@KiwibankNZ found a bug in your ApplePay implementation - running iOS 17.1.1 and watchOS 10.1.1 (note the activation phone number)

@DrJinRussell @StarshipFDN @BarfootThompson Greg Williams looking happy we have let him out of Data & Digital for the night!

@elbanoitca @digitalidnz KISS is always a high bar but always worth it

Made a comment out loud today on something I have been thinking about for a while.

I think we need an Information Commissioner.

This would take a wider role in the ethics of data use beyond just privacy. Could potentially absorb some of the Ombudsman’s role and the OPC

@merxplat @eey0re Do we need to drop a syllable for you? I like Rin

[Jon Herries @jonherries]

@AndiShirtcliffe Great work Andi have fun

@daringfireball I think John the more interesting part of it is an AI “that is yours”. A personal and learning version of an LLM feels like the next step, but also something from a Stephenson/Gibson book

@merxplat Maybe we should hire said cat to motivate it to help you?

[Jon Herries @jonherries]

@MustBeMistry @TheKingsFund Sadly I think we are much more organisationally focused rather than ecosystem focused

[Jon Herries @jonherries]

@MustBeMistry @TheKingsFund Thanks for sharing that. A great read and useful food for thought here in Aotearoa about what health reform really is.

@andrewtychen Is like one of the cards in cluedo. Next up, the murder weapon choices. Rather than the old boring choices I think cat-sized nunchucks would be cool/effective esp. if prof would model them?

@keith_ng Just write a memo as a cover for the risk assessment you have completed that covers the security, privacy, financial and media risks for your precious write permissions.

And then wait 6 months for someone to approve.

@deemillar @David_Cormack Seapoint?

[Jon Herries @jonherries]

@SrCadburyCrypto @andrewtychen @0xgaut Or onions?

[Jon Herries @jonherries]

@EricTopol @LauraALandro @rawegd this is interesting, wonder how this compares to us (suspect similar)

[Jon Herries @jonherries]

@EricTopol @NatureMedicine Keen to hear more about this on Friday #hackaotearoa

[Jon Herries @jonherries]

@gtiso Yeah I noticed that too. I think they are stuck worrying more about continuity between each census than the questions making sense.

[Jon Herries @jonherries]

@andrewtychen @timnitGebru @radionz Thanks Andrew, keen to hear this!
