Me, an atheist: Your holiness I stand ready to join the crusade against the demonic computers
Pope Leo XIV told students not to use artificial intelligence for homework, saying that AI ‘won’t stand in authentic wonder before the beauty of God’s creation.’

* New Zealand takes pies (namely, handheld meat pies) so seriously that there are National Pie Awards that get major media coverage. The New Zealand National Library has a whole dedicated category for “Pies — Competitions.”

We warned you that self-driving cars would just create self-driving traffic jams, and here they are.
The car industry has no solution to the shortage of space in cities. Public transit, cycling, and walking are all part of the answer, but cars are not.

Waymo privatized another public street:
Chanel approaching 4th, San Francisco
Possibly queued for a Billie Eilish show at Chase Center ~half mile away.
The light rail train on 4th seen passing in front of this roboherd has more passenger capacity than all of them combined.

Thanks to Jessica Hopkins for covering the elected member survey highlighting abuse towards politicians in local govt, & asking me about it. It's way worse for others too. I hope by talking about this we can change this culture. (Limiting replies on this for obv reasons!)

Musing on how transformative $4b spent on Wellington could be on improving productivity and wellbeing beyond maybe scraping ten minutes off some journeys if it doesn't just snarl traffic through the city centre instead.

Can we hook this into some speakers and play it on repeat outside parliament and every council in the country.
You should build bike lanes for people who are not currently biking and build housing for people who don't currently live in your neighborhood.

Some cities are actively pursuing growth. Others are stuck in a state of managed decline, merely cutting costs for loud existing homeowners while doing nothing to build for the future.
I'm increasingly worried that Wellington is irrevocably stuck in the second category.

The conservative minority on Wellington City Council never had the votes to kill the Golden Mile, so instead they played for time, demanding more reviews and consultation to delay it until a conservative won the mayoralty. Andrew Little has played right into their hands.

my most woke opinion is that any truck/SUV over 4,000 pounds should require a commercial drivers license, increased insurance/registration, more expensive parking, and higher punishments for traffic violations
"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

Everybody loves user pays applying to things they don't use. This has lead to, and to loud calls for, user pays for things not used by the well off but loud opposition to it applying to things those same people should be paying for

My father and uncle happened to see 3 of the new DM class locomotives being unloaded at Lyttelton last weekend and they sent me these pics. I thought they’d interest other railway nerds too. The DMs will gradually replace decades-old locos and be the core of the South Island fleet for years to come
