Accredited entities register This register contains details of Digital ID entities that are, or have been within the last 12 months, accredited under the Digital ID Act 2024.

Agree, their website provides little detail.

ConnectID was accredited by the ACCC (the Digital ID regulator) last year see digital ID register link below.

There is information on what is needed to achieve this accreditation here:

Hot take - even as a joke, I don't really like the idea of ppl blaming interns for taking down production

Even on the chance it happened to be true (and there are definitely cases where it wasn't an intern), if an intern was able to do that, that's a problem with the processes and systems in place

One day I might treat myself to 40mL of Lapis Lazuli oil paint.

A 40mL tube of Michael Harding Cobalt Teal oil paint is $97.95. 40mL of Langridge is $69.95.

It better taste god damn delicious when it arrives.

This is probably one of the most pretentious things I will ever say about music but I think albums made with streaming in mind are inferior to albums made to listen to end to end.

The sound and feeling they give is completely different and you can tell.

There I said it. I won’t take it back.

Oil painting is such an underrated hobby because what do you mean for three hours my main task can just be “don’t eat the paint”?!

Does anyone know how tf to turn of PyCharm's newly aggressive text suggestion? It has turned blog & README writing into an absolutely dog shit experience.

Hiya, one of the local disableds here.

While you're celebrating #Menulog closing down, remember: Woolies and Coles delivery is getting less reliable (at least where I am) and platforms like Doordash give me access to Aldi as well as ways to fix my weekly groceries when the orders are (very) wrong.

Victoria’s ‘adult time for violent crime’ reforms will not solve the youth crime problem

These reforms violate human rights obligations, contradict the evidence and will be devastating for children and young people in conflict with the law.

In an Australia first, I used FOI to get the AI chat logs of Australia's top national security bureaucrat.

They show how he used Microsoft Copilot to ghostwrite speeches and messages to colleagues.

This comes as the government looks to push AI use in the public service.

For the first four months of its existence ASIO was named Australia's Security Service. It was quickly changed and we were robbed of a great acronym.

Hey #kawaiicon one more thing as we head back to work: if you're going to try taking your full lunch break or finishing on time and feel like you're already "failing" that’s okay.

Consistency isn’t about being perfect; just show up and try your best each day.
