San Francisco's latest walking tour takes people past cats in windows, and apparently, the demand is enormous. Nearly 100 people gathered Saturday for a neighborhood “catwalk,” a free afternoon stroll past the homes of local cats, all volunteered by their owners for a moment in the spotlight. The cats, by all accounts booked and busy, had become local celebrities without lifting a paw. Organizer Lora Lafon told SFGATE the idea began with a Reddit thread inspired by a similar event in Minneapolis. More than 50 households across San Francisco signed up, and interest quickly outgrew what a single afternoon could accommodate. The inaugural walk was capped at 100 people, leaving another 406 on the waitlist and 388 more expressing interest. “We're such a big dog city (love dogs too) that it's been really sweet to see how proud the cat owners are when people stop to admire their babies in the window,” Lafon said. Fortunately for the city's aspiring cat admirers, more walks are in the works, both in San Francisco and potentially across the Bay Area.

When I broke the story that imprisoned Elizabeth Holmes and Billy Evans were secretly forming a new startup to get back into the medical device industry, Evans fought me hard over Holmes’ involvement, saying she was on the outside of it and not an advisor. Which is why it was quite striking when, minutes into You Can See Everything, Fielder captures Holmes making calls about the new startup…. npr.org/2025/05/10/nx-s1-539…

Today, Governor Kathy Hochul announced the launch of @joinpursuit AI Jobs Institute, a new training hub in Long Island City, Queens. By 2032, it will serve up to 40,000 New Yorkers and build pathways into AI careers. It's backed by $10M in public investment from New York State, the Queens Borough President's Office, and NYC partners, plus @Googleorg @OpenAI , @AnthropicAI , @WellsFargo , and others. I'm honored to join the National Advisory Council as a founding member. It's chaired by former U.S. Secretary of Education Dr. Miguel Cardona, with leaders across government, education, tech, finance, and workforce development. I've supported Pursuit for years. They help New Yorkers without a degree or a tech network move from low-wage work into six-figure tech careers. AI is creating new jobs faster than training systems can keep up, and the people who usually get passed over should share in the gains. An inclusive AI workforce is 100% the work needed right now. Excited to help bring this model beyond New York, including Miami and ATL. Congrats to Nick Simmons and the whole Pursuit team! pursuit.org/blog/ai-jobs-ins…

In today's @nytimes Backstory newsletter, I talk to Amy Chozick about the new Elizabeth Holmes documentary and Holmes's dispute over a quote from Chozick's NYT profile of her. The movie brings up the quote several times as it assesses Holmes's veracity. nytimes.com/2026/10/22/insid…
