Another doc prompted by something on LinkedIN - this one around a twenty year old doc called ‘Public Policy Framework for the New Zealand Innovation System’

how well we could do - hard - but not impossible

Had a play with 🔗 AI Site Builder from Wordpress. It’s going to take some tunings and prompts to make it really play nice - requiring time I have not got for a project I do not have. Still. Interesting.

Oh and the connectedness of things. And prior lives and … and … and on the way home my mind recalled something I wrote a few years ago;

Yet another 🔗🎵AlbumWhale list.
As the intro says …
I am not a singles guy BUT there are some wonderful tracks out there, that wouldn’t make it to my lists if not careful. This list of albums is made up of albums that are only there because it includes one very specific track - which is WHY the album is here. (Not to say it isn’t a good album - not that other songs aren’t great, and is all to say that the track named on the album notes is why the album is on the list. 🎵 I also have an apple playlist of the featured tracks.
