We can‘t be entirely sure who shouted at the 2025 registered Tesla “Did Grok teach you how to drive?”
But based on the driving behaviour I observed, it was a valid question.
If you can’t say anything nice, say it as a two-part question.
I introduced another parent to
r/DanielTigerConspiracy just yesterday after joking about a few shows with them.
20 years ago, my mentor drilled into me “search is the last bastion of information design”.
Now we’re gonna have to replace the word “search” with “chatbot”.
I don’t know why we’re letting UI/UX slide backwards in time to recreate fucking Zork.
As a non-USAin, growing up I had absolutely no idea what thanksgiving was. It was some strange American holiday rest of the Anglosphere didn't have.
That was until 1993, when Wednesday Addams finally explained to me.

Think that got blurred sometime around 2002 with en.wikipedia.org/wiki/America...
There was a joke in New Zealand round the 90s/00s about a new US ambassador being introduced. It went.
This is the leader of the opposition, they represent a party like the democrats.
This is the prime minister and leader of the [centre right party], which is, er, uhm, basically the democrats.
Aslan from the movie “ The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe ” saying “ Do not cite the deep magic to me witch, I was there when it was written”
The mood earlier this week when one of my direct reports tried to explain CSS to me.
The team was chatting about favourite movie quotes last week.
I mentioned that my favourite, particularly when this are a little tough at work or home, was the wise words of Gunnery Sgt. Apone.

"this" is pretty standard New Zealand since the mid-80s.
Jacinda was a freak accident.
/me suddenly realises he’s on call this week.
So yeah, that rapture is still happening today right?
That’s exactly the one.
Believe it or not it’s been studied. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/When_Pr... and is one of the foundations for cognitive dissonance.
Sorry to disappoint, but it ain’t gonna be that interesting.
Today I learnt about Lego Quatro.
The bricks were twice the length, height and width of Lego Duplo bricks and four times the length, height and width of traditional Lego bricks.
The line was disconnected in 2006.
I gave the “Testing is just Risk Management” speech again.
My apologies to all involved.
Also Josie and the Pussycats, which is older than Jem by about 15 years.
I remember being deeply confused walking out of Queen Street station and onto the set of World War Z.
In fairness, everyone else in the meeting is based in North America, so not their afternoon.
I know self-help Singh. 😭
But I was the one that organised the meeting.

Slightly diminish a band:
Not really better than Ezra
Growing up in New Zealand I always assumed that Cicadas and Monarch Butterflies were introduced, much like gorse and Crowded House.
But no! It turns out they’re both classed as natives.
My understanding is that they aren’t. But maybe I misunderstood my USAian colleagues.
In Ireland they are subject to income tax, PRSI (Pay Related Social Insurance), capital gains and deemed disposal (if you hold them for more than eight? years).
Let’s also not forget the tax structures are completely different, so those magical RSUs.
They are basically taxed as normal income like your salary.
You know what this means?
The very hungry caterpillar is in fact a moth?!
