My latest: California likes to think of itself as a cutting-edge lab for policy making, but as pedestrian deaths soar, it lags behind communities around the country that allow a tool to slow drivers: the humble speed camera.
Finally, that could change.

PSA: Line at @aboutKP SF vaccine clinic is LONG! Folks (like me) may have come today because of worries about pending strike Wednesday-Friday? It is moving, at least

I wrote a story about how a Montgomery County Maryland has for decades been building public housing under another name. It's a clever use of public money and beats private equity at their own game. Read on: nytimes.com/2023/08/25/busin…

We need to turn so much in the built environment today into something else: offices into homes, homes into offices, hotels into SROs, office parks into real neighborhoods, curb parking into transit lanes.

@Caltrain @CaltrainAlerts Monday at 6:28am- 22nd Street southbound platforms say it’s closed and all trains board on northbound side- accurate? No other signs/tweets to that effect

Amen, @anniefryman: “One of the most irresponsible things that you can do during a budget deficit like this is arbitrarily make decisions that disqualify your state from getting free money from elsewhere” @fmanjoo nytimes.com/2023/06/09/opini…

“Of the 1.2 million tickets the SFMTA writes every year, 92% are issued for behavior that doesn’t affect public safety, including staying too long at meters and not moving for street cleaning trucks.” @hknightsf @braitsch sfchronicle.com/sf/bayarea/h…
San Francisco’s decision to extend metered parking hours to weekday evenings and Sundays is the city’s most significant enforcement change since the 1950s.

@CaltrainAlerts Some (but not all) 22nd Street signs say SB platform closed, and to board on NB platform- true?
@CaltrainAlerts SB platform at 22nd Street is NOT closed, as we all discovered 🏃♂️🚂🥵 Please get those signs fixed!

My latest column: Have you heard of the new San Francisco Stair Challenge? Meet the woman who designed it — along with dozens of other routes through our beautiful city in her “walk lab.” I joined her to climb 1,500 steps and see hidden corners of SF. sfchronicle.com/sf/bayarea/h…

New Interview: I talked to Senator Debbie Stabenow about why she believes sexism is behind calls for Dianne Feinstein to resign, how much the personal wishes of public officials should matter, and Senator Feinstein’s mental state. newyorker.com/news/q-and-a/i…
Oh heck yeah @ScottAukerman/@ComedyBangBang! I recognize @TVsAndyDaly’s signature, and is the other one Jason Mantzoukas (aka @LilyYily)? Too cool!
