In July Seymour celebrated the best Term 2 attendance since 2016. In August, NZ hit its worst flu outbreak in a decade. Severe respiratory illness in Auckland at the highest level since surveillance began. St John's busiest day in history. These facts are related. 5/

Renney smashed this debate. Told it like it is. No wonder Simeon didn't think their finance person should attend, and Seymour didn't think Henry should attend. And it's clear why, Renney would've wiped the floor with them all. "We're not a poor country. We make poor choices" #nzpol

Schrödinger’s cycle lanes, so busy it’s too difficult to cross the road and at the same time a huge waste of money because no one ever uses them

I think we should start measuring government programmes in Hayden Donnell's 'metres of roading'. Lowering the age of bowel cancer screening to 45? 5 metres of road. A year of Three Waters? 63 metres of road. Reading recovery? 13mm of road.

It's such an existential risk to so many businesses who have gone all in on this technology (regardless of it's quality). To not understand the true cost mechanism of an underlying service that is orders of magnitude more expensive than they thought is terrifyingly naive

It is increasingly difficult to believe that AI promises will survive contact with the real price of the AI services underlying them. It might be okay if the products had always been fronting the real cost and people had learned to use them sparingly, but that's not what happened.

Trust me, we in tech find those people just as irritating. Invariably they are 'thought leaders' or 'solutioneers' whose sole contribution in meetings is positing "but what if we could do magic..? 🤔" or "AI can solve our cow herding issue" (the favourite title I heard was 'innovation shepherd')

Limited number of prime ministers, but a lot of months under Prime Minister's to be data points. As ever, another graph I haven't updated since 2019. A Labour Female Prime Minister in a period of 10% growth has a lower Business Confidence rating than a National Male Prime Minister with -5% growth

This is pretty damning stuff for an online organisation holding patient health data. I hope GPs and Health NZ are putting the acid on other providers such as Tend and TheDoctors to ensure they’ve actually got their crap together #nzpol #newzealand blackveil.co.nz/blog/managem...
