tl;dr: Hex now allows you to use the full power and flexibility of AI code generation, while using the trusted data, context, and governance of Hex's platform.

We've been a customer for a number of years now and I personally think the way Hex is approaching the intersection of self-service, vibe-coding/AI and governance/maintainability is directionally really smart.
As an admin, being able to see what our team is asking and get feedback on where context is poor (unclear dbt models, not enough context/guides to disambiguate inconsistent language etc) has been awesome. Then this latest stuff effectively bringing a replit/v0/lovable codegen combined with the jupyter-like Python/SQL cells is a real cherry ontop to handle the "why can't we just connect claude cowork directly to Snowflake" question that comes up
Here in Australia we've had contactless for close to a decade I'd guess. All our terminals have been updated so the only place you really see a terminal that can't do contactless these days is broken ones where that component seems to be malfunctioning.
Politics and lobbying mostly I'd guess. Resources sector are the major donors to the two major parties. Resources supported boom growth through the 2000s but we didn't do a great job transitioning to "new technology industries".
There is a national debate on the outcome of the Adani coal mine which in oversimplified terms is willing to risk X0,000 tourism industry jobs to save X00 resources jobs.

Notably, "Battle Royale" is available on iPad and Switch which presumably captures the younger/more casual kids. "Save the World" however is not available on iPad or Switch.
The general consensus is there's not really such thing as 'tone' - usually that's just a matter of low bodyfat % which shows your muscles more promimently.
What you're talking about somewhat though is balancing hypertrophy and strength goals - where someone may wish to increase their reps to say 8-20 which is demonstrated with studies to increase muscle size, but is poorer for progressing with strength (where 3-8 reps is more effective)
