Mission Command Responsibility - Lieber Institute West Point By using mission command as explanation for ignorance, Brereton report turned a philosophy of engaged leadership into a doctrine of distance.

Interesting piece. #MissionCommand #Profession

Yep - then all the predatory journal 'publishers', the number of HDRs I've had to pull back from these is sad.

Shutting down sustainable industry to protect a filthy one

Lost in the plot: how would-be authors were fooled by AI staff and virtual offices in suspected global publishing scam Book publishing websites in Australia, the UK and New Zealand appear to be using fake testimonials and AI staff pages to lure aspiring writers into handing over their money

I know authors can be desperate, but seriously, one look at those images and a glance at the text and it all stinks of Slop. www.theguardian.com/books/2025/n...

Only legacy style (that are good…). That said you could gloomhaven (technically you play for yourself but we always teamed it) as a one shot for example. There is a lord of the rings one that is good co-op as well.

And in most Orc worlds they get killed / ostracised 😢

Maybe it's my Autism Brain or whatever, but I don't really get why anyone who had access to this stuff wouldn't have splashed these horrific revelations literally everywhere the second you knew about them. Take these fuckers down.

The only net zero the libs are keen to commit to for 2050 is seats held

AFR headline: Labor to launch ChatGPT-style app in major government AI push

Talk about a cursed set of words

@kythera.bsky.social thank you!

Historic nappy valley and new family vibe goes Liberal, also need to see the religion stats for the area (guessing higher than the green, socialist, atheist inner north for example). Labor ignoring them forever ... tram what tram? what else?

I'm imagining that cover with a Dr Seuss style illustration...

Let's not forget individual temperament and attitude, I've had large strong people on a derby track that I'm not worried about and conversely small, aggro nasty skaters that risk injury to everyone...

Trans Day of Resistance events:

2pm, 22 November, Flinders Street station, rally for trans justice.

No Right To Discriminate
Cops Out Of Pride
Gender Affirming Care For All
No Pride In Detention
Sanction Israel

They are utterly cooked (as the young folk say). So disappointing for we CBRs as a viable opposition is urgently needed given how stale the ALP is.

How do universities justify signing multi million dollar deals with this company when it is nothing more than a thief and liar?

@fralafontaine.bsky.social

Absolute banger

Fuck 'em up.

I pledge to block every single Youtube channel I see posting AI generated science or history slop. Not because the AI imagery is misleading trash--which it is--but because the content is vapid and dubious. Give me kids who's passion for science or history pays for their home any day.

Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers: ‘We don’t want to be the biggest band in the world. It’s just fun playing with our besties’ The Australian rock band are ‘legit now’ with their second album Glory. They talk about performing while underage, playing with Dave Grohl and the ‘girl band’ label

They are brilliant - if you’ve never listened do now! www.theguardian.com/music/2025/n...

ALWAYS! Stand up for trans rights now, because they're your rights too. Trans rights are human rights.

As an intellectual exercise it would just pass a first year military sociology course... just.

causing poverty - a primary outcome of criminal law - does not support victims of sexual violence. Expanding police powers has never in the history of patriarchy reduced, halted, nor prevented sexual violence. Increasing inequality in fact strongly correlates with higher rates of violence.

I’m yet to be convinced that they help learning, and frankly as they get more complex (I’ve seen them with more words than the actual assignment) it’s even worse.
