  "Do we have too many international students?" Stand back and look at that question. What you're asking is, is it a bad thing that smart young people come to our country, study and innovate and add to our research output. You're asking if we should have fewer smart people in our country. #NationalForum

  There is literally no relationship between the way algorithms work and the concept of freedom of speech. But honestly, social media is just not as important as artificial intelligence right now. Politicians are sleepwalking into a disaster that makes social media seem like a fight in the local playground. #Insiders

  Latest Lex Fridman podcast is 5 hours and 22 minutes long. I've said it before and I'll say it again: what's needed in the age of AI is EDITING SKILLS.

  The Victorian Labor Party doesn't seem to understand that it isn't the leadership that will lose the next state election, but rather the appearance of disunity. Worse still, it will likely mean they lose to One Nation. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-07-26/victoria-premier-jacinta-allan-leadership-challenge/106960114

  Good luck on fuel security. While the Orange Chaos Monkey is in the Colorless Abode, then the likelihood of any kind of security is challenged. #Insiders

  A heat pump dryer is a thing of beauty. No steam, no heat, ridiculously efficient from an energy perspective, and makes the weather totally irrelevant. I ❤️ mine.

  This is brilliant news. I would be happy for feral cats to be entirely culled to favour our little devils. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-06-28/cat-trapping-northern-tasmania-devil-population-increase/106813282

  First leg of the journey home. In the carriage and seated with 2 mins to spare. Glen Waverley station looks rather different even from a week ago.

  Second leg of the trip. Airport is apparently a popular destination this arvo.

  Back at the Qantas Club. Priorities are food and wine.

  Watching the inbound aircraft coming into the gate on flightaware and hearing the announcements saying "all passengers are disembarking" and saying, "bullshit". However, the announcements have also said that other flights are delayed because there were "birds in the engine". So there's that.

  FINALLY boarded my flight. Ages before we will depart because: overhead locker Tetris and stupid people.

  Landed safely but not at home. Back in Melbourne due to fog in Launceston. It's going to be a long night. *Sigh*
