This IPCA report on McSkimming and enabler/s needs a major systemic review of police command staff and systems to result.How deep does the rot go?Is just making up breathalysers results by lower level police a downstream reflection of the culture? New Zealand needs answers, not soundbites.

Just read the IPCA report, fucking hell. Each para felt like a hammer blow, pounding the last shreds of police leadership integrity into dust.

I see that Coster has been put on leave from his current job because of concerns about his performance in his last one. Before him we had Mike Bush who has just been reprimanded from his role as Commish in Victoria for taking a police helicopter to a conference in Tasmania…

An awful, awful example of what happens when you use AI scribe systems in healthcare without any meaningful form of redress for their erroneous output.
Setting a "compliance" policy that doesn't allow clinical staff to change AI generated fields without intervention is definitely a money decision.

a few months ago I said "having generative AI handle absolutely anything with regards to healthcare is a nightmare and should be banned" and a bunch of people made fun of me and called me stupid. anyways,

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

Asset sales come up because National's ideologies are not affordable so they can't and won't keep to a budget.
Asset sales come up because National's ideologies are not affordable so they can't and won't keep to a budget.
The question of asset sales seens to arise three or four years after tax cuts.
2010: tax cuts
2014: partial asset sale of powercos & AirNZ
2024: tax cuts
2026/27: asset sales? (If Nats win next year)
The reason is blindingly obvious: tax cuts means less tax revenue.Nats have to make up shortfall.

So it turns out... the US air travel system was incredibly, deeply dependent on federal funding to just run day-to-day all this time, to the benefit of private airline shareholders, when everyone thinks that state-run trains are leeching off the government. Weird!
