If you haven't read this article, you need to. Plex sent 120 remote employees to Honduras for a Survivor-themed retreat. $500k budget. - CEO ignored "don't eat the vegetables" warnings, got E. coli from a salad, spent the week on an IV nailed to his bedpost while the retreat he planned happened outside his window - First challenge was eat whatever's on the platter. One guy lifted the cover and found a dead tarantula. He ate it. "Pretty horrible, not going to lie. Those hairs." - Navy SEAL drills on the beach in 100 degree heat. One employee landed on a fire ant hill in shorts. Medical staff had no antihistamine pills, only injectable. They shot it into her butt cheek. - A porcupine fell through a shower ceiling onto an engineer. "I called the front desk. I said, 'there's some sort of large rodent thing here.'" Hotel came, grabbed it, left. - Island day trip. Small planes. They had to get 100+ people back before dark because the runway had no lights. They didn't make it. Stranded overnight, no runway lights, one employee receiving a stranger's IV, all of them in matching tank tops. Nearly a decade later, most of them still work together and still talk about it. $500k couldn't buy that.

just did an AI capability diagnostic for a 100-person company in Australia. they purchased Microsoft Copilot for everyone. here's how employees are actually using it: - 50% using it like Google (1-3 words prompts..., 25~ chats a day) - 25% not using it at all - 15% using other tools secretly (10% on Manus, 5% on ChatGPT) - 9% actually using it properly for daily to do manual tasks - 1% uses Claude and completly automated their role but told no one the company paid for 100 licenses only 9 people are getting value meanwhile in SF we're debating AGI timelines the gap between "AI is everywhere" and "people actually using AI" is massive we're not in an AI revolution. we're in an adoption crisis.

@abcnews any plans to add ‘start over’ functionality to iview? 7 and 9 have it. Means when you want to watch news at 7.10 you can catch up from the start rather then having to wait for the entire bulletin to finish broadcasting and come online.

Goldman Sachs just revealed their "buy and sell list for software stocks in 2026". They're not sharing this with retail investors—just their biggest institutional clients. But I got my hands on the full list. Here are their winning and losing stocks for this sector:

@mase_the @ellymelly Yes, ABS data confirms the 21.5% rise in electricity costs includes the exhaustion of state rebates (e.g., in QLD and WA from Dec 2024). Excluding rebates, prices rose 4.6% in the 12 months to Dec 2025, unchanged from Nov.

26 million people are told to cut their spending to stop inflation. They do. They make sacrifices. They forgo their holiday. They eat at home. They give up a few more things that make life fun. Then the government imports 500,000 people. With 26.5 million - overall spending is UP. Inflation goes UP. The government says it's YOUR FAULT for spending too much. And yet you look around at your declining living standards and wonder how the heck that could be true.

Australia’s annual inflation rate = worst in developed world. And it’s accelerating — everywhere else it is trending down. 🇦🇺 Australia 3.8% ⬆️ 🇺🇸 United States 2.7% ⬇️ 🇨🇦 Canada 2.4% ➡️ 🇪🇺 Eurozone 2.0% ➡️ 🇯🇵 Japan 2.1% ⬇️ 🇬🇧 United Kingdom 3.4% ⬇️ 🇩🇪 Germany 1.8% ⬇️

@eddieoliver_g @au_samschriever Many migrants build homes, staff hospitals, teach, transport goods and run services. Cutting them often raises costs by worsening labour shortages. if gov use growth to prop up GDP, the answer is better rules so supply gains translate into lower costs, not just higher numbers.

@pscobie @au_samschriever Yes but cutting demand by cutting immigration is most important because it reduces cost of all goods not just housing. I fear that if supply magically increased gov will use that to boost immigration to keep gdp up

Sam Schriever@au_samschriever·
Hi Abbie! Here’s some clarification… Our concerns: 1. Immigration puts pressure on housing, specifically the rental market, and contributes to housing stress. 2. Immigration puts pressure on wage growth, specifically lower skilled and already low paying jobs. 3. Immigration with no anti-ethnic clustering policies result in reduced social cohesion and the degradation of our culture. To summarise, cost of living pressure from mass immigration is very real and in addition to that we are concerned about the real time loss of the what once was a potent Australian identity. Solutions / Demands: 1. Reduce temporary visa holders by atleast 1 million. 2. Link immigration to a national housing affordability index. 3. Implement social integration policies for new arrivals along with anti-ethnic clustering policies. Immigrants aren’t the problem, our immigration program is! Hope that helps Ms Chatfield! (feel free to send this to her or tag her)

@GbellOz @BGatesIsaPyscho Calling it simple doesn’t make it simple. Violence patterns vary by place, time and trigger - ignoring that is ideology over evidence. Freedom matters for sure, but so does responsibility. Governments already shape safety but the real question is how wisely, not whether.

🚨🇦🇺 Meanwhile in the Australian parliament. “If you don’t have the courage to look in the mirror and say it’s not guns that are the problem but Radical Islam” Senator loses it. Australia joins a long list of countries that are simultaneously and systematically being destroyed through deliberate globalism.

@eddieoliver_g @au_samschriever Demand matters, but supply is the main constraint. Cutting migration without fixing planning delays, skills shortages and construction bottlenecks just pauses the problem. Cut bad red tape, boost build capacity, align growth with housing - do all three!

@pscobie @au_samschriever More red tape and “labour protections” will not build more houses nor will it create more goods. Demand needs to come down and production needs to rise. Regulatory costs are 40%-50% of new build costs, and the market is passing those costs on.

@MaxJames81396 @diggerdeegs @pscobie @au_samschriever Granted the issue is broad, however, Australia has had unsustainable population growth year on year since Covid. We need to enable the building industry to recover to reduce the housing crisis, and the easy trigger is to slow migration. It’s not racism, it’s simply numbers!

@MarcoBogaers @au_samschriever Melb’s population rise has broader drivers - internal migration, natural increase + economic opportunity, not solely overseas arrivals. Policy should target housing supply, planning reform and infrastructure rather than assuming that cutting numbers is the most effective solve

@pscobie @au_samschriever The temporary visa population has grown from <1 million in 2000 to nearly 3 million in 2025 driven by student visas, skilled temporary visas & working holiday visas. Melbourne’s population alone has increased 60.4% from 3.36m in 2000 to 5.39m in 2025.

@saltwatercroc45 @au_samschriever It matters cos turning the taps off without fixing the pipes only gives temp relief. If 🇦🇺 pauses immigration but keep broken housing and labour systems, shortages return fast and we’ve lost workers, skills, and growth in the meantime. Needs a long-term fix.

Does it even matter at this point? Why debate the root cause when we already know reducing immigration is a simple way of providing some immediate relief? It’s like watching the bathtub overflow while saying ‘well actually the root cause of this is ageing pipes and ineffective drainage,’ who fucken cares mate just turn the taps off and we’ll worry about the other stuff once the water stops.
