...and the teenager- who had just allegedly bashed someone unconscious with a baseball bat...... 'was issued a caution'
It makes me sick to my stomach. It should make every Victorian angry: and there is but one solution. Change the government that made this normal and get our state back.
what is a labor promise worth?, And why do they hold Victorians in such contempt that they believe they can say anything and no one will call them to account.
#Melbourne WOW. Check this one out.
That Labor Minister sounds just like Jacinta Allan.
#SPRINGST What a train wreck (pun intended)
Labor are treating the people like mugs.
$80,000,000.00 to a Gov Dept to DUPLICATE and announcement. #ABC730

Ben Carroll stood next to Dan Andrews and Jacinta Allan and promised a train station at Keilor East would be delivered by 2029. A few months later the project was paused and construction halted. You just can't trust this guy.
Transformational transport infrastructure for #MelbsWest. Work is set to begin on #MelbourneAirportRail which will connect more than 150,000 residents in Airport West, Keilor East and Keilor Park to the metropolitan train network for the very first time. #DoingWhatMatters

Victoria’s critical surgery waitlists balloon despite Labor pledge to blitz waiting times
heraldsun.com.au/news/victor… Victorians waiting for vital healthcare deserve a Premier prepared to front up & answer for his Govt’s record, not one who tries to bury it on the way out the door.
Richard Welch MP retweeted
Gutless act from the Carroll Govt. They finally drop the VAHI data on the very last day of the parliament before Victoria votes.
It was what we knew… an increase in Victorians waiting for surgery.
Time for a fresh start. And time to fix the mess Labor has created. #springst

🇦🇺🇮🇳 40 YEARS OF BUILDING AUSTRALIA–INDIA BUSINESS TIES: Melbourne’s business and political leaders came together as the Australia India Business Council marked its 40th anniversary at the Australia India Address 2026.

@ANZ_Newsroom CEO Nuno Matos delivered the keynote, alongside senior leaders from Orica and @Wipro, as discussions focused on taking the relationship “Beyond ECTA” and turning closer ties into real trade and investment.
Victorian Minister @NatalieSuleyman declared Victoria “open for business”, while Shadow Minister @RichardWelchMP opened in Hindi — “Namaste, aap kaise ho?” — and recalled his 15 years living and working as an entrepreneur in India.
💰 With Australia and India aiming for $100 billion in bilateral trade by 2030, the message from Melbourne was clear: the relationship is strong, but there is much more business to be done.

Honestly, the state is run by lunatics- who couldn't care less what they spend your money on.
#Please put sane people in charge in November.

Compute is now emerging as the hard constraint on model growth and performance ; meaning models increasingly complete on that basis as much as the model alone: meaning more model-owned data centres

While we're busy building Data Centres, and new products and working out changes to business models, and finding advances in medicine and science, - it is the ethical layer that must underpin everything... if we don't, we will miss opportunities, and in failing to fulfill its potential, paint ourselves into corners; and our ongoing ability to adapt to rapid change will be a mess of conflicting intentions, remedies and regrets.

The specific metric will be different business to business, but conceptually- this is the correct way to measure the benefit of AI your business:

Now i don't pretend to know if this is the real deal or not- but it does work as an illustration of the potential dilemma for how IP works in the future.
If you can apply AI, and 3D printing to robotics then what's the barrier to entry into robotics?
Companies have spent $b over the past 15-years to develop humanoid robotics- but if that investment might be instantly commoditised, then what for 'patient capital' being applied to new developments and invention? Will the incentive be gone?
And there are many other potential IP issues beyond this;
A sustainable treatment for IP is yet another area of the AI transition we will need to plan for and navigate.
What's your thoughts?

it's unsustainable, and ruinous.

View the report and associated data dashboard here: audit.vic.gov.au/report/audi…

ALT Gross debt in the general government sector grew by $19.0 billion to $187.9 billion, faster than revenue and economic growth
ALT Emerging risks may affect the state's ability to meet its short-term financial targets and sustain long-term fiscal stability
