South Africa lost that game, Ireland didn't win it in my view. I would rather ABs face Ireland than SA in a potential quarter final so could be a good thing #RWC2023

When you are at a conference and say I'll go get coffees, I say msg me your choice. The team then stitch you up with the most complex coffee order ever knowing the coffee guy has limited English. 😀

I love this from Reiko, Ireland fans sang their anthem during the haka (as is their right and good on them). It was like a home game for Ireland and ABs were expected to lose and had 60,000 people against them. Also the Irish dished it out when in NZ last year (fair enough they

First advantage NZ Kiwis get fast queue at customs in Paris with electronic gates South Africans have to join huge queues

About a year ago I got a letter saying I had a speeding ticket on the west coast driving a hire car. I was actually out of the country at the time so wasn't me, but I had hired that exact same car a year before in Queenstown. So Apex car rental gave my name to the police by

On intercept mode to catch @translaed as it heads to the southern ocean

Translated leaving Auckland by Long Bay yesterday as part of the Ocean Global Race. We may compete in the business world but friends on the Ocean and great to catch them leaving. #OGR2023

In NYC with the team at the Salesforce World Tour event. Drop by the Straker.ai booth to see the latest in AI translation technology and how you can use Slack, and not a complicated TMS to manage the entire translation process.

What is this bollix from Netflix where you get locked into a pathway you can't get out of, and you end up paying for an additional person on your subscription. Very average UI with no ability to cancel out. Now have to go through the hassle of asking for a credit.

Anyone got recommendations for a good NZ insurance broker for personal stuff? House, car, boat etc. Our current one is useless and we haven't changed for about 15 years.

The one modification (sticker) I have made to my boat this summer.

With an office in Philly only top to be wearing today. #SuperBowlLIX

As a Wanaka local I have no issues with a McDonalds in the hood. As I understand it tho, they were trying to build in a rural land zone & wanted zoning changed They could build in town on more expensive land, commercially zoned without issue. stuff.co.nz/nz-news/360575…

Great innovation from the team using Slack at IBM. 10,000 users translating 40m words a day. No translation management system required. slack.com/intl/en-au/cus…

Vibe coding... When we gave everyone electric saws, emergency rooms saw more accidents too. The barbarians aren't at the gate. They're deploying to production.🤣 FYI, I am a fan of Vibe coding and also own an electric saw.

Nice for anyone vibe coding and wanted high quality globalisation youtu.be/bpp6RcfkptM
