“ Respectful but fiercely competitive, Albanese is a Labor man who has shown himself to be as adept – or perhaps more so – at fighting Greenies as he is at fighting Tories”
As bad as that?

Some selection bis involved, of course, but Mandy Brown is absolutely testifying lately. https://aworkinglibrary.com/writing/dreaming-awake
I listened to “Greg the Stop Sign” once and the music streamer keeps putting it into my feeds.
Hell is the algorithm.
I assume John Howard has already uncapped the special pen he reserves only to write character references for those charged with child sexual abuse.
I feel like I should be able to, in whichever Git As A Service tool I am using, open a code review on a branch. Not on a pull request, but just in general on a branch. Instead, as I am walking through some 7 year old code trying to get a better picture of what it is doing, I keep tripping over hard to understand snippets. I don't want to get pulled into side quests trying to understand what they are doing. I sure as hell don't want to have to create a ticket asking someone to add code comments. And I don't want to destroy someone else's train of thought asking them for a synchronous response. I just want to leave a comment.
Listener, I am instead creating a text file of file + line numbers and a copy of the snippet that I will then have to manage manually if I ever want answers. It leaves a lot to be desired.
Nice of old mate to take a break from picking up every petty lurk and perk he could find to take the fight to the Tories at ... Twitter and Facebook. Oh boy, he'll really get the Tele on side with this one. 😒
Songs of a Lost World, the new Cure album is…. fine. It’ll probably take a few listens to really tease out the tracks I like.
Comparisons to the 80s albums are inevitable but incredibly unfair.
“Ok, now link the new JIRA ticket to this one one as a dependen………where is the link button? Oh come on, where is it now, Atlassian? CANNON-BROOKES!!!!!!!!!”
That uncomfortable feeling that while you were probably only a straw on the back of botsin.space, you were still a straw.
People who use 2x speed on videos are monsters.
Also, people who spend the first four minutes of the video intended to demo a bug chit-chatting about how common the name Sarah is 😬😬😬😬😬😬
Shocking, but not surprising, that Australia keeps managing to turn up blokes who can look at Scott Morrison absolutely wrecking his career and reputation (his second greatest unwisely-shitting-on-something) with his tone deaf performances and actions from 2019 onwards and think that hey, they'd quite like to try that as well.
A Typescript library for building on the fediverse. But also a global cli tool that has helped me more than anything else - particularly the ActivityPub sec - to find my mistakes when implementing.
Spent an hour in Ambarvale Hotel drinking a GOAT (it’s not) and watching Swans vs Collingwood from Round 1, 1987. Complete with Winfield 25s ads at the ground.
The past truly is a different country.
Every parliament should have a Lidia Thorpe to flush out the utter cynicism and vacuousness of the place.
The beginning of examination of how linked the systems within which we operate are, and how that affects us.
I'm re-reading Red Mars, by Kim Stanley Robinson. I think every time I read this, Arkady radicalises me just a little bit more :-)
A bunch of reading material and notes on how to manage legacy projects and code
