Sure, yes, but Heartstopper was a risk and Sandman, one of the more bankable IPs, was kept in limbo for a new season until the last few weeks for fear that not many people would want to watch it (probably an indicator in and of itself as to why all their original shows were cancelled)
Realistically the second season of Sandman and final season of Stranger Things probably won't materialize until 2024 given how long they take to produce.
There are so many building regulations, and grants to help older buildings meet standards that were not in place when they were built, awareness and education campaigns, and built-in procedures and policies in place that a regular California resident doesn't need to let the fear of an earthquake take over their life.
California is as prepared as any state can be for an earthquake and it is constantly looking for better ways to be prepared.
There's lots of regulations, but the regulations seem flawed by design. For example, in California at least, buildings need to be built to survive earthquakes, but not necessarily be functional.
In the event of a larger quake, you might survive the initial shock but a high percentage of your city, including new buildings will need to be torn down.
This represents a huge loss to a city in economic terms. Imagine if downtown LA lost 50% of its office buildings and apartment buildings. Compare this to Japan where buildings survive and are required to be usable. Japanese engineers are shocked at what they consider to be American substandard building codes.
Because Japan has way more earthquakes. Relatively, we are pretty well prepared in references to buildings. Now food supplies and power? I feel like people aren’t mentally prepared for that.

Currently implementing and maintaining online loan application sites for credit unions. Would love to use my skills programming on the back-end.
Yep. It'd be odd to call many of them "adult toys" anyway because often they are really intended to sell to kids, even when these companies are aware of the adult fanbase
I've taken classes, done simple stuff, talk about it with friends who are coders, but I just can't seem to get a job.
I've tried making a move to a programmer position in my last two jobs, but I either blow the interview, or my department holds me back cause they need me, or in my current job they tell me that they only hire level 3 engineers...
I can't find junior software engineer positions that would even interview me and it's become a thing that all I'll be good for is application support, no matter how much knowledge I show about programming and logic
To get some credentials you need a body of work or a degree. Volunteer program, either for a charity or an open source project. Then you can reference that.
A number of years ago, a friend of mine did some work on an open source C++ library. Google called him.
