Absolutely mental stat from Matt Bove (citing an Evan Abrams): Since 2013, teams with five turnovers AND a minus-4 turnover margin are 3-84-1. The three winners? Bills over Chargers today Jaguars over Chargers in 2022 Broncos over Chargers in 2015

Chess is hard for humans, but not for computers.
One day, it will be fully solved like checkers.
Between now and then, or even after, have fun.
People enjoy many games/sports where machines are vastly betterThere are more possible chess games, by about 40 orders of magnitude, than atoms in the observable universe. To solve chess, you'd have to map them all. Good luck.

Wrong, all legal chess positions are ~40 oom less than the estimated atoms in the Universe. And ASI will figure out ways to solve and compress that are far beyond what we could possibly comprehend.

The Cubs' Pete Crow-Armstrong and Alex Bregman are the first MLB teammate duo to combine for 25+ home runs, 25+ walks, 50+ RBIs and 50+ runs scored in a calendar month since the Yankees' Roger Maris and Mickey Mantle in July 1961, per OptaSTATS.

Incredible summation of the culture in the AI recap of a search for “FanDuel Harper.”
The first paragraph describes the news about Bryce Harper personal greeting to a FanDuel VIP with a gambling addiction. The second paragraph tells you how to bet on Bryce Harper at FanDuel.

May 4th will mark 140 years since the Haymarket Affair, a watershed moment in the American labor movement. Haymarket Square, which had been a gathering place for a century, was effectively obliterated in the late 1950s by the construction of the Kennedy Expressway. Before-and-after below.

Ten years ago today, in April 2016, the Boston Globe printed a satirical front page imagining a future Trump administration. The page was called "alarmist," "hyperbolic," "dystopian." But we’ve put up with so much since then it now looks like . . . a slow Thursday?
Boston Globe mock front page from April 9, 2016. Date says April 9, 2017, with giant headline “DEPORTATIONS TO BEGIN” and “Markets sink as trade war looms.”
