A neighbor came to Nasrudin, asking to borrow his donkey. "It is out on
loan," the teacher replied. At that moment, the donkey brayed loudly inside
the stable. "But I can hear it bray, over there." "Whom do you believe,"
asked Nasrudin, "me or a donkey?"

The weird thing about the #genAI bubble is that everyone who's even moderately well-informed knows perfectly well that it's a bubble. I read quite a bit of finance journalism and skepticism/cynicism dominate there. In that respect it’s more like 2008 than 2000. Like they say, “the market can remain insane longer than investors can remain solvent”. But surely not that much longer?

"I want you to understand, regardless of your politics, the historical danger of a secret police. What happens when a militia is deployed in our neighborhoods and against our own people. Left unchecked their mandate will grow; the boundaries of acceptable identity and speech will shrink. I want you to think about elections in this future. I want you to understand that every issue you care about—any hope of participatory democracy—is downstream of this."

Australia's renewable energy boom is coming—and it could solve a surprising problem.
Over the next decade, we'll build more clean energy infrastructure than the past 30 years combined. But where will thousands of construction workers live in regional towns already facing housing shortages?
A new RE-Alliance report shows worker accommodation can become lasting community assets: refurbished aged-care homes, workforce villages transformed into suburbs.

SwitchedOn podcast: Renewable construction boom can help fix regional housing crisis
RE-Alliance’s national director, Andrew Bray, discusses how the energy transition can deliver important consumer benefits, particularly in housing.
