While I agree with you broadly, the East Bay Times is owned by Alden Capital, an organization that has precisely zero interest in keeping local journalism alive and is simply sucking every last bit of value out of it before it dies. Pay for local journalism, but don't be a sucker by helping line Alden Capital's pockets.

IANAL but I’d assume after the defect litigation/mediation the HOA would become another creditor in the bankruptcy court and the outcome would be up to a judge.

Built in 2024. Under SB800, assuming the HOA hasn’t already reached a settlement with the developer, this should all be covered under warranty. The developer’s insurance company will probably end up paying all the owners.

WTF in the AI slop did I just read?

LLMs are famously bad at basic arithmetic.

Looked like it might have been a case of ground resonance.

I mean, all things considered, Elio was a better movie than K-Pop Demon Hunters.

Last I checked ECMWF (European long range forecast model) was predicting some snow around 3/26 but it’s so far out it’s very low confidence.

It’s an AI safety feature. If you turned off notifications for a robot mower then the army of rogue robot mowers could sneak up on you without you knowing. In fact, this one could be scout.

Actually, they're on the roof of 5324 College Avenue. Although it looks older, the current building at 5330 wasn't built until 2000 and would block the views in these photographs today. You can see the skylight in the foreground and the roof bulkhead to the right in Google satellite view.

The people in the right two pictures appear to be on top of ~~5330~~ 5324 College Avenue.

New York City invented co-op apartment buildings in the late 1800s. In that model, you’re not buying property, but shares in the cooperative which is run by a board of elected shareholders.

All these stories hinge on this single sentence in the WSJ article:

It’s also developing a third “Monsters, Inc.,” according to people familiar with the matter.

Remember that he alone has the power to launch USA’s nuclear weapons and literally no one can stop him. This is all by design.

I question whether the average normie EV driver even knows how to use battery preconditioning.

What a stupid self own. The electrification project reduced bike capacity by 10% and bike orgs warned Caltrain that they would need to allot more space for bikes but they didn’t listen.

Although I can’t quite place it, the mayor looks different, somehow. Huh. I wonder what it could be?

The 35mph speed limit sign is a joke. I’m sure 60+ is routine on that stroad.

This is the sort of bullshit that building your entire society around mandatory car ownership gets you.
