Flew back today and was sitting next to a senior software engineer (Australian) who works for a large cloud based services firm. Really nice dude, but also as left as they come in that industry.
He was telling me that with all the layoffs at Twitter, it will be only a matter of time before the software goes completely kaput because the number of people fired and those who subsequently resigned means there aren’t enough people to do maintenance. I don’t have much of an idea in this field, but I would have thought Musk has allowed for this. Also, Mark Andresson (?) and a couple of other top programmers/engineers partially funded Musk’s acquisition and they would know. He didn’t really have answer for these points I made.

Dr. Peter McCullough: Covid “vaccines” are a US military program
This aligns with what Australia’s retired pharmacologist Dr. Phillip Altman has intimated in a recent article in Australian Spectator:
Covid confusion: reckless and illogical governments
Phillip Altman
6 December 2022
Coming from a background in Big Pharma and having been a senior pharmaceutical consultant in clinical trials and drug regulatory affairs for more than 40 years, the Covid pandemic policies (including lockdowns, mandatory vaccinations, vaccine passports etc) and the claims by our government that Covid vaccines were ‘safe and effective’ – despite the lack of evidence – did not make any sense to me.
I’ve been searching for nearly 3 years to find a reason to explain the apparent illogical and reckless policies and the near total denial of the harm done by the Covid vaccines to people across the world.
I think I have found it.
We were told by so-called ‘experts’ to expect a pandemic of biblical dimensions. There were unsourced news clips of people dropping dead in China, claims that hospital intensive care units would be overrun, and scary headlines declaring that the world would need to make hundreds of thousands of respirators to keep people alive. Masks were compulsory everywhere, some even advocated for multiple masks – at the same time! Then came the lockdowns which were followed by the brave new world gene-based vaccines deployed on the entire population – including healthy people, children, infants, and pregnant women – with little short-term safety data and no long-term safety data.
Nothing like this has ever been done previously.
The fear that was generated in the media using daily case numbers in ICU and those dying was palpable. It stopped most people questioning the science or rationale behind public health policies. Covid science was too complicated for most people to understand. It was easier to blindly trust the ‘experts’. After all, why would they lie? We now know the experts got it wrong nearly every time. The list of misinformation, disinformation, and lies is very long indeed.
Medical opinion, if it was not totally consistent with the prevailing government narrative of the time, was shut down. Doctors and other health professionals were threatened with de-registration if they questioned the safety of Covid vaccines or sought vaccine exemptions for their patients on valid clinical grounds. Important international medical journals imposed self-censorship of papers that questioned the safety of vaccines or the effectiveness of alternate therapeutics.
We now know the numbers of Covid deaths in Australia stands at about three-times that of annual serious influenza. Covid mainly affected elderly individuals with multiple co-morbidities, most commonly those in their 80s or older. The younger age groups were rarely seriously affected and the risk to very young children was virtually zero. Government figures regarding Covid deaths remain inflated because they do not distinguish between those dying with Covid as compared to those dying of Covid. It has been known for some time that the Covid vaccines do not prevent infection nor do they prevent transmission of infection, which means there was no scientific basis for vaccine mandates (official US FDA News Release 11 December 2020).
The Covid vaccines have produced the highest incidence of associated serious adverse reactions and death ever seen in the history of the pharmaceutical industry. Under normal circumstances, any new drug which was associated with even 1 per cent of reported or assumed deaths linked to the Covid vaccines would be withdrawn immediately – but the Covid vaccines have not been withdrawn.
