San Francisco was one of the original bitmap typefaces for the Apple Macintosh computer released in 1984. It was designed by Susan Kare to mimic the ransom note effect and was used in early Mac software demos and Apple company fliers. An official TrueType version was never made, and San Francisco was rendered obsolete with the arrival of System 7.
Saint Francis, by Hank Gillette, is a free TrueType font of similar design sometimes used as a surrogate on non-Apple systems.
San Francisco is an album by jazz vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson and saxophonist Harold Land, released on the Blue Note label in 1971. The album features a shift away from the usual hard bop-post-bop style pursued previously by Hutcherson and Land, and shifts towards jazz fusion. Some CD reissues features a different track listing and add a version of "A Night in Barcelona" remixed by Tokyo Ghetto Pussy.
The opening lyrics are as follows:
"San Francisco, open your Golden Gate
You'll let nobody wait outside your door
San Francisco, here is your wanderin' one
Saying I'll wander no more. "
The song is now a popular sentimental sing-along at public events such as the city's annual earthquake commemoration. It is one of two official city songs, along with "I Left My Heart in San Francisco."
Judy Garland included the song to her concert repertoire, with a new introduction that starts, "I never will forget Jeanette MacDonald; just to think of her it gives my heart a pang. I never will forget, how that brave Jeanette, just stood there in the ruins and sang. A-a-a-and sang..." She opened a late 1950s concert at the Cow Palace with her version. It was so well and tumultuously received that she sang it again as an encore. In her later career, her interpretation grew darker. She parodies Jeanette's happy performance gradually becoming more serious, climaxing at, "but the only bridge that's a real gone bridge is the bridge across the bay," often sung with desperation near the point of collapse.
San Francisco is a neo-grotesquesans-seriftypeface made by Apple Inc. It was first released to developers on November 18, 2014. It was used first as the system typeface of the Apple Watch, and later replaced Helvetica Neue as the system typeface of OS X and iOS with OS X El Capitan and iOS 9. It is also the system typeface of tvOS, starting with the 4th generation Apple TV. It is the first new typeface designed at Apple in nearly 20 years.
Variants
The San Francisco typeface has two variants: "SF" for OS X, iOS, and tvOS; and "SF Compact" for watchOS. The main difference is that the sides of letters with round shapes, such as o, e, and s, are round in SF, whereas they are flat in SF Compact. The flat sides allow the letters to have more space between them, thereby making the text more legible at small sizes, which is particularly important for the Apple Watch. Both SF and SF Compact each have two optical sizes: "display" for large and "text" for small text. Compared to display, the letters in text have larger apertures and more generous letter-spacing. The operating system automatically chooses the display optical size for sizes of at least 20 points, and text otherwise.
All 96 weekday trains and all 32 (Saturday) and 28 (Sunday) trains stop there. The station is in the Mission Bay/China Basin area, bordered on the north by Townsend Street, east by 3rd Street, west by 4th Street and south by King Street. It opened on June 21, 1975, replacing a station built in 1914 at 3rd and Townsend, one block away.
The Caltrain Downtown Extension project to the rebuilt Transbay Terminal includes the construction of an underground 4th and King station. The underground station will be next to the current station on the Townsend side. Several platforms on the current station will be retained as the terminal for non-electric trains, such as trains to Union City across Dumbarton Rail Bridge and trains to Gilroy.

Top 3 Pros & Cons for Living in San Francisco's Western Addition Neighborhood
A little-known neighborhood with a fascinating yet tragic history is San Francisco's Western Addition. Not known for much now, its Fillmore District was once the "Harlem of the West"!
This video is about the Western Addition neighborhood of San Francisco which sits where the historically black neighborhood of San Francisco used to be before it was razed for "redevelopment."
Sadly urban renewal destroyed Western Addition and not even some Eichler condos can save it.

AI in Healthcare: Will the Reality Match the Hype?
The 14th annual Lundberg Institute Lecture features Robert Wachter of UCSF and his predictions about what advances artificial intelligence will make, and will not make, in health care.
Why has health care not undergone the kind of digital transformation that has completely remade industries ranging from retail to entertainment to travel? Wachter will discuss health care’s bumpy road to digital nirvana, and why, to paraphrase Hemingway, generative AI may lead to medicine’s “gradually, then suddenly” moment.
Join us for a preview of the ideas Dr. Wachter discusses in his latest book on AI and health care.
This program is made possible by the Lundberg Institute.

A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE PANHANDLE & THE WESTERN ADDITION, Bonnie Spindler, The Victorian Specialist
Imagine San Francisco when it was just past its infancy. It had survived the ship-building boom and the gold and silver mining rushes. As the original city started to get denser, the city council decided it was time to annex more land into the city itself. They incorporated the lands west of Divisadero, a largely undeveloped series of sand dunes. Appropriately, they called it the Western Addition. At roughly the same time, they decided to create a 1000-acre park to rival Central Park in NYC. It was to have a Panhandle that stretched to Van Ness. When the citizens discovered that this plan would require the brand new Oak Street Fire Station and Sacred Heart Cathedral to be torn down, they protested, so the Panhandle ends where it does today, Baker St.
