I just finished reading Apple in China. A fascinating and insightful book about how Apple was able to scale up manufacturing in China and up-skilled China to the point that Apple’s reliance on China represents a huge risk and makes Apple’s current lofty position and valuation seem rather tenuous.

A brief but neat mention of Australia's peak fire season (October) on Land Line today. ABC pulled the fire spread video from this lnkd.in/gwbtsMBV site I set up to provide updated and dwnloadble animations of the fire season. Seeing stuff used and being useful is a great motivator to keep on.

Today is a good day for Australians to be smug about gun bans, compulsory voting, preferential voting, an independent AEC, an independent judiciary, democratically-regulated speech and a cultural default to “yeah, nah” when people turn cooker. #auspol

The final approval of the 45-year expansion of Woodside’s North West Shelf gas export terminal is equivalent to building 12 new coal power stations.

It will undermine the nation's energy security, drive up energy prices & is the greatest giveaway of Australian natural resources ever.

Media release
North West Shelf final approval a climate, economic and energy security disaster
Australia Institute analysis shows today's final approval of the 45-year expansion of Woodside’s North West Shelf gas export terminal is equivalent to building 12 new coal power stations.

Australia-specific data suggests BHP fuelled 50 heatwaves, Woodside 49, Santos 49, and Whitehaven Coal 41

Excerpt 👉 theenergy.co/article/expo...
Screenshot of excerpt from The Energy It reads: "Australia-specific data shared with The Energy suggested 50 heatwaves were made possible with BHP's contribution, 49 thanks to Woodside Energy, Santos was also 49, and 41 were attributed to Whitehaven Coal. Insights on Australian heatwaves included: • In 2009, 27.01 - 08.02 (Victoria, NSW & Tasmania). Reported casualties: 347. Made about 21 times more likely and 0.7C warmer by climate change. • In 2014, 13.01 - 18.01 (Western Australia & Victoria). Reported casualties: 139. Made about 7 times more likely and 0.7C warmer by climate change. • In 2018.12 to 2019.01 (without regional breakdown). No information on reported casualties. Made more than 10,000 times more likely and 1.2C warmer by climate change."

I am not going to support the confirmation of a federal prosecutor who wants to rewrite the basic history of January 6th and who believes the overturning of Roe v. Wade was the right decision.
