Timeline is pretty bleak today. Outta here for a while....
Literally, at work this morning:
Clinician: Patient should stop medication A, but must keep taking medication B.
AI VR transcription of this: Patient should stop taking medication B.
Seriously NEVER LET A DOCTOR USE AI FOR YOUR APPOINTMENTS. NEVER. UNDER ANY FUCKING CIRCUMSTANCES.
A guy who worked for the old regime told me at a party just before Bradford's regime came in, that it would result in higher prices and reduced investment in generation. He said no one believed him. Wish I could recall his name.
"Byron, could you have used a more friendly word than dystopian?"
Only if she ceases to be an NZ citizen.
CT scans are pretty important for detecting stroke, brain swelling, and aortic dissection.
It does. Here is how a native speaker says it. The macrons mean longer vowel sounds.

Well, out here in the colonies, you could use the Māori word Hōhā. Bored, annoyed, or over it.

Yes, that must be worry for cops over there. I have seen a couple of videos where the person had a concealed weapon, or one on the seat next to them.
It's unconstitutional! ;-)
Interesting that they've done this. I wonder if police overseas (i.e. US) have done this? It appears Florida might have, given some videos I've seen recently - there seems to be a speed and consistency lacking elsewhere. Also some US judges are onto it too.
Does the Mayor of Wellington truly believe the sea is now safe enough to swim in, or is he just…
…going through the motions?

Northanger Abbey. A short, fun, poke at the gothic novel genre by Jane Austen.
McCall-Smith, perhaps? Too light/stupid?

Luxon reminds me of executives who force you to do things you know won’t work and they never take that advice and eventually things fail and they throw their team under the bus and they get moved from org to org and then eventually getting pushed out and they do the same thing at the next company.
Voyager 1 is currently more than 24 billion kilometres from Earth and getting 17km farther every second and hilariously it is not as out of touch with New Zealand as our Prime Minister

Happy 'Former Freemason, 51, found drunk and naked inside a huge pipe organ with a toy gun and remote-controlled police car says he got lost while trying to hand out cheeseburgers to the homeless' Day to those who celebrate.
And, before you ask, I'm 49.
And textas too.
Of Course.
That’s a useful perspective.
Language is important folks - looking at the media here...
I have a rough night sleeping every night. Have done for a while. I wonder if cops turning up to move me on would help me sleep any better?
Also, who the hell called it rough sleeping? These folk are homeless.
This is brilliant, and also everything journalism should be.
I’m over live blogs and explainers. Looking for concise and accurate news reporting instead.
Worse and worse
Not today, though. ;-)
Just the GenX urge.
