You're not qualified. Take that as a compliment.

AI got personal last week, and it's more complicated than we think A fake news story about me, a series of AI breakthroughs and a resignation in the tech world show that 2026 could be pivotal for AI.

So she only needs to see 2 or 3 people a week on this fee...? Maybe she has POTS, MCAS, ME...

Which part is terror exactly? I ask because none of this is new. The individual has been blamed for centuries, and any community response, or responsibility, is demonised as 'enabling', and a waste of tax payers money, and mostly because if you work hard enough, you too can afford the soft landing.

And if you add in the mystery of how this hue was "named" through time, as per Homer's wine-dark sea, it's an even more seductive narrative on #blue I loved your book. Please do write another! ๐Ÿ’™

If this whole show is about reputational damage, I think Reynolds did most of the heavy lifting with own goals.

You know how when the rest of us apply for jobs we need references and demonstrated capacity to meet the demands of the job? Well... I'm a little flummoxed on this appointment.

Healthy, happy adulthood is a huge cost saver! But long term perspectives are not common in government policy.

How can journalism be impartial? All information comes in a context. Language shapes impressions and words have connotations as well denotations. All communication has an agenda. I'd rather see a clause about integrity.

Children with autism to be diverted off NDIS under $2bn program announced by Albanese government Access changes to the NDIS will begin from mid-2027 once the Thriving Kids program has been fully rolled out, Mark Butler says

How does this save money if kids are being shifted from one funded program to another @markbutlermp.bsky.social?

What happens when they turn 10? They still need support.

This is just a lot of smoke & mirrors to dress up removing support from children who need it. #auspol #NDIS #ThrivingKids

I can't comment on your definitions here but many more autistic people will have better outcomes if well-supported as children.

When life is rich and full, people don't have time to post this kind of drivel. Clearly lots of time on his hands and chips on his shoulders.

And social connection is often a key thing to be defunded by ndis, deemed not a necessary support.

Why interpreting live music through Auslan is about more than just lyrics While familiar at emergency announcements and press conferences, Auslan interpreters are now becoming increasingly common at concerts.
