Tech workers don't live out here in significant numbers. They are way more common in the South Bay than the Fairfield area. IMO.

Yeah, let's spend money to move offices to a worse location. More dangerous commute, more traffic, worse weather, worse neighboring cities and more air traffic,.

The developers don't need to make it that appealing. It's close enough to San Francisco and Sacramento while also being next to an airbase. The housing demand in the area is already high. They will be filled quickly no matter what. My bigger concern is what happens to Fairfield, I'm not sure if this will have a positive impact and I fear to see what a worse Fairfield would look like.

This isn't all that close to SF. It's about 45 min- 1 hour away. I doubt they are going to alter existing highways that have the comforting title of Blood Alley because of all the fatal crashes.

Public transportation out in this area is basically non-existent. We got some buses, and that's it. The closest BART(Bay Area Rapid Transit aka subway) station to where they are building this is concord about 30 min away, with the ride into the city taking another 45. It's on the cusp of being too far away to commute to the city.

It's being built in a drought area, and the neighboring town has already said we can't help with water.

I can already see the unofficial nickname Tennesseans will give it.

Great as long as they don't figure out how to knock the bowl over and eat off of the floor. Went from about 5-10 seconds to around 30-45.

Why is it such a a leap that a man who has made threats against someone would act violently towards law enforcement?

It wasn't just Biden, I take it you haven't seen his Facebook yet?

It worse than that. According to Vice, they found his Facebook.

These were causing the bulk of Russian losses.

No, it's mines and artillery.

deplete the supplies and munitions that the Ukrainians have in order to make an offensive

Dude this started out with Ukrainians making molotovs. Now they are getting shipments of Bradleys and multiple types of tanks. The west is capable of sustaining Ukraines ammo needs for a while. The US has already went from producing 14k shells a month to 24 with the goal of 85k a month by 2028. That's just the US, now factor in all the European countries doing the same.

You need to stop listening to whatever sources you are reading.

No resistance? They sieged Chernihiv from February 25-March 31.

You count Bakhmut as a Russian victory? Nobody won Bakhmut, Russian expended a massive ammout of manpower and resources for nothing. The front didn't change in any meaningful way, hell the fact they are struggled so much to reclaim a town they captured in 2014 should tell you how bad things are for Russia. Seriously dude they drafted 300,000 and still the only way they made progress was by throwing prisoners at it.

Also spoiler alert they have been on the offensive this entire time. The only competent people have been removed from power. The one to order defensive lines made and mines laid backed Pringlez. Pringlez is also gone now so yeah I don't really see this offensive playing out any way.
