Interesting that "Peter Bergmann" was probably a chosen alias with a purpose... cryptically linked to "Engram Repent", perhaps symbolising his intent to erase his past.👀
Release of this film will change history!
The truth is coming 11/21. Worldwide on Prime Video & in select U.S. theaters. An explosive documentary that reveals an 80-year global cover-up of non-human intelligent life, with testimony from 34 U.S. Government insiders.
Reading random relational DB posts. Saw this old one in July... thought, fuck yeah. That’s exactly why I’ve been staging raw data in SQL Server long before JSON/XML: mainframe extracts, CSVs, whatever. Ops/ETL never saw it. I kept sources to re-run into normalised tables because…
JSON in a relational database is not only acceptable, but often encouraged
Hey @DataRepublican, what happened to the post deleted by @AussieStard? I'm curious to know what it was.
When Professionals and Public Servants Break the JOIN Logic: Here’s What It Costs What a surprise to see this old post on SQL JOINs has over 230K views! 👀 Before I retired, a common mistake I kept noticing was the use of INNER JOIN.... and sometimes with a WHERE clause, to…
How do SQL Joins Work? The diagram below shows how 4 types of SQL joins work in detail. 🔹 INNER JOIN Returns matching rows in both tables. 🔹 LEFT JOIN Returns all records from the left table, and the matching records from the right table. 🔹 RIGHT JOIN Returns all records…
Heartbreaking. This is NOT okay.

I travelled to Amsterdam twice, in 2019 and 2023, and often walked around the beautiful city... surrounded by historic buildings, bridges, and man-made rivers. I never saw anything like this during my visits. What is happening to the peaceful society of Amsterdam today? 😦

Australia exports 394716 tons of beef to us yet we export zero to them due to over regulations.
I know a young couple who poured their heart into renovating a stunning home in an elite Adelaide suburb through their custom building business. They were devastated to learn it was sold for over $4M to a foreign buyer who hasn’t lived there for 2 years. The garden is overgrown,…
Dutton's now saying that he will ban foreign buyers and temporary residents from buying existing homes. He must have missed the fact that we're already doing that... It comes into effect next week. #Budget2025 ato.gov.au/about-ato/new-…
It was quite sad (but for me, I was furious) to read the Science.org article about botched cochlear implant mapping in Adelaide and Townsville (affecting 141 and 59, respectively). I grew up with Oralism in Adelaide, which prioritised speech over understanding,…

"Reading books, watching YouTube, using LLMs (like ChatGPT and Grok), engaging in practical programming and database design, and exploring the internet can easily help you learn an order of magnitude faster than a four- or five-year university degree." - T.M, 2025 🤘😀👍
I can’t believe @maddi_who is criticising @DataRepublican’s tweets as ChatGPT-generated... classic tall poppy syndrome, where someone gets attacked for their success or differing views. Their focus on hyphens as a sign of AI use seems like a knee-jerk reaction, not an…
one way to tell if someone’s posting ChatGPT generated tweets is to see how often they use hyphens—. come up with your own thoughts you small-minded piece of shit!
I was involved in a handover process (Financial Data Mart) from a government department to Accenture in the early 2000s. Despite their polished communication... both in speaking and writing... they struggled to grasp the fundamentals of the data warehousing process. I had to…
4/ But other firms are still on high alert. Accenture, General Dynamics, and CGI Federal—firms linked to previous government tech failures—are among those under scrutiny, leading to rushed rebranding and policy shifts.
When I applied for a mid-range programmer role in a department within the South Australian Public Sector 26 years ago, I successfully secured the job after completing a rigorous practical test following the interview, ensuring that positions were awarded based on technical merit.…
At the risk of sounding boomer… tech companies once held rigorous, in-person interviews that could stretch six hours or more - I had a triple loop once. Candidates had to write code by hand on a whiteboard—no laptops allowed. Today, the process has become overly standardized,…
100% agree with Elon Musk. From a technical perspective, South Australia’s Public Sector information systems face significant inefficiencies. Excessive manual processes can compromise data integrity. Streamlining workflows and enhancing automation could address these…
Tech guru admired by Elon Musk estimates ‘over $100 billion’ in taxpayer money is being wasted or stolen trib.al/DH0o6Jf
A computer programmer is developing AI models and working in secret to find government waste. She is determined to make all the data public — has been working with DOGE — and says she has found over 100 billion in waste and fraud. Story Monday night at 7pmET on @newsnation.
I can confirm @DataRepublican’s post about Grok is spot-on. Tested Grok 3 with my prompt—bloody hell, it blew me away! Fits my DB theory perfectly. Been a slog building ASP.NET projects—half-done, sitting there for my site, a rough start. Hope Grok kicks me into…
Confirmed- Grok 3 outshines ChatGPT-4o for research and delivers a noticeably more responsive experience. Once it's available via API at a competitive price, I'll be making the switch.
