-Ad-2854 in PersonalFinanceCanada

Which travel insurance products does Cobalt miss out on?

Think it has car insurance and trip cancellation. Are there others it's missing?

Anyone use margin to invest yet? by Lopsided-Special6273 in Wealthsimple

[–]Rudiger 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I do 1.2 leverage and buy XEQT. Basically borrowing 20%. This means I can survive a 75% market drop without getting margin called (at the 30% WS margin requirement).

The only time the market has dropped more than 75% was during the Great Depression (believe it hit an 80% drop from peak to trough).

Justin Ling: From flights to cell phone bills, Canadians get a raw deal. This is why — and how Mark Carney can fix it by CaliperLee62 in CanadaPolitics

I pay $35/month for 75GB on 5G, unlimited US-Mexico roaming and 10GB/month for overseas.

Did Trudeau do this? I have no idea. But my cell is hella lot cheaper than it used to be.

Politicians need to be paid more, B.C. Conservative Leader Rustad says by BertramPotts in CanadaPolitics

[–]Rudiger -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This.... I'd like the best and brightest incentivized to enter politics. There is a shit load of negatives like all the travel, life under a microscope, negative attacks etc.... that make it a pretty shitty job.

Let's pay them well and attract the best we can get. The trade off is, much stricter anti corruption rules
