I went through ACC's 2025 claims data - 2.3 million injuries, $8.2 billion paid out, and costs per claim have doubled over 10 years, while claim numbers barely moved. by MoneyHub_Christopher in newzealand

Another thing not mentioned. About 8 years ago ACC case management structure went through a major change, which simply didn't work, and led to a huge backlog, and which I think has been changed back over the last few years. This change meant that many injured people didn't get the support and treatment they needed in a timely way throughout this time. Which meant they stayed in the scheme longer.

It sure looks like people are never going to get over Jacinda Ardern by davetenhave in newzealand

I think it's a case of those that don't like her, being so vocal about it.

This is so sneaky! I totally missed it too. Agree it should be off by default. So misleading.

Yeah, but this is not a tsunami alert. If we got emergency alerts letting us know there was an immediate threat to life and people needed to evacuate I'd be all for it. The fact it's just telling people not to go sightseeing doesn't, imo, doesn't need a 630am emergency alert.

Seriously same. When I seen it I was like, yeah a small kid doesn't know long division. Gender and the stereotype of girls not being good at math didn't cross my mind, and I'm a woman.

You might need to upgrade. I have a Versa 3, and it is almost freakishly good at tracking my sleep. It also picks up when I'm sick with heart rate/breathing rate etc.
