RT @levelsio: No it doesn't work and we shouldn't accept it. This is exactly how you go from a high trust society to a low trust society.

Not just in the UK.

Then, next: our health care system has now literally reached 3rd world status where relatives need to assist with care work at ChCh hospital. 2/2

Today in "WTF New Zealand":. Apparently it's now necessary to tell people how financially dumb it is to buy pre-cut vegetables. 1/2

Do I need any German-speaking software engineer in #Wellington or #LowerHutt/#Petone who's interested in Java?. For whatever reason I got two copies of my @JavaMagazin print subscription this month, happy to give one away.

If you want to get the best insights into cultural and social norms of different countries, my recommendation is to watch Lego Masters from these countries. Ideally in parallel or one right after the other. Lego Masters US, Australia, NZ, UK and Sweden are good starting points.

I'm really over all these dating, female and male expectations, virtual ai girlfriends discourses. What happened to people just falling in love? . You don't need an engagement ring costing 47 x your salary. You don't need to have a list of 49 million items that all have to be.

This is all true. But who wants to live in the UK (unless you have family there) these days?. And we all know that economically, most Kiwis would be much better off going to Australia, not just from a groceries point of view. No government whatsoever, regardless of left/right.

If I was Lufthansa, I'd have a first class/super status lounge and then a business class/*G lounge and be done with it. Maybe that'd increase loyalty of people to actually fly with them.
