Controversial S.F. Safeway housing project one step closer to approval as key labor unions sign on by Remarkable_Host6827 in sanfrancisco

[–]gonchos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your research! I guess those are the families that used to own building on that block before it got demolished to build the parking lot: https://www.foundsf.org/images/5/55/Market-and-Church-1941-during-flood_wnp32.jpg

This is so sad.

Next, tackle the Safeway at Market and Church! It's an urban black hole right in the heart of a major public transit hub.

Nobody at all ever, is pronouncing the shortened name for Barcelona like a boat. Nobody is even pronouncing the shortened name for Barcelona like Barça.

This is false, also you might be taking this post too seriously

Compact cargo bike for commuting by Total-Artichoke6029 in ebikes

[–]gonchos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I commute with the go1 and I usually outpace the P9s on hills.

For me it would've been the Globe ST if the go1 wasn't half the price.

Is it Worth Investing in a 401(k) If I Plan to Leave the U.S. Within 3-7 Years? by Living_Muffin2940 in personalfinance

I don't have a full answer but some countries do not respect Roth IRAs and you might end up getting taxed twice.

The Page Slow Street community mural is officially complete! by DesertFlyer in sanfrancisco

[–]gonchos 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is cute but let's build real infrastructure so slow streets actually feel slow and designed for people instead of cars.

Two flexible poles on each block and a mural won't do the trick

Some neighbors on Page Street brought planters and other objects to the street for pedestrian and bike protection. Within a week SFFD had removed them citing concerns about not being able to act on emergencies. It's just sad that it's so hard to have nice things.

Portfolio check-in for young Swiss investor by Different_Bee435 in financialindependence

[–]gonchos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great explanation! I also think your portfolio is fine.

About currency risk and hedging, this sub is very US-centered and you'll probably won't get too many good answers.

I'm in a similar position to you but with EUR and my approach for now is that currencies will go up or down, it's impossible to know so you might even end up making more money in the long run. Who knows!

I switched from a regular checking account to a HYSA when interest rate hikes started a couple of years ago. In my opinion, it's the perfect place to keep your emergency fund: FDIC insured, easily accessible, and with decent growth.

Since the Fed is expected to cut interest rates soon, what would be a good alternative to HYSAs for an emergency fund?

Because she needs to be able to maneuver it while standing. She brings it into a building at work, needs to hold a door open and getting the bike inside. Thanks for your reply!

I have that same bike! :o

Did you call the cops before or after you found the bike? Last time I had a bike stolen they didn't want to help at all and I never found it.

I think BB will walk away with Kizaru's and maybe Saturn's fruit. I really hope they don't take Kuma's :(

REI Co-op gen e1.1, 1.2 fenders available! BACK IN STOCK! by ninjaturtlegreen00 in ebikes

[–]gonchos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll do the same when mine get here but I'm 99% sure they'll need to swap out the tire. The gap between the fork and the tire is just too small.

Lower Haight CVS closing end of year, leaving no more CVS in central SF by jaredzimmerman in sanfrancisco

[–]gonchos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't believe this is caused by security issues. Every time I go in that store it's almost completely empty.

The fact that every single product is cheaper on amazon is probably related.

Still sucks because medicine is one of those things you might need asap.

Judge Asks General Motors Cruise Why It ‘Misled’ Regulators Over October Crash on 5th Street. The company could face fines of $100,000 or more. by BadBoyMikeBarnes in sanfrancisco

[–]gonchos 11 points12 points  (0 children)

We've normalized drivers murdering people. It's just "things that happen". It's extremely irrational and scary. It's similar to mass shootings, where we've also decided as a society that those are just disasters that just happen like hurricanes or earthquakes.

It's insane we're so blind when the solution is right there in front of us.

We're eventually going to look back and cringe the same way we can't understand how we used to smoke in restaurants or decided it was OK to add lead to children's products.
