what they fail to mention is that people feel like they’re moving backwards *relative to where they were before* not necessarily in comparison to other nations
Dirtyleftie@CraigSarg73

One Nation supporters keep claiming Australia is “going backwards”, but the data tells a different story. 🇦🇺 Australia ranks 3rd in the world for Quality of Life. 🇦🇺 We consistently rank among the world’s top countries on the UN Human Development Index. 🇦🇺 We’re regularly in the global top 10 for happiness. No country is perfect, and there are real challenges with housing and cost of living, but pretending Australia is some dystopian failure just isn’t supported by the facts. Australia can always do better. But compared to the rest of the world, we’re still one of the best places on Earth to live.

@TakedownMRAs @immyonboard i’m asking why OP cares about why the abc should care about viewer numbers, because they’re a public service. i’m agreeing with you

It's always amusing how conservatives genuinely just cannot grasp how businesses work. ABC hired Grace Tame as she is an extremely famous woman who will attract A LOT of listeners -- and I mean a genuinely substantial amount -- mostly of young people around my age who don't typically consume ABC Australia content. It's not a political hire, it's likely not entirely because she's an activist, it's not "sending a message" - It's hiring a famous Australian woman with 100s of thousands of followers to produce a podcast that'll attract young people to the ABC. Simple as that.

The ABC is facing overwhelming pressure over its decision to hire Grace Tame, leading to renewed calls for the broadcaster to be defunded. skynews.com.au/business/media…

@Timberwolf_1 @disco___cat So should buyers be forced to disclose their pre approved loan amount before being issued a contract for review or allowed to enter an open inspection? If they can’t pay the price why waste the vendor’s time?

@immyonboard because the ABC isn’t meant to be trying to run up big viewer numbers, it’s meant to be an unbiased news source. otherwise it’s really no different to the daily mail

@PaulZauch @disco___cat i’m a pretty free market guy, but the way auctions are carried out here is bullshit, i particularly hate Vic Labor but this is actually good policy why the fuck waste people’s time if their price is too high

@disco___cat Why should the seller of a property be forced to disclose a price at which the property “comes on the market”? Should buyers be forced to disclose the loan amount the bank has pre approved them for too?

@michaelsnape @IonaItalia yeah that’s what i meant fwiw re: your other comment, this stuff absolutely carries on here but it’s much more hush hush, and takes the form of an explicit sugar baby style relationship. years ago you’d even come across recruiters on tinder

Few guys (<5%) fill out the bio on dating apps in any meaningful way. Saying "I'm honest, loyal, generous and witty" means nothing (words are cheap). If you can say something about your personal likes, hobbies, experiences, that will up your chances a LOT. Avoid any negativity.
Jacob L@JacobL1994_

I think part of the problem with dating apps is that the things that make men attractive to women are not things that are easy to convey digitally I’ve had way more success IRL with women who wouldn’t have looked at me for even a microsecond on the apps.

In terms of cost of living in Australia, we always talk about things going up. So, I'm curious: in your personal experience, has anything gone down recently where you've noticed?

just get rid of it. what purpose does it serve that the sbs doesn’t?
John Macgowan@john_macgowan

I think you're half right. They know that ONP won't do anything meaningful about them, they'll simply slash budgets, they'll be martyrs, the remaining progressive cohort will simply make even more left wing content with a smaller budget, the guys who take redundancies will make even more left wing content except commercialized. Mandating against bias has failed, no one will force the ABC to platform conservative voices. I don't think anyone even knows how.

@Timberwolf_1 @TheKouk A budget deficit is not inflationary by definition. In economics, the relationship between a government deficit and inflation depends entirely on the state of the economy and how the money is being spent. At least Stephen uses his full name and doesn’t hide behind a pseudonym.

@Larryjamieson_ @GaryMarcus depends on the code and what you’re writing. for a lot of devs the different models are better at different things. for example, i’m cheap so im willing to accept deepseek, others prefer to mainline the claude api and run up a 500m bill

@GaryMarcus won't products like Code actually go to a winner takes all dynamic? whoever gets the most training data (i.e. most engineers using the product) gets a recursively better product

Why things will eventually fall apart: 1. Everybody, even Google, seems to be treating AI as if it were some kind of winner take all competition like web search was, in which Google taking over 95% 2. But everybody is building essentially the same technical solution with essentially the same data, so there is no moat. 3. If there is no moat, nobody is going to take 90% of the market. 4. With no clear winners, nobody can charge monopoly prices; instead, you get price wars and commodity pricing. 5. Which means everybody will wind up overpaying compared to the modest profits they will be able to make in an intensely competitive regime. Am I missing something?
Deirdre Bosa@dee_bosa

Alphabet generated over $160b in operating cash flow last year… yet it’s still issuing $40b+ in equity to fund AI compute (including a private placement to berkshire) One of the biggest cash generators in tech is diluting to keep up

The communists at the Greens, Guardian, and Oxfam pop up once a year to remind us they have no idea how money works. Oxfam’s latest report seriously claims a great deal of new wealth has come from AI and data centres. Only no one has made real money from AI yet. And data centres may well end up stranded assets in a few years. They don’t even understand the difference between valuations and cash. Disqualifying.
Larissa Waters@larissawaters

The 20 richest Australians have more money than 3 million households. Why is that a problem? Because billionaires have more money than ever before, and they’re using it to buy more political influence.

@ArguableM @db_econ that’s just a function of APRA rules, home loans get more favourable treatment for RWA purposes than most other lending

I've tweeted this chart before but it really isn't understood widely enough that we knocked nearly 3pp off of borrowing rates in the space of 20 years since the early 90s.
