<p>I understand someone having the viewpoint of America first, look after home first and don't get involved in foreign wars. He however, seems to go way beyond this.<p>His latest tweet connecting the terrorist attack to Ukraine, with no evidence. Is just repeating the Kremlin talking points.
For someone who should analytical, it is just strange.<p>The All -In pod, often tease him about being a robot.
I genuinely believe he is on the spectrum.<p>I have never heard or read his words showing empathy, even for the terror attacks in Israel and he is Jewish.</p>

<p>Bunnings & Ikea recently stopped selling this product.
My guess is Bunnings probably wanted to stop competition.
So they probably lobbied the government for the full ban.
After all, you  can't have the competition selling a popular product that they don't.
(Bunnings is like Australia's Home Depot or Lowe's)</p>

<p>Isn't this just marketing for the app? 
I could be wrong, but this is more than likely someone doing some 'growth hacking'.<p>I'm sure people will now go looking for the app.</p>

<p>Just a matter of time before the auto industry heads the way of the smartphone.
Foxcon is already pitching to be a OEM manufacturer for automotive brands.
EVs are taking over china, with many of them being from local brands, giving them the required scale.<p>Tech first companies like Tesla, Rivian, Xpeng and Nio will lead the way.</p>
