If you have deeper pockets it's less of a gamble but if you a start up or smaller company it could wreck your budget and planning. That's why I said, sane companies want some kind of stability. Everyone has complaints and wishes that some things were looser but at least you know what to expect.

I think this is going to be devasting to smaller companies. What if a new reg comes up, do you start early to comply so you can manage $/time or wait to see if the courts undo it? Then you "wasted" $ and your competitors didn't. What if it gets upheld? Now we need to spend more $$$ to rush to comply

Painfully. I think this is going to backfire on corporations, this can lead to a lot of chaos - having guardrails is actually helpful. Now they face an uncertain regulatory environment. Sane corporations also want stability.

I don't think people fully appreciate how vaguely written a lot of laws are. It's not uncommon for them to articulate basic concepts of what they are for and who is responsible for enforcement and leave the details to the Executive agencies. It's basically open season on a ton of regulations.

The good bagel scene is fairly new in the bay, I would say it started to peak about 5-6 years ago. If your experience is much older than that then it's not representative of the newer places.

I no longer live in East Bay anymore but Berkeley/Oakland has quite a few: Sal's Deli, Beauty's/Wise son's (owned by the same people), Poppy's, and Bageltopia. There is a new one in Albany (CA not NY) called Hella Bagel I haven't tried yet but will next time I am visiting.

I indicated this in another reply but I did intentionally pick that article to troll people a bit. The more important point was that the bagel scene has vastly improved and a fair number of towns in the bay now actually good bagels now. I still defend my Montreal style bagel opinion though.

It might not be very accurate to refer to Napa as suburbs but trying to illustrate that its percolating out to small cities by using a name people know. Anyway I mostly pulled that NYT article because I did want to clown people a little bit. Bagels go hard in NYC in a way they will never in CA.

This is mostly true and the bay will never have the saturation NYC has but... "hunting down a good bagel" is becoming less of a thing. More places are popping up, Berkeley has almost 1 per hood. SF has quite a few. Artisan Bagel places are popping up in the suburbs too - Napa has 2 I know of

Unpopular opinion: Montreal bagels are better than NY style and in Montreal you can get fresh wood fired bagels till midnight.

Even more unpopular opinion: the Bay Area has quite a few bagel places that even NYers consider to be quite good. www.nytimes.com/2021/03/08/d...
