Since the @Apple Bug Bounty Program is by far the worst program I've ever hacked on, I am going to be dumping all of the data/POCs/report write ups etc for everything found during the 4 months of hacking them. This will include POCs for vulns that didnt meet their bar for a bounty so wasnt reported to them, so you may be able to find ways to escalate some of them. Ill be uploading the data all this weekend.
Yo @EskomSePush you guys ready for 2029?
1. Water/municipal systems: already leaking R26bn/yr and 47% wastewater critical. Widespread metro collapses and health crises by 2028.
2. Skills base: 1m+ already gone, critical shortages accelerating. Tax and delivery capacity breaks around 2029.
3. Power: stable now but coal retirements create a gap. Severe loadshedding returns 2029-30 without gas and grid ready.
Years, not decades. Low growth and decay compound fast.

Gauteng had already spent R118.8 million on its e-Panic Button programme but has only distributed 2,000 devices, which cost R908.50 each. Lesufi must tell us and Parliament, where is the other R117,185,000.00 Has it gone to meet the R450m vinegar water scam.

I had real trouble believing that Google was actually doing this, but I just duplicated the result myself. The two queries were about a minute apart and identical except for a single digit.

If you believe GHL here you are part of the problem. The DA dropping to sub 50% will be a great thing. It will force them into coalition with the FF+ and the FF+ can then use this leverage to stop the DA's insane redistribution policies and their animal licences and their selling off of city land to fund their insane budgets.
What the DA effectively wants to protect is their grip on sole power in the city of Cape Town so they can continue their anti growth policies that have led to a lack of new houses being built and an affordability crises that is entirely avoidable if you actually allowed people to build and develop properties without having to beg daddy government for permissions that constantly seem to change.

Many of the things that make a country rich are invisible.Β
You canβt see or touch property rights, the rule of law or the ease of doing business. That makes them easy to overlook.
People talk about natural resources, but pay much less attention to whether ordinary people can start and run businesses without facing senseless rules and regulations.
People are much more willing to invest when their property is protected and the same rules apply to everyone, including politicians.
If youβre afraid an official could take your land or shut down your business, youβre going to think twice before risking your savings.
A country can have plenty of natural resources and still make it hard for its people to prosper.
This is going to age like a papsak bag in the back for a ford escort parked at the beach
