Saw someone I knew ran a marathon, so I went to search them on Strava. They have their map on and so I can see where they've started and ended their runs, unless they've hidden part of their route. That is super dangerous information to have on there.

Strava prompts you to make exclusion zones. It basically masks a radius around these points and won't show anything inside them. Eg, I have a 700m zone around my house. I don't bother masking work (where most of my runs start/stop) because that's in the city and could be half a dozen buildings.
People have to choose not to make exclusion zones.
Library books just went back. Grand
Awake for UFC. Going to be a long day ๐ฅฑ
Gym done despite severe reluctance.
Meal prep and I'm done. Yeeee
I think the cost of infrastructure in Australia is a joke. Was just reading that refurbishing the Queensland gaba stadium for the Olympics would cost something like 3 billion. A billion is a thousand million. How can it cost 3 billion to refurbish (not build!) a stadium? Are they putting in solid gold seats?
I read on the ABC it's because when we outsource work to the private sector, we also outsource the planning. So the private sector gets to decided timelines and the cost of everything as well

Asked my manager why my Sunday admin shift got cut. It was because one really silly paper wasting process became redundant. Yay to saving paper. Now they should make everything else digital. The company prints so much paper that just gets thrown in the bin, and no one gives a shit or wants to fix it.
I'm kind of sad to lose my guarantees $150 a week that required me to date stamp pieces of paper and enter invoices into the computer. But it is what it is.