The total number of deaths due to all causes measured around the world have increased significantly in parallel with the introduction of the Covid vaccines. Only a minor proportion of these deaths can be ascribed to Covid; the remainder comprise increased numbers of deaths mainly due to cardiovascular events (heart attack and stroke), cancer, diabetes, and neurological disease including Alzheimer’s disease. In Australia, these excess non-Covid deaths could amount to many thousands of people per year, possibly as high as 20,000. Nobody seems to know why these deaths are occurring and our health authorities have not conducted an investigation to find out if these excess deaths are caused by the Covid vaccines. In addition, the number of miscarriages have soared in several countries and fertility rates around the world have reported as yet unexplained discrepancies.
There is an increase in fit young professional athletes that have unexpectedly dropped dead since the introduction of the Covid vaccines, although this remains disputed with some researches stubbornly blaming Covid. Still, there are warnings that athletes should get their hearts checked…
To make matters even worse, our health authorities effectively banned widely used off-label drugs such as ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine and discouraged the use of Vitamin D – all of which have, at one time or another, shown potential. Surprisingly, health authorities here and overseas advised against any early treatment of SARS-CoV-2 infection – the first time in history it was not recommended to treat a serious infection as early as possible.
The impacts on our society due to the lockdowns in terms of the deteriorating mental health, devastation of small businesses, and long-lasting damage to the education of young people, seem to have been ignored. Vaccine mandates continue to this very day even though there is no scientific evidence that such mandates prevent the spread of infection and our health ‘experts’ stay silent.
Despite all this, our health bureaucrats have not admitted to any policy mistakes or recognised that the Covid vaccines may be killing or injurying healthy people. Indeed, they have doubled down and support the construction of detention camps, introduction of international vaccine passports, and are planning to hand pandemic control of health policy to the World Health Organisation (WHO) in a legally binding pandemic treaty which may mean that Australians may be locked down, forcibly injected and/or sent to detention camps for non-compliance to pandemic orders in future.
With so much evidence and accumulated experience and knowledge about Covid and the vaccines, why haven’t our politicians and so-called ‘health experts’ admitted their mistakes and changed course? Why are they so bold in their continued support for vaccines which have significant safety concerns? Why do they want to introduce totalitarian measures to force us to be vaccinated in future with unsafe experimental gene-based vaccines?
Furthermore, why would pharmaceutical companies cut so many corners in the development of a new class of potentially dangerous drugs, release these therapeutics onto the market, and take the reputational and legal risk if something should go terribly wrong?
Having worked with our drug regulator for more than 40 years, I refuse to accept excuses of incompetence or ignorance on the part of our drug regulators – they are neither incompetent nor ignorant.
The only answer I can conceive which easily answers this catalogue of questions can be summed up in two words: National Security.
In the wrong hands, a collaboration between pharmaceutical companies and government could pose a threat to citizen safety.
The point has already been proven that governments – through a mixture of mandates, economic coercion, fines, restriction of movement, and public bullying – are capable of forcing an insufficiently tested medical product onto the global population. Most nations were prepared to withdraw civil liberties until compliance was achieved, with very few capable of holding out against two years of State pressure. The proposed WHO Pandemic Treaty will only firm up this potential abusive marriage of power.
Is this really the sort of power we want to allow our leaders to wield? Should secretive relationships be allowed to exist between the private pharmaceutical industry and government? Do we want the Greater Good to permanently enshrine itself as a means to abuse in the name of some illusory noble cause?
Looking at the whole sorry pandemic mess through the national security lens explains absolutely everything. It explains the wilful blindness. It explains the lack of compassion. It explains the refusal to acknowledge tragic mistakes and lies. It explains the secrecy surrounding the alarming safety data. It explains the plans to hand absolute control of our pandemic health policies to unelected globalist power brokers. And it explains what might happen next.
I hope I am wrong.

