Anyway, given that the airforce needs the training anyway and it doesn’t cost anything to the taxpayer can I grab a quick trip from Wellington to Auckland tomorrow?

This is for the electoral commission to regulate?
ardrigh@ardrigh.bsky.social · 11h agoThis is a straight up abuse of public finances for party election campaigning. Is any other political party being offered Defence Force to use as a private jet? Are National accounting for the cost of these flights? #nzpol www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...

Man, those poor boys and poor woman and dog in Epsom this morning. As someone who lives near auckland grammar I always am remarking at how well behaved and orderly those kids are as they go too and from school. I hate to think of any of one of them fighting for his life and the other two injured

I think a lot of problems between people are made worse when people lead with their guilt over something instead of with their empathy for the impact. Guilt isn’t a useless emotion but it’s an emotion that we should process into empathy and responsibility (or not).

This is interesting because some of these fields should absolutely produce graduates who earn more than someone with no tertiary education so like using tax data to measure that is not at all a bad idea… but the response to the findings should not be cutting off access for future students.

Bringing down the government at this point most likely would mean disrupting the tail end of the government’s legislative agenda moreso than a snap election and with each passing day that gets more and more true
Still no money from ACC, still stuck here because of ACC. This shit is so fucked. Don’t even have money to buy more coffee for myself for tomorrow.
It's actually a little disconcerting now that I think about it that one of David Seymour's pet projects., the ministry of regulations, allows *USER CREATED* agents to be used inside government systems.
Kieran@nugmonster.cryptoanarchy.network · 2d agoThis is an extremely, extremely broad overview of how much the ministry of regulations is using copilot: https://cryptoanarchy.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:vraljvgixy22j4twn3ls436f&cid=bafkreifydrxifg5xljn5rzqqi7ztb7jmwqmlludeapqk4ucf5x5xqoai3y

It’s so weird to consider how much of a disability my dysgraphia would have been at any other time in modern history and yet it just isn’t now at least for me. It has been and AI might force it to be again. But for now it isn’t.

As horrific as it is to see neonazis welcome within NZ 1st & openly racist comments from its leaders (as well as all the other bigotry they promote), it’s worth acknowledging that the extreme views they espouse & actions they laud are embedded in aspects of NZ governance & authorities. 🧵 #nzpol

This will not only help people using screen readers but using styles in general will make you a more competent user and will save you and others time. It’s win win.
Accessibility Awareness@a11yawareness.bsky.social · 3d agoWhen using Microsoft Word or Google Docs, don't just make text bigger and bolder to make it a heading. That will work for sighted users, but screen reader users will miss that and just hear it as normal paragraph text. Use actual heading styles, like level 1 through 6.
Interesting when the Party knew the Post article was inbound…

Voting continues to be an essential part of democracy but without all the rest it does become little more than a gesture. The 18-24 year olds aren’t entirely wrong in their analysis.
This reflects poorly on all of us, and is also evidence of the incompatibility of neoliberalism with democracy. It’s less than 100 days to the election so it has to be about asking young people to please enroll and vote. But beyond that it has to be about building something that involves them.
