"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

Only three showed up, and the rest were ordered to be removed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Atkinson said the roughly 800 people removed is an “incredibly high” number, compared to the five to ten people per docket who miss their appointments, out of hundreds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the SFBA does not currently have the exact number of removals, Atkinson said the figure is likely an undercount, since not all removal hearings had a court observer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It looks like they’re just trying to deny people the right to apply for asylum by finding out procedural ways to get their cases dismissed or thrown out,” Atkinson said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kathryn Mattingly, press secretary for the U.S. Department of Justice’s Executive Office for Immigration Review, declined to comment on the number of cases and said staff reductions have not affected EOIR productivity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KQED’s \u003c/em>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/author/tychehendricks\">\u003cem>Tyche Hendricks\u003c/em>\u003c/a>\u003cem> contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

And during the summer months, known as “pupping season,” human-coyote interactions can increase.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But even though a coyote that’s protecting its young may seem threatening, the animals are unlikely to actually get aggressive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://bayareacoyote.org/\">Many local agencies, researchers and jurisdictions are working together\u003c/a> to manage coyote populations and help educate residents on the animals and their behaviors.

So when a coyote meets a dog, “it’s seeing: ‘This is a threat to myself and to my baby,’” Parker-Shames said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s why coyotes will often go after dogs, even if they’re afraid of the humans nearby.

After moving to San Francisco a year ago, the 24-year-old was inspired to sketch more of the beautiful architecture he passes while biking through his neighborhood near Haight Street.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He considered going for a walk or a ride for inspiration, but thought better of it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t want to draw a seven out of 10 building. I want the best,” Kulpati said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead, he scraped images of 10,000 buildings from Google Maps, used AI to ensure each was only displayed in a single front-facing image, and coded a website before blasting out a link on X — “which, arguably, is even more effort,” Kulpati said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The site is one of the latest in a growing wave of tech experiments designed by young San Francisco programmers, many of whom are using AI to help create gratuitous online projects that can spread quickly across social media.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=arts_13965882 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/10/carn-st-1020x678.png']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last year, Kulpati was among a group of more than a dozen friends who designed a monthlong, citywide scavenger hunt called \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13978335/pursuit-new-scavenger-hunt-san-francisco-2025-phone-number\">PURSUIT\u003c/a>.

This presumably includes San Francisco voters and entrepreneurs who feel Big Tech has thwarted their interests in conversations over legislation and regulation in Sacramento and Washington.

It’s the kind of threat that might make less technologically sophisticated consumers grateful for Apple’s app review process or Google’s spam filters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Tan waved away the concern that the BASED Act might make average consumers more vulnerable as a classic Big Tech talking point. Instead, he argued, AI is so democratizing that “having a truly secure computing environment is now in the hands of the end user,” a claim that may land differently for San Francisco voters who aren’t techies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",
