@jukan05 You’re getting tourist/IG/tiktok recommendations on burritos. Skip those and go to Al Carajo, Chuy’s Fiesta, or El Patron in the Mission.

@signulll @girdley Probably the 409A valuation, which sets the fair market value of private companies for tax purposes already. (note: I also think taxing unrealized gains is a bad idea)

@_abbie_watson_ @DanielleFong Any splitting that has Korea, China, Taiwan, Vietnam, Thailand, and parts of Japan together is unbeatable. You have to center on Taipei or something with a line separating Korea and Japan from each other.
