Don”t miss @DavidLauter’s final @latimes column, which is as clear-headed as all the others. No gimmicks or overwrought takes. He’s one of the best because he breaks down what he knows and doesn’t know with clarity, wisdom and humility. latimes.com/politics/newslet…

Are you waiting for the other shoe to drop? Your electric bill has tiers that do the exact same thing. Public has no clue of the number of people getting ZERO electric bill that is subsidized by higher rates from upper tiers.

Giannis in a nutshell:
1.) He doesn't take the easy answer. The crowd pleasing sound bite is "yes! Failure!"
2.) He's incredibly considerate. He's not nasty to the reporter, he thoughtfully explains why he disagrees.
3.) The guy is impossible to not love. Legend already.
Giannis didn’t like this reporter's question on if he thinks this season was a failure. xitter.cf/BleacherReport/status/…

The tech sector is contracting right now, and if you add up all the job cuts, it surpasses the dot-com bubble burst job losses of the early ‘00’s (which were ~120k). This is going to have some downstream effects.

JUST POSTED: California's got a new plan for cutting rooftop solar incentives. Not as much as an earlier proposal, but still a cut. The solar industry and the monopoly utilities are both crying foul.
