NY Times Magazine: ‘We’re Going to Bring It Back to Life’: The Long Road to Reviving Lahaina
Hawaii’s housing crisis was at a breaking point even before the fire. Since then, displaced families have struggled to rebuild their lives.
"...The Lahaina fire burned 2,170 acres, destroyed more than 2,700 structures and killed at least 102 people. Some 12,000 people lost their homes overnight.
Less than a year later, 11,637 Hawaii residents were homeless, an 87 percent increase from before the fire, and the number of residents living in emergency shelters or in transitional places — ranging from FEMA-funded housing to friends’ garages — had tripled...."

Weekly output: Snapdragon Windows software compatibility, Qualcomm’s connected-car ambitions, Snap Spectacles ’24, Mark Vena podcast, Bluesky business plans, Qualcomm 8-core Snapdragon X Plus benchmarking, election security
Before I get to my usual list of what got published under my name this week, I need to vent about what did not get published by the Washington Post this week: the endorsement of Kamala Harris that, by multiple accounts, was quashed by imported-from-London publisher Will Lewis at the direction of owner Jeff Bezos. The insultingly vapid explanation by Lewis can only be read as Bezos attempting to grovel for a lesser spot for his businesses on Donald Trump’s enemies list.
This is a craven betrayal of the legacy of Katharine Graham, who defied the threats of Richard Nixon and his lackeys while the Post published the Pentagon Papers and documented Nixon’s Watergate crimes.
Jeff Bezos, you are no Kay Graham.
10/22/2024: Qualcomm Moves to Ease Windows on Snapdragon Compatibility Concerns, PCMag
My first post from Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Summit covered a series of moves to address one lingering concern of that company’s rollout of fast and battery-friendly laptop processors: compatibility with existing Windows apps and peripherals. Reminder: Qualcomm covered my airfare and lodging on this trip.
10/24/2024: Qualcomm Revs Up Connected-Car Ambitions at Snapdragon Summit, PCMag
Then I filed a much longer post unpacking Qualcomm’s pitch to automakers to use its connected-car platforms. It was weird to see the only in-person endorsements from automakers in Qualcomm’s day-two keynote come from Chinese manufacturers.
10/25/2024: Snap Spectacles ’24 First Look: AR Glasses That Aren’t Vaporware, PCMag
I tried out these augmented-reality glasses Monday afternoon but didn’t have time to write about them until Thursday morning–the first-world problem of being at a conference with a packed schedule six time zones to the left of my editors.
10/25/2024: Ep 70 SmartTechCheck Moment — Ruminations on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Summit 2024 in Hawaii, Mark Vena
I joined my industry-analyst pal Mark Vena and other analysts Mike Feibus, Francis Sideco and Dave Altavilla to record a podcast from a lawn at the Wailea Beach Resort, Qualcomm’s venue for the summit.
10/25/2024: Bluesky Readies Subscription Option, Says It Won’t Be Like X Premium, PCMag
I hustled to write this short post from Maui’s airport before a flight to Los Angeles that I didn’t even realize would have no WiFi for most of the flight over the Pacific.
10/27/2024: Qualcomm’s 8-Core Snapdragon X Plus, Tested: A Competitive, Cheaper Chip, PCMag
The research for this post began with a benchmarking session Qualcomm hosted at IFA about seven weeks ago, after which my editor and I were respectively slammed with travel and other schedule conflicts–while, conveniently enough, laptops with these new processors had not yet shipped.
10/27/2024: Election security, Alaraby
I appeared via Zoom on this Arabic-language news channel to share some details from my experience as an Arlington County poll worker.
Updated 10/28/2024 to add a link to my TV hit.

