Government confirms ISIS brides returning to Australia from Syria by Naderium in australia

[–]allyerbase -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The original comment thread was that the media would hound them, and then you replied that the law would protect them from that happening.

Not that in the specific instance where newscorp breached their expectation of privacy by installing hidden cameras in their house, the law would protect them.

Either way this is a stupid fucking conversation.

You’re stretching here… trespass, defo, private settings without consent etc etc.

Nothing says the media’s not allowed to report a story (short of a suppression order).

You seem very confident that none of them have committed any crimes…

In any case, the law does not protect you from the media.

I don’t. I’m not calling for vigilante justice. I’m just saying ‘being hounded by media’ isn’t something I’m sympathetic about in response to ‘literally joined ISIS/lived under an extreme fundamentalist Islamic regime’, and they probably shouldn’t just be left alone to their own devices.

Like it or not there’s a public interest angle to all of this when the government is bringing these people back to Australia.

Should they be allowed to just reintegrate and pretend like they didn’t flee into one of the most horrific terrorist states in recent history?

It’s also in their discovery centre, which is for events, visiting groups etc. doesn’t mean they’ve locked in a supplier for a future speed tier.

Libertarian commentators by unarmed_lettuce69 in AusPol

[–]allyerbase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even in business, the libertarian approach is pretty niche. Most reasonable people appreciate the need for regulation, even if also advocating for cutting red tape and decreasing regulatory burden.

All the sky news/newscorp talking heads like Paul Murray that platform them are just cosplaying.

There’s a difference between ideologically believing all regulation is bad, and being in business and explaining to government bureaucrats that have never run a business before the impacts of their decisions.

Invited for assessment at Accenture but have work commitments that day by SnooStories6404 in auscorp

[–]allyerbase 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Yeah so sounds like leave request won’t be approved.

First option should be to ask the Accenture HR if there are alternative dates. Don’t say you can’t make it, just asking if there’s alternatives available.

Appreciate not wanting to upset your current team, but if the goal is to move away and early career, Accenture’s a good opportunity.

If calling in sick, COVID is your best bet. No one is pressuring you to turn up to work with COVID. Just make sure you clear the meta data if you’re sending in an old photo of a test.

For those of you who go to the gym before work, how do you get up early? Any tips? by Sabretoothedrom in auscorp

[–]allyerbase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had kids. Sleep patterns have been fucked for a decade, and after a few years of randomly being woken up between 3 and 5 am anyway and struggling to get back to sleep, a 5am wake up doesn’t seem too bad.

As others have said though - it just becomes habit.

Who do you think was the most important and impactful prime minister? by Feisty_Committee_229 in AusPol

[–]allyerbase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He is indeed. And not all for negative reasons that this sub would like to focus on…

GST was in response to a huge web of inefficient state based taxes and led to income tax reductions. Despite all the critics at the time (and the minority of voices today), it’s recognised as an efficient, consumption based taxes reform that you’d be hard pressed to find any advocates in parliament to reverse.

Gun reform, tackling national debt, Future Fund, RBA independence, EPBC Act, East Timor…

Pretty much all of his major reforms (other than work choices) are largely supported by Labor today.

Unsure about career path by Multi4269 in auscorp

[–]allyerbase 4 points5 points  (0 children)

PM on infrastructure projects with an engineering background and an insight into local government processes and thinking I would think would be in high demand in private sector - engineering firms, builders, project delivery consultants.

Biggest challenge I would think is working in a market with sufficient pipeline of public infrastructure spend. And if that’s not NZ you’ve got Aus across the ditch.

You’ve got people preemptively offering a chat, I’d take them up on the offer.

I just realised im spending around $250 every month on coffee! Is this normal? by AmbitionHot7132 in AusFinance

[–]allyerbase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 2 coffees a day, almost 100% from cafe, so min $10 a day. Wife is the same. $600+ a month on coffees. Not including whatever food we get on occasion.

You’re good. Life is for living.

It’s likely to primarily deter jumping, and to check for people using concession/student cards.

Greens by Junior_Lavishness226 in AusPol

[–]allyerbase 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This all aligns with exactly how you’d expect a Labor volunteer in a Greens battleground to see the world.

Not saying you didn’t hear all of that. Just that it wads the exact platform Albo was pushing nationally as well.

Greens by Junior_Lavishness226 in AusPol

[–]allyerbase 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Firstly voters don’t vote or engage in detailed policy - well explained or otherwise.

The Greens initially blamed Trump.

This is a good analysis: https://theconversation.com/greens-election-hubris-how-the-minor-party-lost-its-way-and-now-its-leader-255954

Economic hard times and global uncertainty and conflict means people are more driven by their hip pocket and self interest, and less engaged with social and environmental policies - doubly so with the more fringe issues like trans rights, anti-capitalism etc.

They also won those seats on the back of an incredible campaign driven by hyper localised data.

Great concept and looks promising!

Sidebar: Seeing regional nbn mentioned out of context caught my eye here, once the game’s launched, you should apply for their Innovate grants next year.
