How John Howard reshaped Australia – and not for the better Many of Australia’s most pressing social and economic problems can be traced to policy choices made during the Howard years, from housing and inequality to wages, tax and public services.

Housing stress, inequality, insecure work and budget strain didn’t appear by accident. They were built into Australia by deliberate policy choices during the Howard years, Crispin Hull writes.

Bernie hear describes the billionaire class as like the czars of the 19th century, believing that they have a divine right to rule.

(He doesn’t say No Kings, but he’s certainly drawing on the notion and applying it to Big Tech Oligarchs/billionaires)

I’m going to halve my publication output. You should consider slow science, too If we don’t slow down, the research enterprise is going to crash, argues Adrian Barnett.

Less is more. This aphorism is constantly on my mind. The scientific publication system is under tremendous strain, the last thing it needs is a massive dump of LLM generated/aided papers. If you love science, then show it some love. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

The Australian police punched and pepper sprayed protesters in Sydney who were demonstrating against Israeli President Isaac Herzog’s visit on February 9.

The police’s use of force to prevent protests is a further erosion of basic rights in Australia.

(1/11) If you live in NY, you’ve probably started seeing a new warning: “THIS PRICE WAS SET BY AN ALGORITHM USING YOUR PERSONAL DATA.” This mandatory disclosure went into effect late last year, and it’s the first attempt by a US state to grapple with a new generation of surveillance pricing.

Q:  "Republicans are calling on you to apologize for that post. Is that something you're going to do?"

Trump: "No, I didn't make a mistake. I mean, I look at a lot of thousands of things and I looked at the beginning of it. It was fine…It was a take off on the Lion King."

Sadly, this is where we are in Wellington...

Just confirmed it myself by viewing the video on Truth Social. This is real. He really did this and he has not deleted it.

Although probably good for us to take a look at it to see if there is something we can learn from your case. This is a rapidly evolving landscape and we're keen to do what we can to ensure our processes are working fairly, consistently, and efficiently.

Have you heard back yet?

This infographic from The White House, titled "U.S. STEEL PRODUCTION INCREASES," uses a bar chart to compare total production in 2024 versus 2025, but it employs a heavily truncated y-axis to exaggerate the appearance of growth. The vertical axis begins at 80.2 million tonnes (Mt) rather than zero, which makes the 2025 green bar (representing approximately 81.8 Mt) appear roughly five times taller than the 2024 red bar (representing approximately 80.9 Mt). In reality, this indicates a modest increase of approximately 1.1%, though the visual presentation suggests a massive, multi-fold surge in production.

I'd like to report a y-axis crime…

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Luxon's invite to Trump's Board of Peace for Gaza needs 'measured look' - Winston Peters Foreign Affairs Minister Winston Peters says advice from his ministry is being prepared "as we speak".

No, Winston. The Bored [sic] of Peace doesn’t need a “measured look.” It needs a swift and unmistakable “Get to fuck, Donald.”

Anything else and you’re excluding yourself from sensible political conversation in Aotearoa. You can no longer be taken seriously.
