How to restore Australia’s national security

Major-General Michael G. Smith: β€œWe must finally dismiss the UK as a credible security partner – it is fully preoccupied and stretched in its immediate region and has proved progressively irrelevant as our security provider since 1904.” satpa.pe/3HnduqZ

Couldn’t they redact the bits that make them look bad, like they’re doing with the Epstein files?

I guess black paper has minimal uses.

Paragraph from the referenced Reddit piece:
β€œAlbanese can recall those days with a near-religious devotion. Anyone who’s spent any candid time with him since his ascension to The Lodge relays the observation that he does not give ground. Not to opponents, not to the media, not even to political gravity. He boasts – openly, proudly – that he β€œdidn’t lose one” minister in his first term. Not one. Not even when logic, optics and centuries of Westminster precedent suggested he should.”

The β€˜hobbits’ mysteriously disappeared 50,000 years ago. Our new study reveals what happened to their home For a million years, one of humanity’s last cousins lived on an island in Indonesia. Why did they disappear?

The time scales. They lasted 70,000 years. Geologically short but 14 times our recorded history. Climate change got them. theconversation.com/the-hobbits-...

Labor’s new AI plan puts faith in self-regulation In a bid to support Australian innovation in the AI revolution, the Albanese government has stripped back layers of regulation, which critics say hands big tech too much power.

Feel like there’s some cognitive dissonance in the govt on this. We don’t trust the tech bro’s to protect under 16s on social media but restrictions AI?
