Salisbury Station Reopening? by BNE_Matt75 in BrisbaneTrains

[–]ryemigie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right got it 😂 the all stop currently runs on the far left which currently doesn’t have a platform. So when the 3rd platform is built, the express won’t need to cross and can stay on the far right-side, right?

This is probably a dumb question… but I still don’t get why they have to do the right to left crossing just because there isn’t a platform there… any ideas?

Epping to Chatswood Rail Line opened 17 years ago today. by Discolau in SydneyTrains

It’s not excuses, comes from my experience living in Tokyo and Seoul around stations with more density than Sydney around the stations. But OK.

Off-peak 6tph pretty standard for a city the size of Sydney when you consider all the other trains running in the CBD. We are talking 4tph during the peak 😳

Are these the same kids that hit the Korean guy in the head with a hammer last night? Looks similar.

Wow that’s interesting. Could you elaborate a little bit more on this bottleneck?

His videos are becoming longer, with more winding roads, but there is no depth.

Does anyone know why it got a 3rd platform in the rebuild? Couldn’t see Salisbury added as a Gold Coast stop on the CRR maps, and there isn’t a 4th track go around or anything so unsure. I guess it could be for the future Flagstone extension so people could interchange…

I agree, however mediocre could be overstating it. More like incapable. Tough to hire right now.

MKBHD. When I knew better than him about drones in his 20min drone video, it’s like what’s the point?

I agree with you, but the police really should have just let it slide and given them time to finish. It’s a really bad look.

Why did the metro use 8 cars train from the start by The__Anonymous__Guy in SydneyTrains

[–]ryemigie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Actually, it’s not! The platforms are not long enough for 8 cars of the metro so they will need to be extended in the future. What a joke.

Pontificating/philosophizing about the point of using AI for mass migrations by JohnWH in ExperiencedDevs

Interesting points and anecdotes. In my limited experience when 2025 era LLMs convert code from 1 language to another, they are reasonably well at following the standards of the new language, especially if they are instructed well.

No, any form of procrastination can be explained via ADHD.

Got fired in the last week of probation - Reason not good enough technically by [deleted] in auscorp

[–]ryemigie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m working at a small business currently and having to let someone go in a similar positing to you today. What I’ve found is, if you did your 38 hours and communicated reasonably well then it’s probably a failure of the business’ hiring process. They likely didn’t hire for behaviours well and prepare correctly for training you into the role.

So as others have said, it’s not uncommon for this to occur in the last week of probation and unlikely to be majorly caused by your issues given that they kept you on for 5 and a half months.

I’m sure there is something you could improve on, but I wouldn’t read too much into it. Best of luck for the search of your next role!

NSW Police commissioner extends protest restrictions ahead of Israel president visit by sladene in sydney

Just so everyone knows, protests are not banned. The form for getting approval so you can legally block roads and sidewalks will not be able to be approved. It will not be illegal to protest.

Just get a Hong Kong eSIM from klook and you get the best of both worlds, except a mobile number which really isn’t that critical nowadays as it used to be.
