  • Thanks for the response.

    It was about Minns being authoritarian, which he has a history of being one. He brought Jews into the discussion so they are fair game as likely some where in his ear, as I am not aware of him being Jewish.

    Can’t use predicate logic in dealing with groups of people. Using statistical measures it is pretty clear that Jews and Arabs don’t like each other, I don’t think that is controversial given the political rhetoric used by politicians to get those groups support. If it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck and walks like a duck, it is a duck. Same as trying to seperate Jewish from Israel, there where Israel flags every where during the Bondi tributes.

    Good luck with the site. I will not be participating any further as I think the moderation is a bit cooked. Allowing doxxing but not my comment demonstrates a different priority of values and Cloudflare sucks big time, cannot do anything with having to constantly refresh the page.




  • I know exactly want I am talking about. What happened to Optus happens to me all the time when developing custom software for Australian businesses. Sys-admin is all outsourced to a huge Indian conglomerates who have no clear idea about the scope of the network and no incentive to know it. Consistently claim a ticket is completed when it has not been and repeat 5-6 times before they blame the software, repeat until I have a full Phd thesis of evidence demonstrating it is a sys-admin issue.

    In the end it is all security theater because I write the software and could screw up the whole business if I wanted to be malicious.



  • If null references are a billion dollar mistake, firewalls are a trillion dollar mistake. It is a tool of oppression by despots. Each route needing an offering of fealty for passage.

    I am not exaggerating when it has taken 6 months to get some simple firewall rules updated to activate a new internal service. Blew my mind! Some of these system admins are nuts with how much everything is locked down, complete masochists watching people struggling to get software to communicate over the network they control.








  • I hold a similiar position without the contempt. To many layers of government with things like States being a concept of a distance past. With modern communication, the need for geographic divisions is unnessary. I have 5 or more members who represent me geographically(council,state lower, state upper, federal lower, federal upper) that is too many.

    Also I don’t have high opinion of Keating either, just another neo-liberal who made life harder for the generations after boomers.
