⚡ Take a look at Gradle's approach to building faster by avoiding unnecessary compilation. 👀 gradl.es/3E8KdIR ICYMI: Gradle 8.3 uses persistent compiler daemons to improve build times over previous 8.x releases too. 🚀

The Maui fires are a good example of how conspiracy culture cannot and should not be reasoned with. There will be no come-to-Jesus moment on climate change or severe weather. There will just be more people claiming Oprah or Biden used a direct energy weapon. That's our future.

Wow, just wow. The planet is breaking. Antarctic sea ice extent is the headline for me this morning. There was actually a net *decrease* in ice extent day over day, and it's mid-winter there, peak freeze season. Extent is now 6.4 standard deviations below the 1991-2020 mean.

Thinking today about every journo who ignored Morrison's lying bastardry Who called him a 'master campaigner', not a lying bully Who wished everyone could meet Jenny Who didn't condemn Robodebt's obvious failure Or report on the Royal Commission Every journo who failed.

Brexit formally took place Jan 2020. The pandemic affected everyone, but post-Brexit Britain is in a starker place.

Simon Crean told the parliament in the presence of Pres Bush that the true measure of friendship was to tell a friend when they were wrong. And they were wrong on the Iraq war. He was right. Yet he became the only Labor leader never to contest an election.

“If government can afford to overfund private schools it can afford to fully fund public schools.” @CHaythorpeAEU nails it. It’s time that every student at every public school got every dollar they need to realise their potential. #auspol

More than a decade ago the Gonski report called for wholesale reform. So have governments delivered? National Education reporter @conorduffynews reports. #abc730

Everything is happening. While climate scientists have been talking about North Atlantic sea surface temperatures these last few days, what's going on with sea ice in Antarctica is even more extreme, nearly 2.4 million km² below the 1991-2020 mean, with a big jump down today.

Things began to look very unusual two months ago. Today the charts need no commentary, they speak for themselves. This is the Atlantic.

This is so unusual. That's a *huge* amount of energy being transferred to the atmosphere. Expect extreme temperature and storm records. Just the top few metres of our oceans store as much energy as the entirety of our atmosphere. I'm very concerned for later this year into 2024.
