‘Sad day for publicly funded science’: up to 350 more jobs to go at CSIRO Australia’s national scientific agency announces more research job losses as it looks for budgetary savings

This is obscene.

The challenges facing the nation means we should be scaling up CSIRO, not cutting it to shreds.

While we are sending billions to the US for nuclear shipyards, our science and industrial base at home is falling apart for lack of funds and direction.

the messages are mixed

my favourite thing about New Zealand is you can put Lord of the Rings locations into Google maps like they're real places

‘The water and energy are trivial’ because it is often the most under-privileged communities that pay the price so you can use LLMs.
No one should be quite so cavalier.

I’m not bailing out the only people in the world who can actually afford to lose $13 billion. Go fuck yourselves.

Children will not be allowed to read certain books or learn certain narratives. “Research” will be performed only through one of a select few artificial intelligence tools…'
