The full cost of the BoM website has been known for some time — I reported it in September last year — so why would management not be honest about it? It’s a story of executives meeting the firm ‘Accidenture’. $96m later… www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/news/2025/11...
Inside the Bureau of Meteorology’s $96m website fiasco
Global IT consultancy Accenture has been accused of ‘strip mining’ the Bureau of Meteorology during its years-late delivery of a redesigned website not fit for purpose.

Who can forget Santos ads in Australia's COP26 pavilion? But it goes back way further than that.

The ABC’s chase for crime’s news-lite audience is driving out the news we need!
A new report out of Harvard demonstrates why news — particularly in US — is being watered down in favour of salacious crime.
But what’s the ABC’s excuse for creeping ever closer to a commercial broadcaster?

This is great, but the scientific method has 4 parts. This is missing the essential steps of study some shit, and make up some shit that might explain it. These are critical before the said fucking around and finding out.
Technically “fuck around and find out” is the scientific method

This is civil disobedience‼️ We've asked 'nicely' for decades. Disobeying institutions that abuse power to deliberately harm those less powerful is a vital tenant of a healthy democracy. There is still time to join is at #RisingTide 👇🏽

If a Liberal State Government was wrecking the Victorian #StateLibrary & trashing the services it exists to provide, ALP members might be protesting. As it is, pretty much crickets. If you don't save the State Library you're going to lose more seats to indies, Teals & Greens. Interested now? #vicpol
