  1. Re:Citation Needed on Google Co-Opts Whale-Watching Boat To Ferry Employees · · Score: 1

    Sharon Green is a very nice place, but it's an expensive housing complex for tech workers and entry level ibankers. That's fine. I'm saying that the Mission is becoming sharon green, and believe it or not people who aren't in those industries can't afford to live in the city.

    the mission is neither of the things you describe, the mission is becoming sharon green. also for crime I think you're thinking of the tenderloin, which is also becoming gentrified.

    is somebody who makes $75k/year poor and underprivelaged? no, but they can't afford SF. rule of thumb is rent should be 1/3 your gross income. so $3000/mo is $9000/mo gross income which is $108,000. Six figures for a 1br.

    I'm not saying help the poor and underprivelaged. I'm saying longtime residents are pissed and google sending employees by boat won't make a difference and they know that.

    You all are wrong. SF is building a shit ton of housing. half the city is cranes, especially downtown. the problem is they're all million dollar condos. believe it or not builders want to maximize their profits.

    Google is being purposefully obtuse here. The buses themselves aren't the problem. The problem is that the cheapest 1brs in SF cost $2800/month. it used to be that gentrification kicked out the poor. Now SF is becoming a city for the 1%, and the 99% can no longer afford to be there. an especially visible target are google and twitter kids in mission who turn a vibrant ethnic neighborhood into Sharon Green in palo alto.

    I see, so Angelina Jolie used to be an academy-award-winning actress, but now she's just Mrs. Pitt?

    She's an aging sack of bad plastic surgery who's been in too many terrible movies. A pretty good match for her hubby at that.

    That's why they didn't take each other's names :)

    But seriously son she's the mother of six children, so stop being a douche

    BTW...How do you think I figured out which direction North was?

    Sceptre Tech: just point it toward the north pole

    On the upside, Noam Chomsky will be overjoyed by this development; soon software systems will be developed to 'generate' hit books. Someone get Angelina (Mike Cook's, not Pitt's).

    We don't know who found the bug. If it was someone from the development team then this is equivalent to a closed source situation. Not an argument for open = better.

    I dislike astronomical distances because it's hard to imagine what they're like. 160,000 light years is 134,000 SSU (solar system units, the width of the solar system) or 1.6 GU (galactic units, the width of the galaxy). Hope this help!
