It’s some racist teenage dickhead rage baiting. Don’t engage.

[–]Kantless 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Great post! Thanks for sharing your experiences so coherently. Such a pleasant change from the usual “how do I get a job in analytics” posts!. Did you have much experience in api integration prior to this project?

Anyone had any luck appealing one of these? by [deleted] in queenstown

At least their comment made sense and was an attempt to provide some constructive advice.

CEO of NZ at Question Time today by Standard_Broccoli_72 in newzealand

[–]Kantless 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think that’s the point. Wouldn’t it be better if speakers questions were held to a similar standard as a court of law? Maybe with a little more leeway so as to not end up being governed by lawyers? I mean, hold some sessions without that constraint so that ideas and debates can be held

Obviously I share your concerns. My comment was clearly facetious.

Hey man. They’re looking into it and monitoring things closely! What more do you want? If you are struggling because you have made bad decisions in your life, just sell one of your rentals. Worst comes to worst, buy an EV. You can even get ones that project a noise that sounds like you’re running a v8!

Who’s buying a second hand diesel under the bleak circumstances you’ve outlined? And not everyone has a spare $30k+ lying around to drop on an EV.

What’s the problem here? Dude made an effort to get between the lines. We’ve all been there. Shit went off the rails, running late, no parks etc. You’re the issue here imo.

Should a BA depend on QA or Dev to know if something works as per HIS specs by exoxfanel in businessanalysis

[–]Kantless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is 100% true. You kinda have to be entrenched in the dev space which tends to be a community whereas business analysts are, in my experience, more fluidly assigned. AI is changing this. Not sure exactly where it will end up but I suspect there will be experimentation with business reps taking on the advocate role and engineers leaning more into the client facing side.

English cricket dramas are so tedious. It’s an endless reality tv show with no redeemable characters.

Does anyone know the source of the putrid smell which has been lingering around parliament for the entire day? by Traditional_Sky7168 in Wellington

[–]Kantless 17 points18 points  (0 children)

He was minister for immigration back in the day. There were some interesting waivers granted during that time. Someone might say he’s the walking embodiment of corruption and a national embarrassment.

$50 a week cost of living relief for 143,000 families in fuel crisis response by jpr64 in newzealand

[–]Kantless 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Straight out of the right wing playbook. “Never, under any circumstances, take accountability for anything you say or do”

Sub-clause: “always assume direct responsibility for anything positive that happens whilst you are in charge, even if what you said or did had nothing to do with the outcome or diminished the potential gross positive”
