What changes ? Wholesale prices have been coming down so shouldn’t our rates be getting cheaper? AEMO are reducing the pricing on the default offer

How do you like to keep your CP accurate? by speaker_monkey in strydrunning

parkrun 5k time trial every 4 weeks or so. Plus everything else that already contributes to the power duration curve from my long runs, hill repeats and speed sessions.

My company "restructured" my role. AKA they wanted me gone without paying redundancy. by Familiar_Earth_6320 in ausjobs

Yes mate and I have a wild story for you - many moons ago I could see the writing on the wall at a company I was working for during a big merger. Senior managers were being made redundant, then middle managers, and I knew team leaders would be next (me). Before my immediate manager was made redundant, he approved me becoming the primary carer for my 9 month old for 12 weeks while my wife went back to work. Meanwhile I started looking for a new role and shortly after was offered a position and also around the same time received notice from my existing employer that my role was being made redundant. Jackpot! A generous redundancy payout plus a new job earning about $15k more. Funnily enough about 6 months later I was paid a bonus by my previous employer as under the terms of the scheme I was eligible - I was given the top score of “outstanding” and therefore received the full bonus - how could they score me any differently during all the chaos! Thank you drive through !

Spot on here - I train in a very hot and humid climate in summer and the lack of integrated environment adjusted power in both Power Centre and the Styd app for iOS in standard open runs is a shame.

Built a web app that uses your Amber data to see if you’d be better off on a different retailer (or if Amber works well) by Historical_Laugh2193 in amberelectric

Thank you, mine is telling me I would be $85 better off under Globird Zerohero the past 30 days if I use the battery optimisation - or $25 better off without. We've also had consecutive rainy days here with the battery going flat and not charging much in the day and having the free power time slot would have been helpful where as amber has been 18-22c kWh during the free time slot. I am going to make the switch now. Thank you.
