@woolworths, your self-checkouts are out of control and becoming unusable. The last few times we've used self-checkout, we've had to have a team member intervene at least twice, sometimes three times. (1/7)

Exhibit 4: [scans mushrooms placed into a plastic bag because there were no paper bags] [AI doesn't recognise the item as mushrooms, obviously customer must be stealing something] [wait for staff member to 'check our bags'] (6/7)

In among all of this, not once has a team member ever done anything other than simply scan their barcode and 'approve' whatever the system is asking for. So, why bother flagging things at all? (7/7)

Australia does not have a national postdoc scheme. @arc_gov_au Aust Postdoc Fellowship (APD) ended in 2011. DECRA replaced it, but few recent PhDs apply. APD was for PhDs < 3 yrs exp. 110 grants for 3 yrs. ARC also targeted 15% Discovery $ to "ECR-only" projects (< 5 yrs PhD) 1/n

Why is this okay? As in why do we continue to request forecasts from groups/inds that keep getting things wrong? Why don't we either find another forecaster or accept that forecasting is futile and give it up?

Here's the RBA's record on wage growth forecasts for example. LOL.

Faulty conclusions like this is what can happen when you don't use an appropriate DAG. The science has clearly shown that COVID was caused by the decline in Melbourne CBD traffic, which caused the increase in bike paths.
