2016 is thankfully about to end, though I suspect we will long for it by the second quarter of next year. In parting, a quick round-up of items related to my series on successful innovations in American cities for POLITICO Magazine.
The Vermont "hack": Burlington Electric, the city-owned utility in Vermont's largest city, is in the news today because they discovered malevolent Russian state "hacker" code on one of their computers. I
profiled the utility last month for the series.
Roanoke Times editorial: thanks to Roanoke, Virginia's newspaper of record for
this editorial discussing how to move cities forward, with special focus on my
POLITICO article on that city, and the work of
The Atlantic's James Fallows. Much appreciated.
Bloomberg View on homelessness: Syndicated columnist Noah Smith t
ook up the issue of work and
homelessness this week, citing my most recent piece for the series on Albuquerque. The column was carried across the country, including at Maine's Bangor Daily News.
And, separately, thanks to columnists at the Herald Dispatch in Huntington, West Virginia and the Post Register in Idaho Falls, Idaho for taking up American Nations this month. Much appreciated.
Happy New Year, everyone. Let's hope it outperforms expectations.
