It was basically solved in a very boring manner. The California ports adopted a new system where ships had to book their arrivals in advance.

Now a ship doesn’t leave Asia until it has a berth confirmed. What that has meant in practice is that if a ship finds a long wait for an opening on the west coast they are going through the canal to the East coast ports with spare capacity.

So it’s over? I would have thought Biden would have crowed long and hard about solving that crisis.

It is far from solved. My deliveries went from 3 weeks to 26 weeks. Computer chips and raw material such as aluminum is scarce. Honeywell also is now 26 weeks delivery on their products.
