As Labor re-enters government with a clear mandate on climate, the North West Shelf will be their first big test. Can they be trusted to act?

Ukraine has supplied the U.S. with extensive intelligence and vast amounts of data on Russian technology, captured equipment, battlefield operational guides, weapon performance, and countermeasures against US provided systems. A shame no one seems to remembers or appreciates it

The greatest business battle EVER to be fought will come when President Elon starts trying to implement AI for federal processes.
The battle will be fought over which company’s AI will be used by the feds.
This is a zero sum battle that will create more chaos than this country has ever seen

Social media companies are such a weird business model to me. The company creates no value, it’s the ‘talent’ on the company that creates value through the content that they create.
