As in New Yorker I have mixed feelings about this.
On the one hand we need to maintain enough power generation in-state to support current residents and businesses. We already import energy from Quebec that is sent via power lines to New York City. Also, electricity in New York state is not inexpensive compared to other states in the country.

๐ฃYAAAAAAAAAAAAS HOCHUL YOUGOGRRRRRRRL!
i honestly did not think she had it in her to do this. am pleasantly shocked and am saying it right now: she has won her re-election.
#NYS cannot afford to give away our drinking #water to OPEC backed vultures. NYS has one of the most extremely managed water systems in the world because, without it, #nyc wouldnโt exist.
data centers in upstate new york would destroy life in Manhattan as we know it.
DONโT FUCK WITH NEW YORK.

"Hochul Temporarily Bans New Data Centers in NY Amid Scrutiny of Climate Impacts"
"New York will impose a yearlong moratorium on new energy-intensive data centers, Gov. Kathy Hochul announced Tuesday โ the first such ban in the country as officials scrutinize the burgeoning sitesโ impact on local environments."
That scrutiny must include quality-of-life impact.

In public energy, climate tactics that rely on proximity to political power do not work.
Here is a #longRead analysis of how the New York state climate movement won and then lost the state's climate law. This backlash contrasts with the New York City climate movement, which won NYC Local Law 97. That is a Green New Deal-level law on its way to massive success. Both passed in 2019.
Excerpt: "The Knicks have the mentality the New York climate movement needs: a hustling, scratching and clawing mentality that hits above its weight. A mentality that can win a championship."

If you are an artist and the only way people can preview your work or learn about you is #Instagram, then you are making the world a worse place.
Please stop propping up fascists.

CW: nypol nycpol
Several of my friends have, since I published those recommendations, tried to persuade me to support Ramos instead of Gonzรกlez-Rojas for New York State Senate District 13. You know what's most efficacious in making me think about changing my mind? Nearly a million dollars in dark money swooping into the race to support her opponent:

New York State Gets One Step Closer to a Data Center Moratorium
The state Legislature just passed a bill that would place a 12-month freeze on permits for data centers. If the governor signs it, it would be the first statewide moratorium in the nation.

7 years of testimony. Near-unanimous legislature. TechNet rewrote it before Hochul signed.
NY's Digital Fair Repair Act:
โ post-July 2023 devices only
โ assemblies instead of parts
โ business/gov devices exempt
โ no security codes requiredThis is about manufacture control and enshitifcation of #3dpriniting not about guns. @[email protected] Do better, this kills tech and manufaction here in #nys

my hometown :)
`Headquartered in Albany, New York, Anderon will operate a 300mm quantum wafer fab and offer its manufacturing services to competing quantum hardware vendors. The deal was the centerpiece of a broader $2.013 billion federal quantum portfolio split across nine companies, the largest single quantum R&D commitment in U.S. history.`

I think the #LIRR strike was basically like undoing #CongestionPricing. My kids' bus has returned to taking 1.5 hours each way rather than 45-60mins.
Now that the strike is over, let's hope traffic returns to normal. It would be a great time to raise the congestion pricing toll to its originally planned level, though. #NYC #MTA #NYS

Fuck you NY state retirement! I just collected my dadโs ashes and when I called to be sure there would be money for his internment, your phone system literally hung up on me without letting me talk to someone. Thatโs just fucked up and painful at this moment.
Why I will never work #NYS again.

New Yorkโs 3D printer bill is technically doomed.
They want AI to scan every file for โfirearm geometry.โ But even solving a 2D jigsaw puzzle is extremely difficult for AI โ it has to match shape, color, orientation, and context all at once.
Now they want it to do that in 3D.#3Dprinting #3Dprint

New Yorkโs budget bill wants every 3D printer sold in the state to scan every file before printing using a firearms detection system.
Bambu Lab already built almost exactly this system. Their printers stay connected to the internet, every sliced file is sent to their cloud servers for authorization, and those servers can block prints. -

Iโll hand it to #NYS. They do make it easy to report the death of an employee or retiree. of the many state websites and apps, Iโve dealt with over my career, the ease of this tool is practically shocking.

Hype for the Future 141A: Hamilton County, New York
Introduction Hamilton County is a county located withinโand the smallest county ofโthe State of New York, located within the Adirondack Mountains and entirely within Adirondack Park. The county seat, however small, is the community at Lake Pleasant, connected to the community of Speculator to the northeast along Route 8.
