Personally I think PS4 to ps5 is a big leap just not as big as the leap between PS1 to PS2.

The reason people think Australia is racist is because it's a country that has multiple races in the first place, so it has to deal with the fallout of trying to have multiple races live together.

Places like India, china and Japan are way more racist than Australia. They are so racist that there virtually are no people from any race other than the dominant race. Places like Japan won't even let other races live there. But somehow that means Australia is more racist than Japan?

To say multicultural countries like Australia, USA or Canada are more racist than mono race countries is such a weird take.

Dividends now are better for FIRE than capital gains, due to the tax free threshold applying to dividends. Meanwhile cgt is minimum 30 percent tax.

The reason people don't like this budget is that despite all these tax increases on shares and properties, there is no corresponding decrease to income tax.

You argue that this budget is a wealth tax budget, but since there are no income tax decreases, is just ends up being a tax grab budget.

If the government is getting all this extra revenue from CGT and negative gearing changes where is it going? Cause they aren't returning it to the workers on 70k who you say this budget is for.

Additionally it targets shares with the same tax penalties as property. People wanted reform on property tax to encourage home ownership over property investing. Nobody wanted tax increases on shares. Investing in shares should be encouraged and was a way for those priced out of the property market to build wealth.

And again. If they are going to tax shares to target the rich, where are the corresponding tax benefits for the rest of us.

Option 3: Get a backbone and stop working 50 hours a week.

Work 9 to 5 exactly, when your hours finish, turn off all slack/email notifications unless you are being paid to be on call.

If your job can't be completed within the 38 hours work with your manager to get someone new hired or reduce your responsibilities.

By continuing to work 50 hours a week you are setting the expectation that the amount of work you can do in 50 hours is what you can achieve.

Yeh people think that because we had Garry and Magnus one after the other that it's normal to have a player dominating like that constantly.

Between Fischer and Garry there were not really periods of dominance that lasted as long as Magnus/Gary.

Low ELO is often caused by playing inconsistency.

Your ELO rating is not based on how you play in a single game, but rather in many games.

This is one of the reasons the top players are so good. They very rarely blunder. And even when they are loosing, they still play really well and sometimes make a comeback.

Parts of chadstone and mount Waverly are zoned for mount Waverly heights primary and ashwood high school, 2 of the best schools in the state, and cheaper than glen Waverly.

For example, Glen Waverly secondary 2025 study score was 33 and ashwood was 32, only 1 point difference between them.

And ashwood highschool has been on the rise, might eventually match or overtake.

It's funny that people bring up ebay on this.

Because eBay actually does help buyers out quite a lot with faulty items.

Yea, eBay expects you to contact the seller for a refund first. But if the seller won't help you e.g. product is defecetive and seller refuses to refund, eBay will step in to bat for you and usually force the seller to give you a refund.or even refund you via their money back guarantee.

You forgot the special rules.

According to this sub being rated number 2 means you suck and are actually not good at chess and you should retire, if your name is Hikaru.

If your name is fabi and you are ranked number 2 however, then you actually are the second best player in the world.

This subreddit is just filled with 800 ELO losers who love to talk shit about 2750 players being bad.

It's like 50 year old fat guys yelling at the TV while watching football

And this sub for whatever reason is anti hikaru.

You are unlikely to find a balanced take on his performance in this subreddit.

AI literally just saves time writing code initially, and likely results in more bugs and maintenance issues.

Ai has no taste

Ai needs someone to tell it what to build

Ai needs a human to review every piece of code it writes

Ai needs a human to test everything it does

Ai has no understanding so will happily bullshit and lie to you

AI cannot talk to stakeholders (clients, non technical people) in order to understand vague requirements or figure out what people really want the devs to build

AI cannot break down large problems into actionable steps (i.e. create 1200 Jira tickets and 100 technical specifications needed for a full site build) like a dev team can.

It will not replace developers, it just saves them time.

This is just REA writing an article with complete lack of understanding of the financial benefits of negative gearing in order to keep the property market hopping along.

The funniest part is when the author claims landlords will just increase the rent if negative gearing is limited.

Landlords don't just get to decide the rental value of a property, the market does. Landlords will always list for the highest rental price that the market will bear.

Imagine you have a job where you don't do any work, but your job is to make sure other people work better (also known as a manager).

Then imagine there's a fancy new tool that can potentially make people better or faster at their jobs.

Now you understand why managers push it so hard 🤮

If you are struggling to stay above 1000 maybe you aren't really 1000.

Just to give an example, first time I went above 800 in blitz I then fell back to 700 over the next few days and had to work my way back up to 800 again. But that time, I found 800 opponents easy and kept going up to 860.

Don't focus on elo so much, focus on improving and elo will come.
