Suburban solar power subscribers seeing red over sky-high bills | News | CITY News. Arts. Life.
I see all these constant obnoxious ads for community solar, that promise to save you money by milking federal and state tax credits. But it turns out that many of these programs are scams.
If you really cared about the environment, you'd be far better off to just use less electricity, turn down the heat and get rid of your electronics. Walk more places, drive less. Green garbage is just as polluting as non green garbage, so don't buy either.
How to label a point in QGIS based on a vector layer below it
How to label a point in QGIS based on a vector layer below it
For example, you might have a point layer and want to label what town it is in. You might have the Census Tiger County Subdivision layer named ‘tl_2020_36_cousub20’, with the field ‘NAMELSAD20’ that you want to return from your point or polygon layer.
attribute(array_first(overlay_nearest(‘tl_2020_36_cousub20′,$currentfeature)),’NAMELSAD20’)
This will give you the nearest feature.
You need to wrap it in array_first as shown above, as overlay_nearest returns an array with one element. Then attribute just returns the attribute based on the object provided.
Alternatives include overlay_contains, overlay_crosses, overlay_intersects, overlay_touches, overlay_within which will return what you want. Try searching the QGIS Help in the QGIS Expressions builder.
You can also use this style of expression to create a spatial join or nearest neighbor join, inside the field calculator.

AMSTERDAM — Contractors working on Route 5 in the city of Amsterdam discovered wires from an explosive device during excavation today, city police said.
Crews working on a state Department of Transportation project to realign traffic on Route 5 discovered the wires during excavation across from the Riverfront Center, according to Det. Lt. Sal Megna, of the Amsterdam Police Department.
No explosive devices were observed at the site. The wires likely date back to when the road was first constructed. It was not immediately known if the device had been detonated in the past and the wires left behind or if the device remained under the ground, Megna said.
