A spokesperson for ShinyHunters, the prolific cyber extortionists who hacked the FBI's job portal last week, tells me they now won't release any more data from that hack. They also sent this somewhat confusing statement that indicates they maybe think they've bitten off more than they can chew.

This video on the problems with Traffic Demand Modeling, and the risk of using bad modeling wrt 794, is a must watch. The remove option is best. Reconnect downtown to the Third Ward, improve AQI, improve the safety of people in and outside cars, decrease maintenance costs, and increase the tax base.

6 years of research: "The only trait that consistently predicted objections to remote work was narcissism—the tendency to be self-centered & entitled. The higher the opinions of themselves leaders expressed, the more they coveted power and status—& the more they favored return-to-office mandates."