The top 10 most impactful #weather events of 2023
From powerful #hurricanes and #tornadoes to drought-busting storms and the deadliest #wildfire in the US in a century, here is a look back at the most unforgettable weather events of 2023.
By Monica Danielle, AccuWeather senior producer
Published Dec 26, 2023
1. Record-breaking January tornado outbreak
In a month typically clocking inches of snow, there were a whopping 168 tornadoes reported over two outbreaks, more than triple the historical average for January, setting a new record for the month.
An outbreak on January 12 produced 70 tornado reports across seven states. This date included two EF3 tornadoes that resulted in at least 9 deaths and 34 injuries across #Alabama and #Georgia. An EF2 tornado also caused devastation in the historic city of #SelmaAlabama, about 40 miles west of Montgomery.
2. Violent EF4 tornado rips through #Mississippi, killing 17
On March 24, two dozen twisters touched down across the Southeast, including the deadliest and one of the year’s most violent tornadoes. The EF4 tornado ripped through #Rolling ForkMississippi, and claimed the lives of 17 people, including a couple killed by a large semi-truck that was tossed into their home.
3. The most notable tornado outbreak of the year
The most notable tornado outbreak of 2023 was the deadly and now historic outbreak that impacted large portions of the Midwest, South, and East U.S. on March 31 and April 1. The year's second and final EF4 tornado was one of 122 twisters reported across multiple states. AccuWeather's own storm tracker and meteorologist, Tony Laubach, captured incredible footage of one of the strongest tornadoes of the year when he intercepted the twister in southeast #Iowa near the city of #Ottumwa.
4. Drought-busting #AtmosphericRivers unload record-breaking #snow
Coming into 2023, drought was a major concern for #California and other parts of the West. "This is a #megadrought," California Governor Gavin Newsom said. "Some scientists argue it's the most significant in 1200 years of human history." But it wouldn't be long until the #drought was wiped out completely.
5. Smoke from #Canada's worst-ever wildfire season blankets US cities
Canada experienced its worst wildfire season on record, obliterating all other years in terms of area burned. Over the course of the fire season, flames scorched an estimated 18.4 million hectares—an area roughly the size of North Dakota. According to NASA, on average, just 2.5 million hectares burn in Canada each year.
6. Deadliest US wildfire in more than a century sweeps through #Maui, #Hawaii
The wildfire that ignited in Maui on August 8 was the deadliest in the U.S. in more than a century, killing at least 106 people and all but incinerating #Lahaina, destroying every building in the town of 13,000.
7. #HurricaneIdalia slams #Florida's Nature Coast
The above-normal 2023 Atlantic hurricane season was characterized by record-warm #AtlanticSeaSurfaceTemperatures and a strong #ElNiño. A total of 20 storms were named in 2023, along with a tropical depression and an unnamed subtropical storm. This ranks fourth for the most-named storms in a year since 1950 and the most on record during an El Niño-influenced season. Seven storms were hurricanes, three intensifying to major #hurricanes.
8. #HurricaneLee stirs up rough surf, and dangerous rip currents along East Coast
Before making landfall in far western #NovaScotia, Hurricane Lee caused dangerous surf and rip currents along the Atlantic Coast of the United States. Lee claimed two victims, a 51-year-old man who was killed by a falling tree branch in #Maine and a teenager who drowned off the coast of Florida amid rough seas churned up by the hurricane. The monstrous storm cut power to more than 280,000 electric customers across Maine, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick as it roared ashore.
9. The hottest year in recorded history
Six record-breaking months and two seasons – summer and autumn – were recorded in 2023, making it the hottest year ever recorded.
10. El Niño nears historic strength
The global weather phenomenon El Niño, in which surface waters are abnormally warm in the eastern tropical Pacific, was a major player in many of the top weather events in 2023. The major shift to El Niño following three years of La Niña, could evolve into one of the strongest El Niño events observed over the past 75 years, new data shows.

A sack of Maui Lemons!
I was excited today to buy my very first bag of produce grown in one of Maui's old sugar cane fields -- 35,000 acres of which went fallow when Hawaiʻi's last sugar mill at Puʻunēnē, #Maui closed in 2016.
These vast fields were bought up by an enterprise called #MahiPono with the intent of creating #LocalAgriculture for local consumption -- economic recycling that doesn't happen much here.
Having less of our fresh produce shipped from the mainland is a very good thing.

BIDEN MEDIA TEAM
need to be thoughtful about who gets to be in the pictures of people he is consoling in #Hawaii.it is not the look if he is only consoling well-to-do retirees; and even less the look if they are white men.
that would be like going to Puerto Rico after a hurricane to only console the gringos with the tax-free million dollar mansions.
it's just not the look at all

Can someone recommend charities for the victims of the Canadian and Hawaiian wildfires? Ones that give direct relief to the victims? I see a lot of toots with a ton of charities, not sure which ones to choose. Any recommendations would be appreciated. ❤️