Most GM tech is not to increase yield but help maintain yield though weed, pest and disease management.
Abiotic stress tolerance such as heat and cold are the holy grail for GM. Lots of production is lost to these each year. The food supply would be boosted significantly with little additional cost of plants were able to withstand weather shock events and still yield.

Not to mention insisting on unconditional surrender and landing at Normandy which extended the war and allowed the USSR to slam down the iron curtain over Eastern Europe. The Stalinist influence in the State Dept under Roosevelt was insidious and triumphant. Only Churchill seemed to sense the strategic mistakes that ensued though he could have no idea of the cause.
That essay Roger brought to mind a theme I sometimes see on US dramas, where wealthy progressives pretend to be completely free of sexual jealousy and monogamy is for the little people.
I don’t believe it, the endless pursuit of sex seems just sad, trivial and destructive.
I was never before aware that traditional family was apparently a manifestation of fascism that government needs to weed out.
Very interesting indeed.
Correct me where I’m wrong, in this year’s federal election wasn’t Jane Caro a NSW Senate candidate for Fiona Patten’s party?
That’s pretty sharp work there Jane. That English Literature degree is really helping you with… spelling your boss’s name. Such a difficult name too, a standard English language name, with only Five different letters.

Bolsonaro’s Speech translated: Part 1 of 2
{FFAA = Armed Forces}
“I told you I would come here, to listen to you and if I’m here it’s because first I believe in God second, because I owe loyalty to the Brazilian people.
Over the 4 years that you’ve known me, we’ve awakened patriotism in Brazil
the people went back to admiring their flag, the people went back to believing that the country has a way.
It’s not easy to put up with the whole system. I am sure that among my functions guaranteed in the constitution is to be the supreme head of the armed forces.
The Armed Forces are essential in any country in the world. I have always said, for the past 4 years, that the FFAA are the last obstacle to socialism.
The FFAA are united, the FFAA owe, like me, loyalty to the people and respect for the constitution, and they are largely responsible for our freedom.
How many times have I said that we have something more important than life itself, which is our freedom.
Decisions, when they are just ours, are less difficult, but when they start to involve other people, they are more difficult.
If something goes wrong it’s because I lost my leadership and I take responsibility for my mistakes, but don’t criticize without being sure what’s going on.
I’m not here to break the silence, but saying something I’ve always told you all.
A few weeks ago, if I said GOOD MORNING here, even that would be misrepresented. We are fighting for freedom even from those who criticize us.
Brazil just needs the laws to be complied with. We have watched, day after day, absurdities happen here.
Nothing is by chance, each one of us has a mission here on earth given by God.
How many times do I, after my prayer, ask “My God, what did I do to deserve this chair? What was my sin? Why?”
For me, being on the other side is rewarding for my body, but never for my soul. We all have a mission here on this earth.
We must bring people to our side, honesty, freedom of expression and religion, family, only then will we have a great Brazil for all of us.
Do you remember that secret session I had with ministers? I handed the DVD over to the Federal Police, because there would be proof that I didn’t interfere with them.
But if I hadn’t, they would still be incriminating me for something I didn’t do.
How easy it is to impose a dictatorship in Brazil. [Referring to Moraes tyranny]
It’s there, a video in April/20. how many friends we lost by speaking the truth to them.

he’s full of shit. If you read Musk’s tweets previously, he’s focused on the people that do stuff, like the network engineers, s/w backend, etc etc.
meanwhile..
Jane is a writer, with a degree in English Literature. She can’t be expected to get simple names spelled correctly all the time. Not with the patriarchy oppressing her & so much worry about poor Britney’s plight.
Bolsonaro’s Speech translated: Part 2 of 2
And today, we are living a crucial moment, the destiny that the people have to take, who decides my future is you, who decides where the Army goes is you.
Nothing like time to make each one of us better, I can only be happy if you are happy too and we must think in this way.
What is the future of Brazil?
What happened? Why did we get to this point? Are we slow to wake up? It’s never too late to wake up and know the truth.
The later I wake up, the more difficult the mission.
It is not “I AUTHORIZE”. It is to know what each one can do for our Fatherland.
I am just like each one of you who are here. I’m not a tangle of molecules.
We are united here by something Divine.
I’ve been silent for 40 days.
It hurts in the soul, I’ve always been a happy person among you. Even risking my life. We hold back a lot, we sacrifice.
I rarely had a moment of joy, on vacation, but I understand that everything I did was for my country, for my homeland.
But in everything, I say “THANK YOU MY GOOD LORD FOR THIS OPPORTUNITY!”
Even with war, with crisis, with a pandemic, we overcome challenges.
The economy is there… Generating jobs, and Brazil is ready to take a leap.
And what happened? Something happened that we did not expect under normal conditions.
I have never seen people in the world go to the streets for a president to stay.
I’ve only seen people in the world take to the streets to remove the president.
[PEOPLE SCREAM: STAY, STAY, STAY, STAY]
When asked: does power emanate from the people?
I answer: it depends on whom the people elect.Because if the people elect Fidel, as in Cuba, the people would be in communism…
Nothing is lost!
The end point is only with death.
THE END

