#aoteaora — Public Fediverse posts

Jakub Jurkiewicz and I have been talking for a while about creating an event that feels a little different — less about broadcasting ideas, and more about building them together.

We’re calling it BEACON

🧭 It’s a one-day event for technical leaders
🎤 Talks in the morning to spark ideas
🤝 An unconference in the afternoon to go deeper, together

🌱 Theme: sustainable evolution — thoughtful, ongoing change in teams and systems

📆 When: 13th October 2025
🗺️ Where: Auckland

The event will be catered and ticketed (price TBC)
We’re adding to the ecosystem with something more participatory.

If you’re curious, add your email here:
📩 https://forms.gle/KcFvGyESGbU8w6Wr7

Please boost for reach 😁

Dear scientists, especially the R-community:

The NZ government wants to scrap all soc social sciences and humanities. 🤯

I probably don't have to explain why this is a totally bonkers milei-ish idea. (maybe just add the detail that Māori researchers will be overproportionally affected by these budget cuts, but this is probably anyway a feature of the plan)

I address the #RStats community explicitely, since R was developed in Aotearoa. And here in the Fediverse we are *many* R nerds!

So, @kjhealy or other kiwis, is there something the international academic community could do to express our thoughts and support your struggle?

Yesterday I got a vege bag from the local grow garden
I was able to pre-order it https://www.growcollective.co.nz/
The bag contents were amazing, and what a bargain at 15NZD! (should have taken a pic)
I never experienced something like that where the effort is community based anywhere else I lived.
You can also volunteer there and go on weekends to learn more about it and do some work in the garden.
I don't know this is normal here in NZ but I thought it was so nice! and maybe others would also find it interesting /useful 🥰

Heute ist es wieder ein Stück weiter gegangen. Ich hab mit Immobilienmaklern aus der Nähe telefoniert und den anstehenden Verkauf von unserem Häuschen besprochen. Zwei davon habe ich nächste Woche zum Besichtigungstermin eingeladen. Bin neugierig wie die den Wert einschätzen. Anscheinend haben die beiden mehrere Interessenten für Objekte in unserer Wohngegend auf der Warteliste.
Das wird auf jeden Fall der Löwenanteil von unserem Startkapital zum #Auswandern nach #Neuseeland sein. #Aoteaora

I've finally started sowing seeds for the coming growing season. In this week's blog post I talk about which tomato, chilli, herbs, and sweet pea varieties I have sown.
