It’s bizarre that the only public transport to Wellington airport for the foreseeable future is one of two circuitous bus routes with the same number, no airport signage and no luggage space, followed by an 8 minute exposed walk via a Burger King drive through.
I walked by this 4 bedroom home a couple of days ago. Made its owners more than $2.5m in four years.

I feel so angry whenever I think of JA saying she doesn't want house prices to come down. This isn't even really about 25-year-olds locked out of the market. To be clear, if she's unwilling to dramatically increase housing supply, the PM isn't *that* concerned about child poverty
UPDATE 7:40AM
SCU have left the site of the SH1 Urban Motorway crash and contractors are currently cleaning up debris. The right southbound lane is now open, but there are still major DELAYS heading into the city. ^AL

UPDATE 6:30AM
SH1 Urban Motorway northbound remains CLOSED, including the Arras and through the Terrace Tunnel. SCU are on site conducting their investigations. Please SLOW DOWN & expect DELAYS on your commute, as queues are building back to Kaiwharawhara. ^AL pic.twitter.com/iSd4P80DDx

Is it cynical to suggest that the airport company makes money from parking and taxis, so that it has no incentive to help provide a useful public transport service?

SH1 URBAN MOTORWAY, NORTHBOUND - SERIOUS CRASH - 5:30AM
Due to a serious crash, the northbound lanes are CLOSED prior to Aotea Quay, including the Arras & Terrace tunnels. Emergency services are on site & SCU are attending. Please avoid the area or DELAY your journey if possible. pic.twitter.com/7rE805PTKu

This simple layout for walking and biking (widening the bike part a bit with the extra width available) would be a great one for Te Ara Tupua, the @WakaKotahiWgtn path between Ngauranga and Petone. Much better than a shared path design.

Really wish the “this can only be replied to by people you follow” feature existed in my prime dunking-on-bitcoin days. But yes if any of you need reminding: it is immensely wasteful by design, has very limited uses, and the network consumes more energy the higher the price is
Let's discuss the environmental cost of bitcoin. Because despite all the push for sustainable and green investment in the tech sector, there's a giant smoldering Chernobyl sitting at the heart of Silicon Valley which a lot of investors would prefer you remain quiet about. 🧵 (1/)