They won’t be silly enough to again put a date on the ‘collapse of Twitter’
Roger, haven’t got to the end of the article yet but the main villains seem to be Freudians rather than Marxists, and coincidentally, Jewish Freudians. Freud and Marx are twinned for many, and both seek to subvert the dominant Christian ethos in the west.
KD – Perf pro tip. Always check the BOM “Current Perf Observations” especially Hillarys and Swanbourne before heading down to the beach. Insiders have a look at Rottnest too to see what’s happening off the coast. Looking good for this morning.
You’d need a team to look out for security loopholes and manage platform software updates and look at capacity management issues.
I’m guessing that most of those laid off were content management – censors.

Debatable, but the First Amendment was certainly breached by those DHS, FBI and CIA people who encouraged Twatter staff to block Tweets on political/free speech grounds. The relevant Twatter staff would be liable at least for conspiracy.

New Post: The War in Ukraine: Past, Present and Future: A Conversation between Michael Vlahos and Douglas Macgregor
I can’t recommend this conversation in three parts enough. Absolutely must viewing for anyone concerned with the Russo-Ukrainian War, but not only that. It ranges from American foreign and strategic policy over the last several decades, its imperial character and its reflection in the British Empire, to the role the new political elite that emerged in the immediate post-Cold War era has played in the former, and of their stranglehold on the institutions.

Daughter works at a big analytical outfit and they are putting on grads now same as last year. Their contracts are with the biggest ASX names and Govt. Sure they can get it wrong but they certainly aren’t stupid either. I think that certain sectors within are going to be crushed. Likewise within the industry there are numerous sub sectors and certain functions/roles will be culled out. They’ll keep the productive talent. Startups will be in deep shit. The riff raff at Twitter now gone were basically censors using algos and some code. I don’t think that sits very highly in the tech pyramid.
It’s absolutely clear why so much effort was put in to scupper Musk’s purchase of Twitter, and probably a lot of effort is being put in to pull Musk into line. Control of public opinion is now absolutely necessary for the GAE to continue as is and that means they need to manage public opinion through the MSM and social media. They undermined a presidency and an election through corrupt intelligence services (remember Schumer’s six ways to Sunday remark), a MSM that would amplify these lies and target anyone that was sceptical, and so on. Their success was the result of holding all the bases, the more this erodes the weaker but more desperate they become. 2023 is going to be an interesting year.

