If only there was a US Government department which kept track of this sort of thing. Oh wait: www.cdc.gov/nchs/pressro....

There is barely anything correct in that. Couldn't even get the flag on the bridge right.
Removing the Cahill Expressway and Blues Point Tower a good start though ....

In Australia, 'Rooting' also has a different meaning which makes this an even bigger burn given the other rumours circulating .... 😜

I feel there needs to be a good forum for publishing learnings from study design failures though - I suspect there is a reasonable amount of research time and money wasted through repeating mistakes others have made but not shared.

Obvs in relation to housing not dental! But it's also critical for renewable projects and real opps for higher value industrial, tech and ag uses. Current env regulation (state and Cth) is not fit for purpose and stifles innovation & adds delays & $ with no env benefits. Too reflexive to Nimbyism

Part of this is genuine planning and enviro reform to streamline assessment processes. To date, changes to leg have just added extra stuff to consider as a standard requirement rather than targetting assessment reqs on material risks. U can regulate smarter and cheaper w/o reducing env protection.

And yet the US Government has no problem in using X as a dissemination point for Governement information despite X doing nothing to limit antisemitism (and other racial/ sexist material) on that site....

With what Trump is doing cancelling research funding in the US, now would be a perfect time to throw research money at Unis and encourage OS researchers/ students to come here.

One thing I don't get about the firms bending to Trump's pressure is: 'why would a company engage such a firm if the firm wouldn't defend itself against pressure from the government?'.
Surely it makes financial sense to stand up to injustice and argue that you would do the same for your clients.
