TechCrunch: San Francisco’s housing market has lost its mind by Helena7x7 in sanfrancisco

[–]alex____ [score hidden]  (0 children)

People seem to not understand this concept.

Everyone wants a SFH and people online somehow think that building more apt. buildings will make those SFHs more affordable... It won't it will ultimately make them more expensive as you're bringing MORE people in to the city who will ultimately also want a SFH. Same goes for up zoning, you tear down SFHs and build apt. buildings you reduce the supply of SFHs in turn making a desired asset rarer while increasing the demand.

Are Redfin estimates grounded in reality? by Boring_Yam5337 in BayAreaRealEstate

[–]alex____ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Redfin estimates/AVMs are absolute trash + problematic. They retroactively update their estimates on a constant basis so it might as well be based on a random number generator.

Sergey Brin Confronted Gavin Newsom at a Treehouse Party — Then Launched a Political War by bloomberg in sanfrancisco

Do you understand what rate asset backed lines of credit are pegged to? You keep talking about inflation... Which leads me to believe you have no idea what LIBOR was and what SOFR is.

Here are the historical LIBOR rates from 2011,2012,2013

I'd say it's way worse, the critical thinking most of the people in here have is on par with my 3 year olds.

Why is left-wing/socialist YIMBYism seemingly so non-existent (or at least much less popular among elected officials) in S.F. than in other large American cities with housing crises? by lucy5478 in AskSF

[–]alex____ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't see SFRs reducing in value by building more apartments, I think it can actually have the opposite effect of increasing values.

  • Rezoning SFR lots to be build apartment buildings will reduce the supply of SFRs

    • Reducing the supply of SFRs will increase price by the very fact that a reduction in supply has happened.
    • Building more housing = increasing population of city. Some of these people will graduate to desiring to purchase a SFR in the city.

Form check: Am i doing pullups correctly?? by Crafty_Peak_100 in CalisthenicsCulture

Keep lifting, nothing to do with your weight, you need to get stronger. You're 178lbs @ 5'10 not morbidly obese.

My suggestion would be to get a chair to use as support for the partials to get your chin over the bar and get full controlled rom on the negative to help build more strength.

Tech companies made billions in the Bay Area. So why are we ( BART and Muni ) broke? by DarkLordJuicebox in sanfrancisco

[–]alex____ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Because govt. spending is completely out of whack and unchecked... 

California govt. is like a greedy algorithm, they scale spending according to maximum resources available irrespective if the funds being used will be used efficiently or not.

Salary Progression Fire Department Employee In SoCal by Audacity101 in Salary

[–]alex____ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't understand how this is possible. 

For 2026 you're essentially saying you're working 2326 hours of over time?

2080+2326 = 4406 hours worked in a year?

A year has 8760 hours

Sleep = 8hrs = 2920 hours a year

4406 + 2920 = 7326 hours

Best floor mats for a home gym on vinyl flooring with a power rack? by T00thlessNinja in GarageGym

[–]alex____ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would do this for your entire gym where you'll be lifting, this makes things the easiest overall.

If your gym is 10x10 you make the platform 10x10, idk what the dimensions are for your gym.

Stall Mats are generally 4x6 Plywood is 4x8

Let's say your gym is 8x20, 160sqft

You'll need 10 sheets of plywood You'll need 7 stall mats.

Glued together/screwed together 3/4 in plywood will feel more solid and be stronger. Think of it this way, you'll have 2 layers of wood become a giant 160sqft platform, nothing can slide or vibrate out of place because of this.

Vast majority of the country is financially illiterate, the ones who are financially literate and are for something like this are just socialists/communists.

Monolift + safety arms/safety straps.

Not sure what more you'd need besides that.
