      CIA/Pentagon/White House workers have lives. When something big goes down like …oh I don’t know…Iran getting spicy and launching hundreds of drones and missiles at Israel overnight, those lives get disrupted.

      People work overtime and order takeout or aren’t able to go out on the town like they normally would so that makes changes to the usual data patterns in the DC area. So they say ramp ups in US military activity can be predicted by detecting those changes.

      Yeah, the implication is something is about to happen that the Pentagon is preparing for, and it’s keeping their employees working late and away from the gay bar as a result.

      Pizza Meter but in the style of NCD. It was largely an urban legend, allegedly, but maybe it being an urban legend is an urban legend.

      A guy made a website that monitors restaurant orders in DC, posted a year ago and it’s down now… I wonder if he got a friendly knock and talk or just didn’t want to pay hosting any longer.
