Both major parties have pitched housing sector reform but experts say the lack of housing supply in Australia is not being adequately addressed.
Yeah I don't really understand this claim.
My partner and I disagree on a lot of things, but I can predict with near certainty where she stands on things because she my partner, we have shared a life together, and I know her.
That's nuts.
The mice here are very small and very fast. There's just no way I could get one with a knife and I'm pretty spry.
I've learned a few things about dealing with mice in my time...
If you've seen one you probably have dozens.
If they die in a wall cavity there's nothing you can do. They will stink, you've just got to wait it out. Used ground coffee in a dish or whatever tends to absorb the smell.
There's lots of different types of traps. You probably need to experiment with different types. For example the spring loaded ones don't work for very small mice. Also I dislike the no-kill ones because then you have to deal with a live mouse. One of the most impressive I've seen is like a lid on a bucket with a trapdoor - it's what farmers use in a plague.
Poison is another good option but be aware it usually has an attractant. If you can hear mice in your ceiling you don't want to put the poison in your ceiling because you'll get more mice in your ceiling. Put the poison outside to draw the mice out.
Generally insurance won't cover something like that.
Most people just aren't equipped to decide how much someone else should earn. Firstly they might be unable to be objective about people they know. Secondly they don't have the appropriate skills and experience to evaluate someone's performance.
Due to the first issue, that would make the whole thing a popularity contest. You'd pretty much have to "campaign" to ensure everyone liked you. Who cares about productivity when all that really matters is that everyone likes you.
Instead of voting for someone's salary, key personnel are evaluated by asking stakeholders to score them on whatever metrics. Stakeholders should include staff and clients and suppliers, et cetera.
Based on their performance you can determine an appropriate bonus.
Yeah. Taxing investors is going to take the heat out of the market. The only question is how much.
It was a broad progressive platform. I remember how disappointed I was when he lost.
I have young kids. This shit terrifies me honestly.
I can't help but wonder what Dad's take on this situation was.
Yep. That's what I said.
Oh man. You're right, of course. I somehow forgot that we were looking at a meme.
So, uh... that's not the diet of worms this article is referring to.
I think an all out strike as in, not paying rent, is a very serious and aggressive option that you'd only exercise in extreme circumstances.
Unionising provides a lot of power to tenants long before going that far.
For example, as a group you can afford legal representation.
I absolutely agree that both parties' housing policies are just throwing fuel on the fire.
Assisting first home owners increases demand which increases pricing. The obvious beneficiaries of these policies are people that already own houses.
The solutions are addressing tax concessions like negative gearing and capital gains tax, increasing annual land tax, and providing concessions for tiny homes and pre-fab homes.

Labor and Coalition housing policies a 'dumpster fire', expert says
Labor announced it would allow first home buyers to purchase homes with a 5 per cent deposit. It also pledged $10 billion to go towards building 100,000 new homes over eight years — exclusively available to first-time buyers — by way of grants to states and territories, and zero-interest loans or equity investments.
The Coalition's policy would see interest payments on mortgages taken out by first-time buyers on newly built homes be tax deductible for five years.
Economists have been quick to give scathing assessments of some of the latest policies, which they argue will drive up demand, and in turn, housing prices. Chris Richardson labelled the major parties' platforms a "dumpster fire of dumb stuff", while Saul Eslake called the Coalition's planned tax deduction "candidate for dumbest policy decision of the 21st century".
But housing experts say the policies are missing the crucial issue driving the housing shortage.
That's not really the focus of the article at all.
I think prefab has the potential to ease the housing crisis here in Australia.
Garcia is not an illegal immigrant?
I'm sorry that she lost her daughter but... this is not the way. Imagine feeding her pain and hatred for that photo OP.
Isn't it her daughter that died?
Yeah I daily drive debian stable.
With flatpaks and docker I never run into problems with my applications being too old or whatever.
Can someone help me understand what's going on here?
Are they trying to throw shade on China because... they think it will help win the trade war?
It's satire.

We don't have a TV but my partner and I watch TV or movies on our phones or laptops.
I derive immense enjoyment from knowing that the day is done. Like there's nothing else I need to do but put my phone down and then go to sleep.
Yeah it is very useful, just be aware that it's not an exhaustive list and not necessarily the most awesome.
It's a good starting point but it's always a good idea to check alternativeto.net
Another good resource is linuxserver.io they provide docker containers but rather than just having everything they tend to only have the best of whatever thing.

Mintox
As an 80s kid, I remember saying this word... a lot.
While other colloquialisms seem to have hung around this one seems to have vanished from common vernacular.
I have some questions ...
Did everyone say this, or only my siblings and I? Is it Western Australian? Australian? or Global?
Where did it come from? Does it mean or refer to anything or is it just random syllables?
Where did it go? Why did this word fall out of favor while others are still in popular use?

Spamassassin for Remote IMAP
Edit: nevermind. Turns out my email host is already running spamassassin and I can configure it how I wish.
My email is hosted at mxroute. I'm happy with their pricing and service and don't want to selfhost my email. However, their spam management isn't great.
I just realised that it might be possible to run spamassassin myself, which will set spam headers on the emails which my email client (thunderbird) can then use to decide what to do.
There seems to be a bunch of poorly maintained / abandoned ways in which to do this. I thought I'd ask here just in case any one else is doing this and can help me skip to the end.
I was hoping for a docker container (or compose stack) that provides an IMAP proxy and runs spamassassin.
Any ideas and insights welcome. My email juggling could use some improvement.
