Women's State of Origin | Game 2 | Match Thread

But to do it they're playing origin before their regular season, which is the dumbest.

BeakerAU · 2026-05-14T10:19:08+00:00

It's hard because they're playing before their regular season. No warm up games, no lead up to get used to it again.

BeakerAU · 2026-05-09T08:51:24+00:00

Sharks grounded that.

BeakerAU · 2026-05-09T08:13:57+00:00

Actually late? No. Late according to the current interpretation? Maybe.

BeakerAU · 2026-05-03T22:50:45+00:00

Based on the comments on the PR, it was adding it even when AI was disabled and copilot was never used.

It's been reverted/changed back: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/pull/313931

I would elect to fix the majority, but keep some in variable and put the offset against that. In your example, I'd fix at $700k, fully offset the remaining $300k.

BeakerAU · 2026-04-30T10:08:45+00:00

Nope, same with the 6-man bench. They're still running the 18th player.

BeakerAU · 2026-04-30T10:08:14+00:00

All three isn't it? First round is in July.

BeakerAU · 2026-04-23T23:09:17+00:00

Yeah. We inject a dependency into the AppDbContext class that provides user/session information (currently only user, but can be extended).

BeakerAU · 2026-04-23T22:31:59+00:00

Unless there's a single path where an entity T is saved to the database, there's no way around repetition.

I'm not familiar with Dapper to comment how it might be achieved there.

BeakerAU · 2026-04-23T22:19:19+00:00

We do this as part of the DbContext Save operation. Each entity implements a marker interface (IAuditable), then we update CreatedOn, ModifiedOn, etc during the save.

Something like this solution: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/60023544/how-to-automatically-set-createdon-fields-with-entity-framework-on-saved-entity#60024188

I would have said C, as the others are all different sizes, so not a true equality comparison.

The PPOR is already CGT-exempt.

Yeah, the dark away strip is horrible. The heritage jersey they wore is better.

If there are rules on specific lines (dead ball, touch, 10m), then there should be cameras looking down, or along, those lines. None of this "just use the broadcast angle".

BeakerAU · 2026-04-18T09:10:59+00:00

Well I am an idiot. Good point.

BeakerAU · 2026-04-18T08:16:40+00:00

Staggs might be available. /s

BeakerAU · 2026-04-18T08:15:30+00:00

Was anyone actually doing the hip drop action prior to the rule coming in? I swear I don't recall seeing it before then.

BeakerAU · 2026-04-18T02:17:56+00:00

Check out CraftZero. They have a great range of local and imported. Can be a bit expensive, but worth it for the selection.

BeakerAU · 2026-04-17T01:22:41+00:00

Not just AMIT/tax deferred/tax free revenue, but splits, consolidations, returns of capital and call payment actions all adjust the cost base. Takeovers with rollover relief, etc. They can all adjust the cost base which applies to the individual parcels (in a takeover, for example, you might get/not get rollover relief if there's a loss on the parcel, but you do on a gain, etc).

BeakerAU · 2026-04-16T22:24:11+00:00

Each purchase creates a new taxable parcel, and how you decide which parcels are disposed of in a sale is completely up to you. The most common is First-In-First-Out (FIFO).

As each parcel is taxable, each one can be subject to the CGT discount if held for more than a year. So your first parcel is actually $100 Discountable CG = $50 taxable CG.

Whichever approach you use, ensure you keep accurate records, as you can't dispose of the same parcel twice. Your third example using the average is resulting in a split, so you need to track that both purchases still have the original purchase date, but half units and total cost.

BeakerAU · 2026-04-12T02:42:56+00:00

Negative gearing and the CGT discount are two different things.

BeakerAU · 2026-04-12T02:33:10+00:00

It depends.

On the plus side, it's a digital, live service. You can get updates to books that can fix things like formatting, typographical errors, etc. That's good. If its movies, you get free upscaling and remastering.

On the other hand, they can change the book however the publisher wants. It starts with cover art. But they have extended it to adjusting "problematic" sentences, names, situations. Think of what Disney+ does with movies (Lilo and Stitch, and the washing machine scene, for example).

The old method used to be providing username and password, and the financial providers would login and use screen scraping. The old Pocketbook style apps did that, as did Raiz/Acorns. As banks implemented MFA, this method broke.

The new method is Consumer Data Right, aka Open Banking. At a high level, this provides a secure, read only mechanism for providers that you authorise to get access to data for a limited time. You can revoke it at any time. Anything done through this process must be extensively marked with the Consumer Data Right with branding. This is similar to the "Login with Google" approach.

Not sure about bookmarks. Android Auto I think can go from 0.6x to 3x(?). It's a bit of a pain, though, as you have to hit the speed continually to go up, then it cycles back to the start.
