#1 is hilariously expensive. He also seems to be unaware that the reason SF needs fewer cops than other cities is that it is geographically small as gently caress. TBF, increase in police on the street with an actual focus on community engagement (LOL) isn't a terrible idea if you have nothing else to spend the money on. Also, this would be controlled by the city council. #2 "W/privacy protection obviously." Say hello to the California PRA, which is extremely powerful and won't abide by that. Also, the cops won't either! #3 SF had a bunch of bait car cases tossed out because of some serious fuckery. The courts are a little suspicious of that these days. Good luck! #4 is both illegal and unconstitutional. If he could get over that pesky 8th amendment (and the california state constitution) issues, he has to get over the fact that bail is government by state law, which mayors have no say in, bail is set by judges, who are appointed by the governor and re-elected by the people, and release of inmates is governed by the sheriff, who is directly elected. Note that San Francisco has one of the best funded and hardest charging Public Defender's offices in the nation, so you won't get away with poo poo even if you only target poor people. Also, the DA's office is elected, famously liberal and isn't going to request no bail on every loving person who breaks a window to steal a cell phone. He may actually know less about the job, and what powers the position he seeks has, than Donald Trump. edit: I can solve car break ins in a stupid way too: Make it illegal to leave your car with a cell phone visible and make it a mandatory tow to a locked facility. nm fucked around with this message at 01:38 on Mar 19, 2018 |

nerdz posted:the effects of all this won't be immediate, but they will surely have bad results for SV. it's not a surprise they're extremely concerned about this. Only the smallest companies. Anyone of any size scale has "international offices", which are often just corporate entities with people working from home or shared work spaces. nerdz posted:also as a previous immigrant, lol that you think the US is accessible or friendly at all to immigrants, especially compared to Canada and the EU, where most immigrants can find a country that speaks their language. Which is a part of why many companies have this arrangement. For people you want to keep around you have somewhere they can go back to the EU/South America/Singapore/wherever for a "visa trip" and keep working remotely or with a smaller team.

My favourite is still how he casually suggests 'double number of cops'. Like dude if you're going to brand yourself a this investment genius then maybe you should try to at least have a basic understanding of how labour costs work and the scale of what you're suggesting.

It's not his ability to choose winners that makes him ideal for politics, it's for having the privilege of being able to invest in bad ideas and not end up homeless at the end. Here's a free political slogan for you, Mayor Jason: "I can afford to be an idiot!"

There was also that thing six or seven years ago where some scummy reality show paid off the SFPD to lure people in with a bait car. They were just leaving the car running in the middle of the street with the keys in the ignition and running away. There was this one guy tried to move the car out of the way and got arrested. He said he had proof that he wasn't stealing the car, specifically that the show had footage of him on camera and audio from multiple angles telling his friend that he was going to go move the car out of the way. The show had already aired the show with him as a criminal, and they said that they didn't have to release the unaired footage to the defense counsel because of the shield law. The whole thing turned into a big mess, and the courts wound up smacking the show down hard. Then when the show released all the footage, a bunch of other cases got dismissed because there turned out to be police misconduct that was also caught on camera. Edit: turns out the show was literally called Bait Car. Tobermory fucked around with this message at 11:10 on Mar 19, 2018 |

The stages between manual and autonomous are way more dangerous than either. https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2018/jan/24/self-driving-cars-dangerous-period-false-security quote:What’s left is a when cars are being augmented incrementally with automated technologies such as obstacle detection and lane centering. In theory, these can reduce the risk of crashes, but they are not failsafe. As a Tesla spokeswoman put it: “Autopilot is intended for use only with a fully attentive driver.”

This is the road the accident was on: https://www.google.com/maps/@33.440...!7i16384!8i8192 some parts of the road there is really clear places to cross that aren't crosswalks, but there is also a bunch of places you are stepping directly into traffic from behind a tree, it's probably pretty impossible to say at this point if it is or isn't uber's fault.

Do pedestrians have automatic right of way in CA if not on a crosswalk? Hope the person is okay. Edit: Just checked the news. The person was killed. Also it was in AZ.

If you are going 60 it takes 3-4 seconds to stop, period. You can't will yourself to stop faster no matter what. The brakes just can't do it.
