On my flight to CHCH this morning I saw: 1) A middle aged man using Gemini to send an email to his office to tell them he would be at the other office today. It took him like 25 minutes to have a conversation with Gemini to get the email right and ended up being "Hi team, working from ... today"

When I'm in government I promise to change the law that requires new state owned entities to have "kiwi" in the name. It's a crazy law and we should have never let it pass.

Can reporters please stop acting like using machine learning to detect things in images is a brand new technology. Any time something like that claims to be "AI powered" they act like there is a magic little man in the computer doing all the work. What an innovation!

OMG I'm a small business owner, a policy aimed at me...? Fuck yes I can streamline my exploitation of seasonal workers, make my working conditions less safe, and make employment disputes harder for my workers. And don't get me started on fire evacuation plans, they really limit my productivity.

Just in case you need a reminder, the work required to remove level crossings is 100% CAR INFRASTRUCTURE because a dangerously high number of drivers would rather risk their life than be slightly inconvenienced by public transport. This is the cost of having cars, not trains.

This speaks to the selfish mindset of every national voter and the national party. "I pay about the right amount of tax" must mean everything in their own world is great and they think everyone else is fine too. It couldn't possibly mean that they want wealthier people to pay more tax.

I support this! As soon as they build an extensive intercity rail network with stations positioned in the centre of each city, they can name the stations whatever boring non-work name they want. Go on Winnie, do it. I dare you. I'd love to take the train from Auckland Central to Whangarei Central.

I'm OK with an under 16 social media ban as long as it is also applies for over 50's too. Every argument you have about harm reduction for teens goes double for them. www.1news.co.nz/2026/08/24/s... #nzpol

Seymour and Peters hit back as Luxon moves on under-16s social media ban

The bill won't get through Parliament before the election, and the proposed system excludes a range of digital services based on existing Australian standards.

I've spent the last three years staring at CRL drawing and walking up and down the stations in various states of completion so I didn't think I needed to attend any of the open days. But man the vibe seems different when it's full of people. I'll definitely be at the Te Waihorotiu day.

Still fucking irate about this. "Protecting an existing way of doing things" Do you mean fossil fuel exploration? You be talking about the wrong party. Or do you mean letting like 4 companies steal the world's IP and knowledge without consent to sell back to us? That the "kind of future" you mean?

The English commentators have completely forgotten that Kane Williamson also dramatically retired from cricket this series, but he did it selflessly before the game and with zero fanfare, instead of during the game in the most dramatic fashion possible. (I enjoyed the drama, but Kane is the king)
