We had an enrichment program from 65 to 84, but only on a small scale. At a similar time we were also only a week or two away from having nuclear warheads. As a nation the pivot to having nuclear weapons is quite straight forward. The techn

Just to give you a quick reply here, because its late here: Yes, the basic fire weather metrics are derived from the factors you mentioned. Different places globally have some different measures, but I can speak to Australia, Greece, Portug

Hi Geoff, I currently build ensemble based modelling solutions for bushfire/wildfire. Weather is a significant component in how fire behaves and is forecast. Whilst I have access commercially to several models and meteorologists throug

Can confirm that they do vehicles infotainment systems. NSW is also not the only state to have them.

In one state I cannot mention, in Australia, there are at least 4000 of these things by the side of the road. During criminal cases its not unusual for a vehicles MAC address to be run through the database of collected data and matched to t

Theres an entire other story here in your comments: ford building vehicles with a plastic oil pan / sump. That it just insane, even by the standards of "engineering says it will work and be cheaper", particularly on a truck &

Brisbane Australia here. We have at least one venue in the city that is a pub dedicated to original gaming - and it is a very popular place. You can go in, choose from about 40 different craft drinks on top, order some excellent food, and p

Seconded. This also happens on IOS. Another bug bear is being forced to accept company device management policies just to access a video call via teams - whilst i understand we can get chat and files etc, can we not have a Teams Lite where

For those abroad, even the notion of tipping can be absurd. Using that notion as a point of support for a payment system the levies fraud responsibilities onto the merchant and is very easy to circumvent, and the reason most other places mo

This is just not true. It is even less true for readers that support contactless payment.

On your point about contact less being hit-or-miss, this very much goes away when you have a number of options for vendors to choose from on the market, with terminals being supplied mainly by banks who want the business. Both competition a

This is exactly it. Even the best tools today cannot, and do not monitor all attack vectors. If you can't trust someone to be an employee in a position where they have access to your systems, they should not be in that position.

I wonder what compelled the authors to focus on Java first, given that it accounts for an ever smaller chunk of the code space and market share has been decreasing year on year for quite some time.

I find it difficult to believe that those learning javascript to build sites wouldn't realise that html could be edited in a text editor.

Not with the number of vaccines the federal government has been purchasing, or with the speed they've been rolling them out, or with the length of time its taken to approve any local manufacturing.

This is a terrible take. There is a tonne of freedom to do and say as one wishes in Australia. The guns are not absent, they are licensed and backed by background checks and regular license renewals that are tied to criminal history checks,

I'm very much in the same boat. I've had more than one attempt at gaming on Linux over the past two decades. The Linux situation is, still, a joke. Its better than what it was, but its still far more hassle than its worth. My free

"Building your own PC, is something that, is kinda dead in todays times though." The number of people having issues finding high end graphics cards over the past 18 months says otherwise.

Thats a whole lot of generalising, and a broad assumption at the end there. Even with UEFI enabled there can still be hudles to getting secure boot and TPM2.0 enabled without messing up the current install.

It definitely got better when MOG moved lots of tech people into their own agency. So, so much better. Like, a whole department of people not answerable to anyone but their COO, who had basically no idea how to support agencies. I inherited

For me personally, TPM is the concern because of how integrated DRM is with it. Light DRM is fine, and prevents casual rights abuse by casual players. Stricter DRM gets used to lock things up and it becomes pervasive and hard to discourage.
