Published Aug 9, 2017 · 10:15 AM PDT / Updated Dec 29, 2018 · 4:13 PM PST

  • The fired Google software engineer who wrote that lengthy diatribe about how women aren't biologically suited for tech stuff, James Damore, apparently had a PhD in Systems Biology on his LinkedIn page that he recently downgraded to a Masters. [Business Insider]
  • Relatedly, conservatives have latched on to his biology background to suggest he knows what he's talking about when it comes to women and their biological shortcomings. And so now he's a free-speech martyr. [American Conservative][Slate]
  • Also, Damore filed a charge with the National Labor Relations Board which means he may have a federal case in court. [Wired]
  • Woman's photos, memories of late father stolen from car in San Francisco. [ABC 7]
  • The SFPD and other agencies did a massive sweep in a Bayview housing project Tuesday, executing 30 search warrants, and so far they've refused to comment on the raid. [ABC 7]
  • A toddler was found wandering the street in San Jose alone early this morning, and the boy's guardian has now been located. [CBS 5][ABC 7]
  • A multi-story construction crane came crashing down on a home in Campbell. [CBS 5]
  • The SFPUC becomes first city department to set a policy for drone use. [Examiner]
  • Three 15-y-o female shoplifters were arrested in Union Square after pepper-spraying three individuals who tried to stop them at the door of a store. [Examiner]
