ChatGPT made a nice table about developer risk in a place like coastal California vs Arizona.

@usrbinsean @PabloPeniche They're speaking jokingly I think. Kinda like how .com is de-facto mostly American since most major American sites use it or another international TLD instead of .us

@PabloPeniche In fact, when all this was being built SF was still dicking around with BBSs/FidoNET/SF Net and the largely offline Multimedia Gulch was where all the art/tech people were. SF may have been the dotcom center in the late 90s, but was really late to the Internet party as a whole.

@PabloPeniche Nope. .com was run by Network Solutions in McLean, Virginia in the early days. Then IANA was out of LA near the roots of USC's ISI, then Verisign bought NSI and are back in NoVA in Reston. SF itself was never part of core internet infrastructure.

@prettyreznik @interesting_aIl Well yeah. This was very common in Europe because people were stuck with the govt telephone monopoly in the 90s/2000s and would be routinely buying SIM cards, esp for roaming or prepaid. It wasn't like the US where you got your SIM from VoiceStream and forgot about it.

@ankkala People in both cities don't think about parts of their own city outside of what they can get to in 5 - 10 minutes unless they live in the exurbs or they're going to some major event. Both cities are rife with traffic and laziness which makes people incredibly provincial.

@MakeAugusta Mine can handle it. Stop buying the cheapest shit on the shelf and buy a man's extension cord.

Please do NOT plug space heaters into extension cords! Plug them directly into the wall outlet!!! Extension cords/ Power strips are not able to handle the high current flow that a space heater can put out and can overheat causing a fire. 🔥🔥🔥

@nobodyknows2322 For a while, at least prior to 2023, Arizona's groundwater was so well managed that it was even being routinely recharged despite drilling pressure.

@nobodyknows2322 Sort of. Every new development has to be within a city or prove it has a 100 year Assured and Adequate Water Supply, and it's been this way since 1980 with the Groundwater Management Act, but it's only been since 2023 did ADWR decide that groundwater couldn't count to that.

@nobodyknows2322 Most new housing replaces farmland. Housing is vastly less water intensive than crops.
