Fun fact:

New Zealand and Britain are recognised in Australia’s constitution.

Indigenous Australians and their existence here prior to British settlement are not.

@svpino @prod_defined @e_endruweit Hi @svpino do you have a cohort 8 planned? I’m curious of the possible start date and time.

Finally worked out what's been bugging me about the World Cup. Sat down to write and this came pouring out in about 45min.

@TheMatildas @samkerr1 Blown away by the lessons Matildas are bringing to today’s generation of kids. Their courage, vision, ambition, perseverance have put our small nation onto a world stage. They wear the 🟩🟨 but they embody true blue Aussie battlers! 🇦🇺⚽️ Bring on Olympic qualifiers!

“Whenever I’m about to do something, I think ‘Would an idiot do that?’ and if they would, I do not do that thing.” – Dwight Schrute

And what is the best way to spot an idiot? Look for the person who is cruel.

WOEFUL. Old white male rehashing OLD economic theory repeatedly, at the people, to reduce inflation, at a time when inflation is NOT caused by the people, but by corporations, a pandemic and supply chain disruptions brought on by war. #Auspol2023

MISSING CONTEXT

If we add same-race crime, we see that the vast majority of violent crimes in America involve white victims and white offenders.

If we thought race was a huge factor, and wanted to make the biggest impact on crime numbers, we might want to start there.

❌Proposed changes to PRRT don’t go nearly far enough.
Gas giants pay very little tax for our resources & govt still subsidies roads & infrastructure then majority is exported at great profit and domestic consumers pay excessive prices. What’s wrong with this picture? #auspol

Oh great.

Meet the new AI Chatbot, Pi.

It acts as a personal assistant, and a "shoulder to cry on".

Of course, it's got a female voice, while most of the business and finance chatbots have male voices.

I despair. #MANMADE

@OMGTheMess The challenge with any big funding is it draws scrutiny and becomes the target for cost cuts. What might need tracking/estimation is the medical complications and associated costs that were avoided (eg, in Medicare) as a result of the interventions that NDIS enabled.
