Can they be trusted to get/do anything right?

The SSL certificate of Transport Canberra's real-time feeds is currently expired. This has resulted in an outage of the MyWay+ real-time data feed, impacting the availability of real-time data across Transport Canberra bus and light rail services.

Hey #Canberra / #Australia generally, are you hiring? I'm an application support guy with an interest in BA, and I want some new systems to learn in the new year. Any industry. My magic trick is learning your environment and your proprietary, home-grown apps at warp speed, then going to bat for my users in your sprints and in your CAB meetings. Can do office or remote, but I have adorable cats that like to join standups if I can WFH. #GetFediHired

The Wikipedia page for Belco mall has some critical information.

“2009 - Construction begins on the replacement of the mall's original Travelators.”

Like, Belco mall is basically as old as I am. It’s been through a lot of changes. The two concrete multi-story carparks attached to the original building are still essentially the same as they always have been.

(Including the stairwells that smell like wee)

Youngest kid is back to school today after the coloured sands drama of yesterday.

So youngest kid’s school is shut due to the asbestos risk in the coloured sand, despite it being a ‘senior site’ (grades 7-10).

I think arresting anyone who doesn't appreciate the 2013 album 'Coloured Snads' by Gorguts is a harsh move, but fair considering the circumstances.

Ten public schools in Canberra will be closed today and at least another 10 will be partially closed due to potential asbestos contamination.
