I feel like Santa Cruz has so many examples. Most recent being a group uses CEQA to delay wharf restoration and then wharf collapses before repairs can finish: www.mercurynews.com/2024/12/28/p...

Construction update. No idea what these huge walls are for or if they're temporary.

With this hack now you have to worry about daylight savings time transitions happening at the incorrect time!

Very interesting edge case! But I think there may be ambiguity on whether additional hours digits beyond just 2 could be accepted. The spec says one digit for hours is valid, so maybe more than 2 should be accepted as well? You should start a GitHub issue to discuss!

Somehow booked the less direct bus. It made a stop at Robert J Cabral station which has a different vibe than San Joaquin Street Station. I wondered about what history happened that made downtown Stockton into what it currently is like.

Probably whatever is in place currently unless there are special exemptions for disasters like this. Lots of insight to be gained in looking at the experience had in the Santa Cruz Mountains after about 1,000 structures burned in the 2020 CZU Lightning fire: pressbanner.com/4-years-afte...
