“Leading #Climate #scientist Professor #SarahPerkinsKirkpatrick, president of the #Australian #Meteorological and #Oceanographic Society, said cutting one-third of the specialised workforce would devastate #CSIRO’s capacity to predict and model the effects of climate change.
“Basically, without the #ACCESS model, we’re running on a dial-up modem,” she said.
In a submission to a #Senate inquiry into CSIRO’s #funding and #resourcing, Science and Technology Australia chief executive #RyanWinn said CSIRO’s work was “deeply embedded in the broader #research ecosystem” in Australia.
“It is a vital partner in projects with universities and industry and hosts critical research infrastructure assets,” Winn said.“Any reductions to CSIRO’s capacity to maintain this essential support will send far-reaching and enduring ripple effects across the [research and development] system.”
Cost too much, too hard to study and develop, don’t bother. — #Labor

“Lifting the building on stilts like this also allows air to circulate more freely, as it does with #Murcutt’s own home, the Marie Short house, where itcools the house in the warm months and provides shelter for native wildlife”
How’d ya break your arm?

new property manager, fifth email in exchange following a request for a rent increase review and i'm asked her if her offer of a rental reference to 'assist you moving forward' is out of adherence to the rental property managers' ethical code or just her deep affinity with renters broadly
things going well i'm sure

Listening to Why Q needs U by Danny Bates, about the development of each letter of the English alphabet but with lots of wider linguistic and language detail. Highly recommended if you’re into that sort of thing 😊
So, English pronounces L two different ways, tongue right behind the teeth is Clear L, tongue a bit further back on the roof of the mouth is Dark L.
Clear L tends to be for L followed by a vowel, Dark L tends to be for L after a vowel. If you pay attention when you say “loll” you might notice the difference — depending where you’re from…
Danny: northerners [in England] tend to use Dark L for both sounds.
Me saying a bunch of words starting with L consciously using the Dark L: doesn’t sound any different.
Danny: so do Australians.
WELL OK THEN.

Ah yes, the Lucky Country™: where the tradie bogan economy is booming.
$800 for a 15‑minute job, no worries mate — that’s just the call-out fee plus vibes. Off he goes in a $150k yank tank to the next emergency “quick fix”.

'If the answer is no, the inquiry will say so and the lobby will be vindicated. If the answer is yes...then every Australian citizen has been the victim of a fraud conducted against their democracy by a foreign power and its local agents, for thirty years, with the full knowledge and active participation of the people they elected to protect them'
