April Fools?
I did notice when signing up that you have the option of getting 4 simultaneous screens running at ultra HD. Can any Australian home even do that?
My home connection and 4k TV can manage one stream, but no more and only just. It's around 14mbps for 4k on Netflix iirc, and my connection is like 13.5mbps.
breaking bad looks great in 4k though

Serco continues to be worse than useless, and somehow Fiona Stanley becomes even more of a stuff up. http://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-04-03/blood-and-bone-fragments-found-on-sterilised-equipment/6370096
I was chatting with my dad, who runs a pharmacy and knows a few of the docs that moved in there after the place opened, and apparently they just haven't been at all prepared for the sheer number of people they're dealing with, on top of all the other administrative gently caress-ups and that stupidity with the attempt to go completely paperless. He said that he'd heard that the traffic through the ED alone was somewhere around 50% more than they'd planned for, and that maybe that's why these things aren't getting cleaned properly.
Double, from memory. They were expecting 12k patients for the first 6 months? and they're on track for something like 30k so far.

What method did they use to predict how many patients they'd be getting, because it looks like however they figured it out was pretty useless. Or are patient numbers based on their staffing levels?
Either way, there are apparently a lot more sick people kicking around than the government was aware of, and presumably a lot of people who weren't getting the care they needed for whatever reason. Hopefully they figure out some way to cope with the demand, because I can't see it doing anything besides increase as time goes on, especially since they're downsizing or planning to close/replace older hospitals in the city.
They basically took the current traffic to Fremantle's ED and added a bit on, without realising that they're now getting a lot of traffic not only from the south-eastern suburbs surrounding Murdoch and Fremantle, but also Rockingham, Kwinana and the million suburbs that've sprung up along the freeway.

Some of that's because the state LNP are also on the nose and there's a massive drop in mining employment (they've lost about 25% in the last 6 months or so).

It is ironic, given the movie is about a man smuggling yet to be approved anti-HIV drugs into Texas to treat himself and others while facing opposition from the Food and Drug Administration.
By the way, paging anyone who is good with scraping online data (Murodese?) - in regards to the recent NSW State Election, is it possible to quickly scrape the data of state electorate polling booths and convert the results to Federal electorates?
For example:
Here are the polling booths in Ablo's seat of Grayndler.
Grayndler covers parts of the State Electorates of Canterbury, Heffron, Balmain, Newtown and Strathfield - according to Ablo's site (I added Newtown and removed Marrickville).
Scraping the First Preference data of each of the polling booths and matching the state booths against the federal booths will then allow us to get an approximation of where we sit.
Someone I know from the Greens did this manually, but I'm sure there is a way to automate this:
By the way, his approximate prediction for Grayndler based on these numbers was Greens 32, ALP 39 and Libs 22. Assuming a) the Libs preference us last and b) the split is similar to Melbourne, the ALP would win 55-45.
Yeah, maybe. I'll take a look.

Self-plug, here's one of my old papers (http://researchrepository.murdoch.edu.au/13195/1/ethical_Issues_in_peer-to-peer_network_monitoring.pdf) in which we calculated that piracy over a period of 1 year (taking into account the maximum penalty in the US) was worth $24 trillion, or 150% of total US GDP.

Yeah, possible but tricky. Polling booths have different names in each system, annoyingly.

quote:
People with disabilities raped, beaten, neglected while in care, hearing told
By Nicolas Perpitch
Horrific abuse claims detailed
People with disabilities have been found severely neglected, repeatedly raped, with broken bones and left humiliated in their own faeces for hours at a time, a Senate inquiry has been told.
The inquiry into the abuse and neglect of people with disabilities in residential and institutional settings began hearings in Perth today.
Witnesses recounted scores of examples of assault by the people who had been entrusted to care for the victims in aged care homes, group homes for people with disabilities and mental health centres.
Women with Disabilities WA coordinator Rayna Lamb said the abuse of disabled people was chronically underreported, largely because victims were often not believed or could not communicate what had happened.
"It's so common," she said outside the hearing.
"On one hand, it's assumed no one would treat a person with a disability badly. People just want to care for people with disabilities.
"But we live in a society where the attitude to disability means predators know that they can attack us, that they can abuse us, that they can treat us like poo poo because who is going to believe it?"
Ms Lamb said non-verbal people were particularly vulnerable because often when they expressed their anguish through actions, such as repeatedly banging their heads or screaming, it was wrongly interpreted as part of their disability.
Accountability lacking, cases 'go nowhere'
A group of six women from the disability advocacy group Bolshy Divas gave collective evidence before the hearing, citing 40 examples where disabled people had been severely beaten or raped.
They are worried about retribution, ... instead of dealing with the issue they tend to move residential facility or just sweep it under the carpet.
They told the hearing about a 12-year-old girl who came home from a school holiday camp for disabled children with a deep cut to her vagina.
Police investigated but the child had no spoken language and could not give an account.
"Basically, there's no accountability and it goes nowhere," Bolshy Divas' Samantha Connor said outside the hearing.
Quoting figures from Women With Disabilities Australia, Ms Connor said 90 per cent of women with intellectual disabilities were sexually abused.
Calling for a royal commission into the treatment of people with disabilities, she described institutions as the "perfect places" for abuse to occur.
"Institutional settings are just breeding grounds for people to be deprived of independent advocacy," Ms Connor said.
Acting chief executive of Advocare Sharon Richards told the hearing the rights of people with disabilities were constantly contravened.
She said one woman with dementia in a residential facility had to wear incontinence pads but they were only changed twice a day, making her feel uncomfortable and humiliated.
She told the hearing about an 80-year-old woman found to have green and yellow bruises and a badly fractured femur that had not been attended to.
Another woman was allegedly left with an injury to the top of her head after being hit with the buzzer used to call staff.
Ms Richards said people with disabilities often did not report abuse because they feared retribution from people within the facility they lived in.
"They are very vulnerable and unable, more often than not, to speak up for themselves," she said.
"They are worried about retribution, and, as I said in the hearing, instead of dealing with the issue they tend to move residential facility or just sweep it under the carpet."
The lack of family support compounded the problem, the hearing was told.
"A lot of women with disabilities do not have family support," Ms Lamb said.
"The family is often the source of our greatest oppression."
The hearing continues.

Just saw on ABC news. Only 1.7% of people rejecting immunization who do it are conscientious objectors - including religion.
e: gently caress, grammar.
Got a link for this? Can't find it, and I'm curious why the other 98% of people reject immunisation (medical reasons?).
