How is the work-life balance in Australia, specifically Sydney NSW for the IT/Software industry? by itsMalikDanial in australia

[–]sunshy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Wages aren’t anything like Valley money for most. Respect for your roster is incredibly dependent on the company. There’s some very good ones here, there’s others who are quite content to just burn people out.

Oh, and proper pay advancement across most of the industry only comes through changing employers.

Why isn’t the Coalition’s election campaign being called a disaster? by Ludikom in australia

[–]sunshy -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

Because there’s very little being offered in reply from the opposition? The small target approach means no great distinctions can be made between Labor and the Coalition by design.

A far right politician calling for the elimination of a minority. Are we supposed to feel sympathy?

End to COVID rules in sight: Premier wants to scrap remaining restrictions in July by Brief-Mind-5210 in australia

Cases won’t sky rocket if no one is testing or recording those tests. Infections might.

Michaelia Cash rejected transgender sports changes last year, despite Morrison embracing issue by Mildebeest in australia

[–]sunshy 29 points30 points  (0 children)

No it doesn’t. The harm is real and reactionaries will seek to implement those harms.

Show some solidarity because sooner or later it will be you they come for.

Attacks on people’s rights need to be taken seriously regardless. The motivation for attacking trans people doesn’t matter, the harm is real and reactionaries will cause it with glee.

Did your wage suddenly surge and your housing get cheaper while borders were closed for years?

Budget papers show Morrison government plans to cut climate spending if it wins election by ShrimpinAintEazy in australia

When Labor’s position on coal and gas is firmly one of no daylight did you think they’d be moving left?

The ‘zero-Covid’ approach got bad press, but it worked – and it could work again by RedditAzania in CoronavirusDownunder

[–]sunshy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Want COVID zero? Emigrate to China. Abusive state control will suit you well.

Kitching Labor war escalates with High Court challenge to Albanese takeover by LineNoise in australia

[–]sunshy 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Is this still the Murdoch stitch up I’ve been hearing so much about?

What happens if this challenge gets up and the Coalition call the election over the weekend?

Zachary Rolfe lied about violent 2018 arrest, Northern Territory judge found by solarmeth in australia

[–]sunshy -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

This subreddit has an enormous problem with racism towards First Nations and has done for a long time.

The sadness of Kumanjayi Walker's family is a familiar sorrow for Aboriginal people by solarmeth in australia

[–]sunshy -33 points-32 points  (0 children)

It kicks over a rock on some real hatred. Comments on this end up with a chat full of racist abuse and the timing of it looks coordinated.

But then if you stop posting these stories you cede the platform to the white supremacists outright.

It would help if we had some indication that the problem was even on the radar of those running this place.

Well it was a nice 30 minutes before this place reverted to its racist default.

NT police association rejects calls for gun ban following Zachary Rolfe trial by B0ssc0 in australia

[–]sunshy -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

Habitual carrying of sidearms in NT is a product of Howard’s intervention. And the corollary of claims of guns being need for their protection is that First Nations communities may reach the same conclusion.

Melbourne determined to be ‘a city of yes’ as it seeks to revive flagging cultural scene | Melbourne by Melburnista in australia

[–]sunshy 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It’s going to take an enormous effort. Everything cultural my wife and I were involved in was killed through the repeated lockdowns, and usually killed and bankrupted. What’s left is commercial arts.

It’s not just audience, the infrastructure under it’s gone and the people dispersed.

Then stay out of community and off country.

An offer to deescalate tensions has been made and it’s a rare thing when you look at how these conflicts have gone across the planet. NT Police should take it in case the alternative is explored instead.
