It's not me. I actually work for a living and I receive a salary. Many people I know with their own business plan to hopefully get out of it some day. They all make less than me but own a business of their own. Let's say this work

ps. Australia uses a progressive tax system. If you earn very little money, you pay a very low tax rate (or many zero). If you earn a massive corporate salary, you pay the top rate. The new 30% floor completely throws that out the window fo

If you start a business and grow it from hard work, you will now be taxed more. It's not just passive gains, it's all gain.

I'd assume, as an Australian, who works for a HK company and has travelled for work all their life, the long term lifestyle in Australia is probably better than those countries. I love HK and Singo but I am not sure I'd want to li

Never to feed the trolls ... but, how does my carpenter deserve $100 an hour when he is using an electric drill and power saw I can get at Home Deepo for $100 bucks? Most good developers are not employed because just because they can code w

I use keepass and have for years and I wanted to switch from using google drive to something more self hosted so I tried sync-thing. I have been a C and C++ developer for over 40 years and I found it one of the most obtuse things I have ev

Esp32s are amazing fun. I designed boards in the 80s and I still love tinkering with microcontrollers. The reflux control for my still currently uses a brushed motor controlled by PWM and I am upgrading it to a second hand pump with a brush

I saw the comment about it being hard to use the esp32 without the IDF and was about to disagree, but after one second's thought, the author is right. Access to all their chips is via some quirky lower level api. That said, considering

I wonder if their stellar academic record is due to the same shenanigans? Given that they were caught manipulating logs and deleting evidence to cover their tracks in 2025, that they did the same to their academic records is technically pla

As a biker, there is sure a lot of peer pressure to have a louder bike. My s1k has the factory msport straight through akro muffler and a valve system that opens the larger exit, also bypassing the baffles in the 'lunchbox' undern

Like prohibition and the overtaxing of cigarettes in Australia, ID fraud will just become criminalised and the government will lose all control. There are pros and cons to this.

Good old local Aussie guys write this. If you had something you wanted to report I'd just give them a call. We almost speak English down here.

That native sdk and the vscode plugin are very professional. There is a bit of a learning curve to get into it, but once you do, it's very functional and the developers are super supportive. They have fixed bugs for me in days.

Yes. To have to do a certification to drive on the apron. There are all sorts of rules about being careful to cross the runway. I imagine they were rushing to the 'emergency'. To hit a plane there must have been multiple mistakes.

I do this and my C++ is really like python to code in. But, if you work in a team, there will always be a bunch of people who come in and start using all sorts of exotic shit for their resume or hobby interest.

I feel something like this. All the popular movies are very similar, like all cars look the same. They have optimised it for efficiency to the lowest common buying denominator. I have started watch movies and series in foreign languages, pa

Masses of speed cameras and a 30kph speed limit. We have this here in Sydney, but it's mixed 30/40/50 between every intersection and most of the major intersections have red light cameras as well as speed cameras. It's g

If you want to do the same thing, build a cluster of complete machines, in a ligh-weight manner, just for the learning experience, you can use incus to create containers in the same manner. As they are all complete machines and you bridge
