Cool Kiwi Science done with Marmite!
A University of Otago fish expert, Roe Stuart, has found weird new fish super-deep down in large montane lakes in the South Island, lured in with Marmite.
What a great story. I look forward to finding out more about what these odd fish are.

I like this good news story from Morning Report on #RNZ National radio today. A kokorā, NZ little blue penguin, got itself seriously tangled in the netting of a soccer goal in a residential garden in New Plymouth. The boy who found it alerted his grandma who called the Department of Conservation. The penguin was carefully extracted from the netting, checked over by a vet, then released back at the shore.

I think we found the reason why Adrian Orr quit in such a rush.

The real headline here is about how the casual use of Auror for Police surveillance ...
"... raised concerns about privacy for everyday Kiwis."
Instead, the headline editors chose for this episode of The Detail is;
"A retail crime-fighting app helping police track repeat offenders"

What's up with that?

Meiner Meinung nach muss man die Aussage 'Betreiber Günter Hölzer nennt Personalmangel als Hauptgrund' mal auf der Zunge zergehen lassen. Vor allen da es an sich genug arbeitswillige Menschen gibt, die man eben nur entsprechend Aus- und Weiterbilden müsste. Allerdings sollte das eben auch nicht den Blick darauf verstellen das die Arbeitsbedingungen und das Gehalt im Einzelhandel eben nicht gerade das Gelbe vom Ei sind. Sprich man sollte sich evtl. zusätzlich zu dem oben genannten überlegen dort etwas zu verbessern um die Arbeit attraktiver zu gestalten. Außerdem ist da wohl auch noch ein gewisser Spielraum in Sachen Automatisierung. Nein nicht um Arbeitskräfte einzusparen, sondern um sie zu entlasten.
Betreiber Günter Hölzer nennt Personalmangel als Hauptgrund. Der Bürgermeister ist zuversichtlich, dass ein neuer Betreiber gefunden wird... (weiter) (Paywall)

MediaWatch just introduced me to the neologism "angertainment", which is a pretty good way to describe corporate social media driven by The Algorithms:

Further to that:> "Google did not respond to a request for an interview."
By the way, when is #rnz.co.nz going to remove the Amazon tracker on their pages?

The *real* road toll ...
"It shows air pollution kills about 3300 people each year - with vehicle emissions responsible for two thirds of those, nearly 10 times the road death toll."

The RNZ Mediawatch team seem shocked that the emergence of TikTok has brought concerns about addiction, bullying, and so on:
https://www.rnz.co.nz/national/programmes/mediawatch/audio/2018754237/kiwi-kids-screening-out-local-mediaClearly they haven't been listening to Douglas Rushkoff, Aral Balkan, Jaron Lanier, and the many others who have pointed out why all this is a natural and predictable consequence of corporate ownership, centralized platforms, and particularly datafarming revenue models.
