- Comment on One in five Australian renters are living without essential items and in poverty, peak body study finds 5 weeks ago:
Yeah there are a couple of metrics. The main two are the median salary of all adults which includes a lot of people not in the workforce (zero wage) and then the median salary for anyone “employed” (working any hours) which would be higher.
Dunno what the latest number are but at a guess mid 50s looks like the total median and 80ish is the median of job holders
(.median is used because mean is skewed by outliers like billionaires. Median means half of the people measured are below and half above)

Had a shitty week made all better by cat hing up with two good friend for beer wine, pasta and chats. Home now and feeling the stress drained away. About to go to bed because I am old. And that’s ok
- Comment on Australians don’t know how far the energy transition has come – and that’s a problem 3 months ago:
This is what makes me so mad about the fake nuclear debate. We had that debate 20 years ago and renewables won. Yes the grid rollout is behind and we need regional zones for connection and storage management but we are so much further along then people know.

Nah I know a few permanent WFH people at atlassian. The company makes a big deal about it so I would be surprised if it changed (this is in Aus)

Yeah the only people I know who have gone to Starling have done it because they are rural and can’t get close to 100Mbit speeds if they have NBN access at all
