The great thing about having a well-established news outlet is that you can just keep recycling the same bullshit for decades.

Fuck ’em. Read it at archive.md/8QRSb.
Where does western Sydney really start?
Lakemba? Burwood? Sydney Olympic Park? Or further west, at Parramatta? Vote on where you would draw the line.

Last semester I built an interactive notebook for my introduction to microeconomics going to do the same with my 2nd year macroeconomics subject.

I also embedded a 3D visualisation of the Cobb Douglas model of production.

Have your say on 2500 new homes in Parramatta North: www.sydney.yimby.au/blog/parrama...

This area has been stuck in planning limbo for a decade while heritage advocates keep delaying - this time they want to ‘press pause’ until 2029. We need housing now!

Trying to use a ePrescription (I'm fine) from Chemist Warehouses website, if you go to the info page it says "just provide ePrescription at checkout"

Yet when you go to add the medication to cart it says "you need prescription attached to profile before adding to cart"

Okay cool

I quite like this app, however I just reposted elsewhere. There’s a lot of AI slop on Twitter now. It just feels like noise.

I was trying to figure out how to use the ABS’ API.

The API is fine, but the docs are terrible. So much so I felt I had to talk to someone about it, but instead I put that energy into an article which can hopefully be help someone else avoid the same experience.

With half my feed now here and still on x, X ain’t what it use to be, and BSky certainly hasn’t lived up to a replacement

If you have nothing, what difference is $700 or $150 in rent a week if you can afford neither?

It’s a question often posed by supply skeptics & it’s a fair question.

While it reduces the threshold for public housing; I think this is a better answer. t.co/YvXyZ5VlYv

In October Randwick placed an interim heritage order on a few lots near the local hospital and around UNSW. It has since been revoked gazette.nsw.gov.au/gazette/2024...

With a solid upzoning you could house plenty of nurses, doctors, teachers, students and any downsizers.

What they are not telling you is 1️⃣ these sites have had the same building height limit for a century 2️⃣ You cannot rebuild these structures due to minimum room size standards.

The council continues to see these redevelopments take place and at no point thought "maybe we should rezone".

Sydney Olympic Park 2050 plan is up for consultation, and Parramatta Council are fighting against it because they think rarely-used event parking should take priority over homes for people.

Make a submission by this Friday: www.planningportal.nsw.gov.au/draftplans/e...

If you have a moment, and want to support more housing. The Parramatta Council is proposing less housing in the Olympic Park 2050 master plan, and it would be great to see submissions to the contrary

Potential for over 16,000 new homes has been deleted from Bella Vista and Kellyville stations. Looks like Federal Labor MP Michelle Rowland got their wish? Her electorate across Old Windsor Rd has been completely removed from the rezoned area.

What a waste of a the best railway line in the country.

Surely this is just going to make high density areas under resourced?
Why are there so many rules around where open a new pharmacy can open? This isn't a NSW thing btw, this is a federal government thing.

Currently when someone cannot afford to live in Sydney there options are

1️⃣ not living in Sydney
2️⃣ homelessness
3️⃣ sharing a room with someone

There are many such cases of 3️⃣

In one of the richest and most resource abundant countries in the world, if the solution to the housing crisis is “build lower quality apartments” then I’m afraid something has gone wrong with society
