The history of the Australian Labor party is in the union movement. But more than a century has passed since its formation. It has changed from its origins, ironically passing legislation that reduces the power of labor unions.

Star Trek movie. I forget which one.

I feel like this is a dumb question but why do web engines need constant development? I thought we had an established standard for HTML. Once a web engine matches that standard isn’t that sufficient?

Does China have capital flight laws? Can they allow the millionaires to leave whilst retaining the actual material wealth?

Do we not turn off our electronic devices to save electricity?

Or a “helpful” Israeli citizen created it, and the government exploited the opportunity

How much monetary support does Israel receive compared to how much does it earn from exports? I’m looking up their industries and Israel is into diamond cutting, which carries its own ethical issues

If we want an economy with a floor, so no-one is living in poverty, then we also need a ceiling.

They could have done it because of his name, but just not admitted it, or given no reason at all. Systemic racism is hard to prove, which means it can be remarkably persistent

Yes the proposed change to the constitution lacked detail, but that is entirely in keeping with the constitution as a whole, it is a “high-level” document after all. The detail would have come in the legislation that enacted it, with plenty of public consultation and discussion in parliament, no different to any other legislation. In its final form it would have probably looked a lot like previous advisory bodies that we used to have, with the critical difference being that it could not be disbanded just because the government of the day didn’t like it.

It is straight from the neoliberal privatisation playbook. Defund public infrastructure until the public complains, then “fix it” by privatising it

Actual management strategy is “you don’t know what your boundaries are until you push against them”

I doubt that the masks had anything to do with it. If someone reacts so violently to being asked to adjust their mask, they will react violently to practically anything.

Cool

Historically, didn’t fascism begun in Italy?

Lol. So you mean the history of the game? Or the history the game generates? Or both?

My workplace is transitioning a bunch of their data and processing to the cloud. When I look at what software makes the cloud work, there is soooo much open source software there. Big business is quite comfortable with FOSS

Apparently Firefox can synchronise your bookmarks between your desktop and your mobile app? Does anyone have experience with this?
