Oh no, one of Australia's biggest companies doesn't like a proposal that would see Australia's biggest companies pay more tax. What a blow.

8152 at the head of the last ever Southern Aurora train sits in platform 1 at Sydney Central station before departure.

Col Joye's passing brings back memories of August 2 1986, when I rode the very last ever Southern Aurora train from Sydney to Melbourne. As we pulled away from platform 1 at Central station, over the PA they played Southern 'Rora by Col Joy and the Joy Boys.

RFK Jr. backs down all the time when he gets push back, so if anyone wants to call, here's the HHS number 1-877-696-6775.
I'd also call your senators/reps as well.

Bad news for rail heritage in Australia today. The 92-years old NSW Division of the Australian Railway Historical Society is selling its premises in Alexandria today. Thereโ€™s informed comment that the Society is in severe financial distress: www.realcommercial.com.au/for-sale/pro... #realcommercial

A Trump tweet. I've whited out most of it, leaving:

Crime in Washington, D.C., is totally out of control.


Washington, D.C., must be safe, clean, and beautiful for all Americans and, importantly, for the World to see. If D.C. doesnโ€™t get its act together, and quickly, we will have no choice but to take Federal control of the City, and run this City how it should be run, and put criminals on notice that theyโ€™re not going to get away with it anymore.

The man that committed one of the worst crimes in DC in recent history, who made sure 1,500 of his fellow criminals would go free, says criminals like him and his friends aren not going to get away with it anymore.

since US transit planning is allergic to international best practices, here's a photo of a septa train (philadelphia), an electric system, sharing track with freight trains. it's not "impossible".

track ownership in LA? lines like the san bernardino are fully owned by metrolink. no strong argument

I think weโ€™re on the cusp of mass attempts to automate teaching, and I also think it is going to be a massive wasteful failure in ways that will make the โ€œlearning lossโ€ of the pandemic look like a speed bump next to a mountain.

Belgiumโ€™s Arrest of IDF Soldiers Could Be a Watershed Moment Belgiumโ€™s detention of Israeli soldiers over alleged war crimes in Gaza has set a historic precedent for holding Israel to account for its war crimes. And itโ€™s a sign that the tide is turning against ...

โ€œThis is historic. No Israeli soldier has ever been arrested in connection with war crimes against Palestinians โ€” not in seventy-seven years. While we would have preferred that they be held in custody, even a limited arrest sends a message.โ€

the "ideal gf" meme but it's "cycling gf". she is wearing gigantic mirrored shades and a bright yellow hi vis dress. the various quotes and attributes, in roughly top down order:

- "they're not cop glasses"
- listens to the war on cars
- "do these pants make my butt look aero?"
- has incredible legs
- "i love getting greasy and lubed up"
- "brazilian wax? no, chain"
- has a spandex kink
- "the only deforestation i support is for john"
- "if another one of these cagers looks at me funny i'm gonna break their mirror"
- bike is cleaner than her
- "do you want to blood dope with me?"
- "we should go piss on robert moses' grave"
- *slaps headunit* "this bad boy saves so many watts"
- sleeps on carbon fiber
- insisted on ceramic bearing bedroom door hinges

Drainage culvert taking shape! I was going to get some sculptamold, but never used it, but I have used AND already had some spackle, so figured Iโ€™d give it a try ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ญ

(probably not as durable as sculptamold but I just wanted a thin layer to smooth out/cover the foam, so weโ€™ll see how it goes)

If ChatGPT is not consistently dependable, how are we suppose to use it for actual work?
Discussion
It's behavior and results can randomly change due to some OpenAl tweaking that's opaque.
On some days it can't even keep track of a fresh chat, it can't do calculations, it can't sort through a chat to extract relevant information, and when it's suppose to refer to source material in a PDF, it doesn't.
All because OpenAl trained it for fluency and basically to simulate whatever it can for user satisfaction.
I can use it for general chats, philosophical stuff, therapy, but nothing serious. I'm pro Al, but I approach it with skepticism knowing it's undependable (as I do with anything I read).
And prompts can be interpreted/executed differently across users' own interaction with their Als so it's not truly scalable.
How does the business world / leaders expect staff to adopt Al if it's not consistently dependable? It doesn't even calculate like a calculator. If the internet start claiming 2+2=5, that's what it'll answer with.
I'd use it for hobbies and pet projects but I can't imagine using it for anything "mission critical".
