If it was 'warm' instead of 'slow' it'd be a tiny seventies playlist featuring only Graham Bonnet and the Eagles.

Well yes, “Telling people these facts is conflicting with my interests.”

Could a German economist fix the RBA’s inflation problem?

Great piece. Highlighted for me the class hit job of the RBA’s actions; increasing inflation to increase unemployment when their rises have forced mortgagees into multiple jobs/more hours to service higher mortgage rates. thesaturdaypaper.com.au/news/economy...

As the RBA admits interest rates are its only tool for managing inflation, alternative models propose dealing with supply shocks through price caps and strategic reserves.

I'm getting "Hope Again" on a t-shirt, but spelling it "Ho' Pagan" and sticking a small chatgpt logo on it.

We’ve outsourced embarrassment to AI now.

The super intelligence was probably just nervous in the presence of a ‘STRONG AND SMART (High IQ!) PRESIDENT’

Why would they generate the code rather each time than pass it to a specialised agent?

Why doesn’t the movie poster feature the title of the movie? Or was it called Suspense in Italy? Feels like a spoiler.

Without the size references I would have guessed Blue Tongue. The proportions look right.

Surely even being named Bo is a criminal offence?

I feel like that's akin to making your best worker the manager; 50/50 whether it work better.

How long has Ringo Starr been the Prime Minister of Nepal?

Googled. She looked Australian (how is that possible?). Digging deep into her LinkedIn CV finally found she must have been in Australia (if not Australian) with a decade of volunteering for charity up to 2021. It's a cool accent (it's not consistently, or overly, Australian sounding) 2/2

Was just listening to Freakonomics pod about Kalshi and they were interviewing Nicole Kagan - and her accent made me think she must be Australian, with a lot of edges knocked off. Oxford and Harvard educated I wondered if that could turn either American or Brit accents into Aussie. 1/2

Can’t help but this admission of a lack of occupational skills is deeply self-reflective of Trump’s cabinet on clueless toadies.

My first year of an engineering degree felt like an extension of my last of high school. I hated it.

Sorry they only had a black and white photo 😉. I did not realise there was such a thing as ‘duet singing’ and these guys are one of 200 species that do it.

Week 16 of #PineappleAllStops I believe I detect a slight yellowing.

I'd never heard of Claude François - but this album cover makes me think he left International Rescue after a nasty break up with Brains to follow his musical dream

He really does look like a thunderbird.

Well I guess, technically, that's not inaction.

I haven't yet heard what Nyadol said but, based on the fact she said it, and it enraged RW trolls, I'm on board.

The dots just keep joining together.

I'm so onboard with this. I mean; CEO's eat a disproportionate amount of earnings, they rehash old ideas, make decisions that attract liability cases and ignore context, societal impact and the long game. Perfect candidates for AI replacement.

I was today years old when I learnt that one of my favourite tracks from Aladdin Sane was a reworking of a 1970s Bowie release. Mick Ronson deserves cred. www.youtube.com/watch?v=16A1...

It is, for the people in the vicinity.

Turns out that’s nearly half of them.

I like Talbi but I don't think he's yet strong enough in one on ones and is regularly dispossessed. Also noticed it when he took the field for Morocco in the WC. That said he still brings a lot.

I'd like fewer lies, but would compromise for them to stop breathing.

Do you know why he's on the outter? I've been assuming he wanted to move given the clubs he was linked to.

I'm parochially embarrassed to say my first thought was Lewisham is nowhere near open water and is "1a couple of hours' drive from Seven Mile Beach."
