Looks like the government might finally be caving to the pressure myself, others on the crossbench & especially Australians in communities across the country have been putting on them to tax gas companies making wartime profits. Australians are already paying more on petrol & we shouldn’t be paying more on beer excise than the government gets for Petroleum Resources Rent Tax (PRRT). It’s encouraging to see Treasury modelling changes to the way gas is taxed. We should have a flat 25% tax on all gas exports & enough gas exports diverted into an east coast gas reservation & we need both now. abc.net.au/news/2026-03-2…

AI about to get 20x expensive. These $200 / month claude subscriptions are burning $5,000 worth of credits. The bubble is going to pop and it will pop soon.

If we swapped all 20 million vehicles to EV's we'd need ~44-50 TWh more electricity annually. If we did this EV switch, it would risk blackouts, price spikes, and instability without massive immediate infrastructure. If the majority of drivers plugged in after work, it would be catastrophic. If we had a wind/sun drought, can you imagine the mayhem?
David Pocock@DavidPocock

Australia burns through about 25 billion litres of petrol and diesel every year. Replacing petrol cars with EVs would cut our reliance on expensive imported foreign fuel. But EVs still make up only about 2% of Australia’s 20 million vehicles. More affordable EVs & a strong second-hand EV market can help more Australians afford the switch while strengthening our energy security. theguardian.com/environment/20…

Our company has begun deploying AI aggressively over the last month. Here’s a list of nearly everything we’ve used it for so far. These are simple but highly impactful things you can copy today.

The RBA raising rates due to oil prices is the dumbest thing I've heard all year. When Oil goes up, everything goes up, inflation goes up, yes. How the hell is making home loans more expensive going to fix an oil crisis??! Typically when inflation is high, reducing spendable incomes reduces people's ability to pay for things putting downward pressure on prices. However everyone can't just choose to stop paying for fuel...

Today, the ACCC is hauling the petrol suppliers and retailers in for an explanation. Some of the steep increases in petrol prices we saw shortly after the outbreak of this conflict have really raised concerns at the ACCC. This is why we’ve increased surveillance, we’re doubling the penalties and we’ve empowered the consumer watchdog to get to the bottom of what’s going on here. I’ve made it very clear that if they find evidence of misconduct, we expect the ACCC to throw the book at them.

The global economy is about $110 trillion. New Zealand’s economy is about $360 billion NZD. We are a tiny share of the world economy, but that is exactly why the opportunity is so large. A huge amount of global business can now be done from anywhere. Capital moves. Talent moves. Companies move. Profits move. Entire industries can be attracted to the jurisdiction that is safest, smartest, and most pro business. So here is the question. Why would New Zealand not aim to become the best place in the world to do business? Strong property rights. Pro business courts. Strong police. A serious state that protects order. Fast approvals. Low bureaucracy. Company tax cut from 28% to 15%. If we did that, we would become a magnet for capital, entrepreneurs, high value firms, and globally mobile business activity. And the beautiful part is this. You do not need higher tax rates to collect more tax. If you massively grow the size of the economy, you can collect the same or more revenue from a much larger base while leaving more money in private hands to invest, hire, build, and grow. That means lower taxes for business, more opportunity for workers, higher wages, more investment, and a richer country. Singapore is the proof. They have a broadly similar population to New Zealand, but an economy more than double the size. They did not get there by punishing business. They got there by attracting it. This is one of the greatest opportunities New Zealand has. Stop asking how to divide up a small economy. Start asking how to build a much bigger one.

Wow ... contrary to this interview, I would actually be recommending to most Australians, REGARDLESS of a fuel crisis, to seriously consider switching to an EV.

Some people say now is your last chance to get rich before all work disappears. It’s not true. We will all be rich. And everything you have saved will have been a waste of time. Your million-dollar house will be worth $10,000. The price of everything will drop by 99%. That means your universal high income (UHI) will be worth 100 times an average salary today. Your savings will mean nothing, and we will all be rich.

I'm still convinced there's a non-zero chance that OAI has had full fledged AGI since 2023-2024 and all of these models are simply a planned adaptation period.

@deltaIV9250 The F-22 does one thing extremely well, shooting down aircraft. It has no ground strike capability. If the F-35 does its job as a multirole strike platform well enough enemy fighters won’t even get off the ground. Also there’s no point in taking off if there’s F-22s nearby.