Piers Akerman weighs in on Chris Bowen:
The great Labor-Green renewables gravy train must be stopped before it totally derails the Australian economy.
Running on bombastic unachievable renewable energy claims, its engineer, Climate Minister Chris Bowen, and stoker, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, have to know it can deliver only blackouts and national bankruptcy.
Bowen’s questionable ministerial record under the Rudd-Gillard-Rudd governments should have precluded him from ever holding another senior cabinet position but presumably the dearth of talent and factional dealing saw him awarded energy and climate despite his time in the immigration, treasury, superannuation and small business portfolios.
It appeared from the get-go that Bowen struggled to understand how electricity is generated or stored, and it is now patently obvious that he has learnt nothing over the past six-and-a-half months.
His blind faith in the capacity of renewable energy from wind and solar farms, and the storage potential of yet-to-be built batteries and the yet-to-be delivered Snowy 2.0, Bowen is beyond belief.
Yet, as he remarked last week, more renewables will “firm-up our grids, providing more capacity as more and more power stations leave the power grid, as more and more coal-fired power stations innovatively close”.
How exactly he plans to “innovatively close” more coal-fired power stations is yet to be seen. Pointless destruction without any replacement power source is hardly innovative, it is outright vandalism.
With coal, gas and uranium readily available but placed out of reach by out-of-date ideologically-driven Green-Left policies, the Albanese government is setting up the nation to fail as it “innovatively closes” the coal-fired power plants which once powered our now all-but extinct manufacturing industries.
The planned batteries will not store the necessary energy to keep the lights on, and if we look at the European and North American examples, those virtue-signallers who rushed to buy electric vehicles will be keeping them in the garage or buying fossil-fuelled generators to keep them on the road.
The Swiss are already considering limiting the use of electric vehicles to essential use because of the power shortages brought on by Russia’s brutal invasion of Ukraine, and California’s electric car users were asked in September not to charge their cars during heatwaves.
The Swiss will also be asked to reduce the temperature of their washing machines, showers, and the use of leaf blowers, and seat heaters on ski lifts will be banned while video streaming will be slowed to standard definition to cut power consumption.
The hydro the Swiss largely rely on during the warm months is naturally reduced when winter freezes lakes and they take more energy from Germany, which is reopening coal mines, and France, where nuclear keeps things moving. Germans restricted heating buildings to 19C.
Albanese has promised Australia will reduce its carbon dioxide emissions by 43 per cent by 2030 even though there is no evidence that the less than a thousandth percentage of CO2 created by humans present in the atmosphere influences the climate, only modelling which has been shown to be serially flawed or mischievously manipulated.
Over the past fortnight, Senators Gerard Rennick, Hollie Hughes, David Fawcett and Ross Cadell have shown this is yet another Green-Labor pledge that won’t be met – just like the incessant promise to reduce power bills by $275.
“My understanding is you have to get to 82 per cent renewables on the grid to get your 43 per cent reduction in CO2,” Rennick stated at a recent committee hearing.
“Surely we must have a pretty clear plan and strategy in terms of how many transmission lines need to be built between now and 2030 to hook up enough renewables to get it into the grid, which is just eight years away. 28,000km of power lines?” he asked, to be met with obfuscation and denial from public servants and Senator Jenny McAllister, the assistant Minister for Climate Change and Energy.
The government doesn’t know how much the much-vaunted renewable grid will cost, it doesn’t even know how long the new transmission lines will be, and it hasn’t put the necessary $700 million in the budget needed to refit the proposed new gas-fired power plant in the Hunter to enable it to run with 30 per cent hydrogen fuel, or said where the energy will come from to produce the hydrogen.
We need to install “about 40 wind turbines every month until 2030” and “for solar, more than 22,000 panels every day” to achieve the Labor-Green fantasy, according to Bowen.
There were more than 120 public servants in attendance on Monday, November 7, and though this number dwindled to just over 50 on Monday, November 28, McAllister could do no more than bluster otiosely.
No thought of nuclear energy either, though we are hoping to buy and build nuclear subs, and more than 30 nations rely on nuclear power for base load energy.
Meanwhile, the definitive advice from the OECD in April this year is that nuclear is in fact the cheapest form of electricity generation.
We are being taken for the most expensive and nonproductive ride of our lives.
The bolded part is not innovative. It’s a deliberate desecration of Australia and it’s citizens.

PS, one of his talking points yesterday, about if we criticised Twatter for pro-leftard censorship, but are happy with the new policy, then we are all hypocrites, seems to have come from a leftard US site.
Boambee John, Monty has no thoughts of his own: he just parrots whatever the herd instructs him to say.
Poor old Monty us up there with Chris Bowen in the list of the left’s dumbest useful idiots.
It’s unclear whether the talking point came from the leftard site, or direct from the DemonRats. On balance, I suspect via the leftard site, m0nty=fa is too far down the chain to get it direct.
sfw, is Cairns one of those airports where the destination/arrival board uses First Nations names for other airports? So you go up the wall coz you don’t see (say) Brisbane, Sydney or Townsville in amongst destinations of Widerajuri, Pitjinjara, Kurapinai, etc.?
You end up keeping a really really really close eye on your flight number, in case you miss the three seconds when the board displays “Colonialist Oppressor” names?

