Important for California. (And a request for readers to repost in order to provide the greatest exposure.)
Everyone who develops in California is well aware that California utility companies have abdicated their responsibility to provide electrical power to new housing projects and commercial projects in a timely fashion.
California utility companies are no longer in the category of dysfunctional. They have become non-functional.
Project openings have been delayed 2-3 years in many cases with completed units but no power. ADU's in Los Angeles wait 18 mos for electrical power. And things are getting worse, not better
Much needed housing is delayed. Commercial projects that provide employment are delayed
Worse still is the fact that investors are now well aware of the problem, have seen its impact on recent projects they invested in and have therefore made the astute but unfortunate decision to not invest.
A working group has been assembled to address the problem with the goal of passing state legislation in 2027. Legislators in Sacramento are well aware of the issue, are beyond frustrated and understand the need for a legislative fix with real teeth.
In this regard we are looking to amass a data base of utility company "horror stories" where projects suffered delays and additional costs as the result.
This link is to the Housing Action Coalition website and a short survey. I'd ask that developers and general contractors who have projects that have been negatively impacted by utility company performance to fill it out. The information will be assembled into a database so that legislators in Sacramento can all understand the true magnitude of the problem. Thank you.

@venturetwins@omooretweets Highly disagree on the buying online jump, there’s research that pretty plainly states retail market mechanics are mostly about the experience of shopping and nothing to do with getting the thing you want. Maybe for logistics or supply chain but those are all relationship driven.
Fable 5.2 shows substantially improved skills in controlling physical robots, even on tasks it has never explicitly been trained to do.
On RoboDojo, a benchmark with a simulated two-arm robot, it outperformed other models and most AI systems built to control robots.
