Public Basketball Court In Trentham
Taking shape right now is the Hutt Valley's first public half court basketball court.
It's being installed on Grant's Bush Reserve in Wallaceville Estate and only metres away from a host of residential houses.
I have mixed feelings in regard to this amenity designed in particular for 10-20 year olds to enjoy.
Some of these amenities get dismantled overseas and I believe one was shut down in Auckland.
Outdoor public half court basketball courts can promote high noise levels, unruly behaviour and a place for influencing anti social actions.
The Upper Hutt City Council had received submissions etc opposing the court and/or where it is located.

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.
Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

Possible AI Phone Scam
I received a phone call today that announced its self as an AI, asking if I would answer a few questions. I told it to "go away" in no uncertain terms. It sounded frighteningly human but its replies were a bit off on timing and if you weren't on the ball or just woken up you could end up giving out information to an unknown AI bot. AI has taken over virtually everything that you see online as any form of video, even of people you believed you know.
Here are the numbers that I have been able to track down as being in use at present. It is Auckland but the 242 area code appears not to exist. You now need to be very, very careful now answering your phone calls.
Confirmed (at present) numbers used by this AI scam
All Auckland, or so it appears.
BUT area code 242 doesn't exist as far as I can see.