FMD. The left really is full of stupid people.
No, Dungeness [since closed] took 20 years to build, with a Labor force that already had 20 years experience.
We’d be building it with CFMEU labor, so 20 years is an extremely optimistic estimate.
Basically, what Akerman is giving a pass to, is demolishing our CFPSs by 2030, then waiting around til 2060 for the Nuke Power Stations to be up and running.
It’s just Bait and Switch, he’s not offering anything constructive.

Study Finds Prejudice Against COVID-19 Unvaccinated Around The World (11 Dec)
Just after the end of the lockdown while booking a haircut I admitted I was unvaxxed to my hairdresser, who is a blonde in her late twenties. A week later I got an uncomfortable phonecall from her saying she’d decided for the sake of her business to refuse my booking. It was clear she was scared, so I didn’t say anything just “thanks for letting me know”. Fear of the unknown, and of the unclean, is a powerful emotion.
Climate Crisis, climate catastrophe, climate ARMAGEDDON..
Australians are getting first-hand experience of evil, expressed as government intimidation of citizens for attempting to look after their fellow humans and their families in particular.
Even in a country so mindlessly in love with socialist big government, I hope that the experience of the past three years is instructing people how not to do things and that eventually they stop voting for it.

Russian ‘kamikaze’ drone strikes knocks out power | Latest World News | WION
Ukraine says that over 1.5 million people were without power in Odessa after coming under an attack by the Russian forces. The Region’s Energy Authority warned that repairs would take weeks or perhaps even up to three months.
HB, where did you find the strikeouts? I have none – just the 4 – B I Link & Quote.
Can they be added to the same toolbar or is there another way apart from %>< stuff?
Winston – More like a really ballsy version of the game of chicken.
Russia has been methodically destroying Ukraine’s power and water infrastructure. Using hundreds of Kalibre missiles and Iranian drones.
At the same time Putin has reiterated yesterday that any attack on Russia proper could merit a nuclear strike of a hundred warheads.
Despite this Ukraine has launched at least three drone strikes at airports deep in Russia, with some damage to aircraft and fuel tanks. Russian milbloggers have been unhappy about this.
It’s interesting psychological warfare played for the highest possible stakes.
Ukraine is asking Putin “do you really mean your threats?” Which then throws the moral equation back onto him: what is the threshold for nuclear retaliation? Of course nuking Kiev in response to a few minor drone strikes on some Tu-95s would cause total anathematization of Russia by everyone on the planet for the next century. But if he doesn’t respond he’s made out to be a weak liar. It is the ultimate in asymmetrical psychological warfare.
So far the Russian response is sensible: just ignore the drone attacks and say nuffink. But even that is a loss to Russian prestige.
Yep, tell it to the stupid nazi bastards I have the misfortune to be related to, all of whom will never darken my life again (if they know what’s good for them).

Exactly. This is why I am so pissed off with the Gliberals and the National Agrarian Socialists.

Put simply, the Gliberals and the National Agrarian Socialists think that if they advocate collectivist idiocy, then collectivists will vote for them. Meanwhile, the conservative base fumes and walks away.
Signal example – I met up with my collectivist peers in 2015, shortly after the Yabbott had been turfed. They where all cock a hoop, laughing at stupid the Gliberals were for tolerating the Yabbot and how wonderful it was that Waffles Turnbuckle had supplanted him.
Me: “Does this mean you’ll be voting for the Gliberals at the next feral election?”
Peers: Uncontrolled laughter, punctuated by emphatic “Noes”.

Rabz, maybe we are but the young, they’re not fed up, they’ve been indoctrinated into a collectivist mindset. As my post on my nightmare lunch with wokey women attests, the young, particularly young women, love collectivism, big government and crackpottery such as “climate change”, “climate change”, “climate change”. Maybe they might think differently as they grow older, but I don’t hold out much hope.
