just had a dream that they couldn't find any drummers available so I got called to drum for vulfpeck for one show on their live tour, and the people were vulfpeck but for some reason all the songs were too fighters, I had one day to learn the songs and do the show, and no one believed me afterwards

For folks here (rather than LinkedIn), my last day at NZ Police is 31 October. Taking a little break and welcoming our second child in February. Let me know if you have any part-time contract work coming up where I might be able to add value!

Have you ever made a cuppa soup and been caught between wanting more soup and wanting good flavour? Now there's a solution! Try "TWO cup of soup packets in one cup"! Don't let the taste go to waste! 1 out of 2 taste testers called it "yum"! Continental calls it "not what our product is designed for"

sorry you're experiencing record breaking temperatures and drought. Have you tried deleted some of photos of your grandmother about it?

We are running mock trial events in August to explore the evolving role of AI in the justice system. Through a mock pre-trial hearing, we will explore the admissibility of a piece of evidence obtained almost solely through a (fictional) AI tool. Is the NZ legal framework ready?
