Yes. I will stop with these kinds of comments ("hurr durr", "musk sh*tposter") because I didn't realize this kind of talk was discouraged. I can say it in a better way. Thanks for the feedback.

Edit: I think you do a good job moderating this site so I'm sorry to have caused you an issue.

Much appreciated! and no worries—the only thing that matters is using the site as intended going forward.

The 1937 number is already inflation-adjusted.

I'd be curious to know how much the real wages have changed since then though. It seems that in the US as whole, it hasn't changed much in the last 50 years or so. [1] However, the data doesn't go back to 1937, and it's for the entire US (not California in particular).

I think most data points to delays rather than worker’s compensation as the big cost driver. Time is money. The net project isn’t even completed yet.
