San Francisco is requesting assistance from the federal government due to an “unprecedented police staffing shortage” in the liberal California city.
Isn't that a job for the state National Guard?
Bob Lee, creator of Cash App and former CTO of Square, stabbed to death
Bob Lee, the chief product officer at MobileCoin, was killed in a fatal stabbing in San Francisco.
On Tuesday morning, at 2:35 a.m., the San Francisco Police Department responded to a report of a stabbing near the 300 block of Main Street in SoMa. He was taken to a hospital but succumbed to his injuries.
Shortly after, NBC Bay Area reported that the victim of the stabbing was Bob Lee, 43. MobileCoin confirmed the information in a statement sent to Bloomberg and ABC7 News.
Before joining MobileCoin, Bob Lee worked at Google for the first few years of Android, focusing on core library development. He then joined Square, the payment company that later became Block, to develop its Android app. He became the company’s first CTO and also created Cash App.
Question is, is this another crypto assassination. He was killed outside his condo, indicating he was followed, studied and stalked. CryptoCide is now a thing along with Arkancide etc. Curious minds would like to know.
The news and the numbers are grim for Downtown San Francisco’s office market—and no one can say with any certainty where the bottom is.
In the first quarter of the year, office vacancies were the highest ever recorded, according to real estate broker CBRE. The firm estimated a 29.5% vacancy rate last quarter, substantially higher than rates seen during the dot-com bust and Great Recession and a seven-fold increase from the start of 2020.
Real estate analysts are expecting vacancies to tick up further as leases—including a major glut of shorter-term subleases—expire in the coming years. More dominos could fall if building owners, faced with lower revenues, decide to hand over their properties back to lenders, many of whom are already-distressed regional banks.

The push to return to the office full time has began in many companies. I know 2 which completely reneged on any previously promised "hybrid schedule" or "flex work" or whatever and making everybody come to the office 5 days per week no exceptions. Even people who were 100% remote before the whole coof thing are now required to come in.
For the 2023 season, the San Francisco Giants chose “Nothing Like It” as the slogan for their advertising campaign.
Coincidentally, there’s nothing like wearing an officially licensed hat that misspells the team’s home city.
The “Pro Standard Black 2012 World Series Old English Snapback Hat” can be found on the official MLB Shop. Above the typical interlocking “SF” logo, the words “San Fransico”—a misspelling of San Francisco—are spelled out in an old English font.
Scott acknowledged the department's staffing crisis, saying it is at least 500 officers short. Jenkins promised accountability and pushed for a collective effort.
Suspect arrested in brutal assault of former San Francisco Fire Commissioner Don Carmignani
SAN FRANCISCO -- A brutal and brazen attack on former San Francisco Fire Commissioner Don Carmignani outside his mother's Marina District home has left him battling for his life and neighbors on edge.
According to friends, Carmignani was leaving the family home on Magnolia Street between Buchanan and Laguna Streets on Wednesday when he was approached by three men.
"Last night at 7pm in the marina district at Laguna and Chestnut Street, a friend and former San Francisco Commissioner was brutally beaten by a group of homeless people in front of his home," Joe Alioto Veronese, a prominent lawyer and friend, posted on Twitter. "He is at SF general fighting for his life. Pray4Him."
Carmignani was beaten with a pipe leaving him with severe head injuries including a fractured skull. He was rushed to San Francisco General and underwent emergency surgery. His condition has not been released.
Cash App creator Bob Lee moved out of San Francisco because he thought the city was 'deteriorating' shortly before he was stabbed there, friend says

So what's it gonna be?
Do you think the mayor is gonna have the guts to do some mass layoffs or is he gonna hit the tax donkeys up for some extra taxes?
Salesforce, one of the largest companies in the Bay Area, continued to vacate San Francisco this week by completely moving out of the Salesforce East tower, with all of their formerly occupied floors going to lease.

Lol, Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff is dangerously woke, and it seems like it's coming back to bite him.
If he goes the layoff route, he ain't got much time to get the notices out. I doubt his tax collectors are gonna come up with the coin on such short notice from the taxpayers.
Marc Benioff is dangerously woke
What do you mean he, white man?

A bit PC here, eh? Was the artist afraid to make the looters the correct ethnicity?
Downtown San Francisco is at risk of collapsing — and taking much of the Bay Area with it.
Experts say post-pandemic woes stemming from office workers staying home instead of commuting into the city could send San Francisco into a “doom loop” that would gut its tax base, decimate fare-reliant regional transit systems like BART and trap it in an economic death spiral.
Who could have predicted such a fate?
The remaining are not going to stop voting liberal Democrat. Look at how Chicago voted for mayor recently.
