The fires were fought by the all-black 555th Parachute Infantry Battalion [1], acting as on-call firefighters... they "jumped" on many of the fires to get there quickly. I read several personal stories of individual paratroopers, and their courage was impressive!

Re:Help me understand the Uber cancellation scam?

I've faced similar scams with drivers. Sometimes they'll call and encourage me to cancel, saying all sorts of things but commonly "Where you going? Oh, I'm not going in that direction", etc. But then they don't cancel the ride and wait for me to do it. I do wonder if they get the cancellation fees.

> and the searchable codebase
Do you mean that you'd search Google's entire codebase monorepo for code examples, or that there was a better, searchable code snippet tool internally?
