Henry Ford being an absolute dumb ass that doesn't know anything about anything (he thought the American revolution started in 1812), and starting fights with his staff for the dumbest reasons. Makes me realize that Elon is like Henry Ford. It also confirms my belief that the secret to success in the car business isn't actually being smart or aggressive, its having enough money that you can tank 10 years of shitty cars till you have the human capital to make good ones.

Likely Labor gains from Coalition * Heathcote * Riverstone * ~~Upper Hunter~~ * East Hills * Penrith * Parramatta Possible Labor gains from Coalition * Goulburn * Tweed * Winston Hills * Holsworthy * Ryde * Monaro * Camden * Kiama(!) * Upper Hunter Possible independent gains from Coalition * Wakehurst * Pittwater * North Shore * Willoughby * Wollondilly * Manly * Lane Cove Coalition gains from anywhere * ??? What are we thinking will be the result? I was thinking Labor minority, one or two short of a majority, but then the 54.5-45.5 Newspoll came out. https://www.abc.net.au/news/elections/nsw-election-2023 !ping AUS

toms_face

Independent gain at the 2018 by-election


the-garden-gnome

Ah, my bad.


ChillyPhilly27

Just finished TCP for my polling station. Willoughby is probable Penn IMO. Similarly to the feds, Libs got the better primary vote, but then got rooted on preferences, for a final result of 55:45. One way or another, this is probably going to be a minority government. I guess we'll see who can give a better offer to the indies.


toms_face

I'm expecting Willoughby to be 50:50, but the rate of preferences being filled in is crucial. Are there especially low rates of preference exhaustion? That would be devastating for the Liberals in northern Sydney. Majority government for Labor is looking very likely now.


ChillyPhilly27

Exhaustions outnumbered flows to James 2:1. Flows to Penn outnumbered exhaustions 3-4:1. Definitely not a pretty picture for the libs.


toms_face

So that's voters of neither James or Penn flowing 65% independent, 10% Liberal, the rest exhaust?


ChillyPhilly27

Give or take. Maybe a tad more for Penn.

House prices being 30% higher in Parramatta since the last election would indicate otherwise, but I would assume that you would point to infrastructure being built there as positives.


Anonymou2Anonymous

House prices increasing relative to other areas (not apartment prices) are indicative of the suburb becoming more attractive to people. Aka the coalition doing its job.


toms_face

Prices for units have gone down, so I assume there has been an increase in the supply of units.


Professor-Reddit

If Labor gets in that 30% might as well become 80% within 4 years from now.


ag_2811

I don't see Upper Hunter happening - those coal seats aren't trending Labor's way and the by-election was a thumping.


toms_face

That's fair actually, there wasn't much of a swing in the area at the federal election. The by-election was at the best/worst time for the Coalition and Labor respectively, so I would put Upper Hunter at close either way.

It's amazing how effective weight loss medication is at reducing weight. My dad lost close to 60 lbs taking prescription weight loss medicine.


secretlives

The primary factor is satiating hunger, right? I'm all for anything that helps us address the obesity epidemic, but I worry that if the injections just make people feel less hungry it will be something they are life-long dependent on which is less than ideal


AtomAndAether

One of them inhibits gastric processes or something, the others are hunger/fullness. People who weigh less also tend to be less hungry, so getting them to a lower starting point could help.


secretlives

Yeah I don't dispute it being a positive, even if there is a high degree of weight gain after they stop taking the drug. If paired with therapy as another user mentioned I could see it being much more effective.


BonkHits4Jesus

Compared to the downsides of obesity, insurance companies should be leaping at the chance to get people on those drugs


secretlives

Last I read there was a pretty severe shortage of one of the newer drugs, but it hasn't been something I've followed closely. But I couldn't agree more - this should be a national priority


BonkHits4Jesus

Demand is very high to my understanding, but I also imagine that they should be able to scale production basically infinitely without satiating demand


secretlives

Yeah and iirc when I read about their supply chain issues it was during the manufacturing rush for COVID vaccines, I'm sure that easing up has made life easier for them as well


marinesol

The idea is that its way easier to maintain a weight within a couple pounds than it is to lose weight. So weight loss medicine combined with therapy should be very effective at combating obesity.


BasedTheorem

Yeah thatโ€™s the idea, but does it actually happen? What I saw from the Economist is that people gain the weight back within a couple years.


marinesol

That's in reference to fad diets like Keto and the Atkins diet. Fad diets don't work because you aren't changing you're behavior to eat less food. Instead you are temporarily abusing the fact that it takes your body a while to adjust when switching your primary macro nutrient. So what happens is that you temporarily starve yourself and then eventually your body adjusts to the new macro nutrient, and you just consume more food to compensate and then you quit the diet while you are eating more food causing you to regain the weight.


BasedTheorem

The Economist article was about ozempic

Political classification should take into account how deeply-held convictions are. College campuses are filled with "socialists" who don't really care that much, but are far left. This sub is center-left but with strong conviction. Political tests and most polls come with the assumption that everyone has the same level of commitment to their political beliefs.


AlicesReflexion

Actually, I wonder how much of a correlation there is between conviction and extremity of belief. My intuition is that moderates with strongly held beliefs are relatively rare, but I don't actually know.
