   @madcoder @rpaulo in southern Italy buried lines are actually a problem since they run under the highway. In summer the road heats up a lot and the current rating for the lines drops enough that they need to do rolling blackouts to keep everything operational. there is no escaping weather challenges in infra :\

     @rpaulo I come from a country where all power lines were buried between 1990 and 2000. I had not experienced any power outage of more than a few minutes (and maybe 3 times total) in my 15 years as an adult there.

     (And I’ve stayed in the middle of storms in places quite more remote and more sparsely inhabited than the South Bay).

     @madcoder it is said infrastructure should plan for around 80% of weather events but it feels like we don’t plan for winter. “It’s always sunny in Philadelphia^WCalifornia”

     Aaaaaahhh I had missed the smell of the Californian infrastructure straight from 1983.

     Except this time I have a battery.
