🧵 RANT THREAD AIFF hosting Brazil and Uruguay might be one of the dumbest decisions in a long series of questionable decisions by Indian football's administrators, and the money involved makes it even harder to understand. (1/n)

Ranjit Bajaj took loans worth ₹2 crore (~$250K), risking his own property, to fund visas, travel & stay for young Indian footballers—with zero support from AIFF. I hope these kids are picked by top clubs soon as they are the hope of Indian football. Jai Hind 🇮🇳

Not sure who cares here but I'm playing a HeartGold hardcore nuzlocke (dupes clause optional). I carefully planned my encounters for Whitney and her Milktank and got not one but two female Heracrosses! How're they both modest and have swarm!?!?!?

The last time ManUnited won at Anfield in the Premier League was January 2016. I was preparing for my board exams at the time. That means I've never seen United beat Liverpool as an adult... and now I can't sleep 🫠

Back in 5th or 6th grade, I remember having an English essay book and one of the topics was "Why should you wish 'All The Best' and not 'Good Luck' " and although I don't remember the exact reasons it has stuck with me now where wishing someone "Good Luck" feels wrong

See below for a message from the family of Om Arvind, our friend and contributor who passed away earlier this year. Gifts within the United States (no transaction fee): epay.icc.edu/C20866_ustor... Gifts outside the United States (3.3% +$.30 per transaction): checkout.square.site/merchant/0W6...

HELP US CONTINUE TO HONOR OM’S MEMORY!

It has been just over six months since we lost our beloved Om, and every day without him is a struggle. Yet, through our sorrow, we find strength in remembering the person he was and the dreams he carried. Om’s heart was always with those in need, and had he been here today, we know he would have been an outstanding EMT—dedicated to delivering healthcare to the most vulnerable.

In Om’s memory and to honor the incredible impact he could have made, we've established the Om Arvind Healthcare Opportunity Endowed Scholarship. This scholarship will provide opportunities for underserved and underrepresented individuals to pursue a healthcare career at Illinois Central College, ensuring that Om’s spirit of service lives on. Thanks to those who have already donated over $13,000.

We’re just $7,000 away from fully endowing this scholarship and making it permanent. Your support is crucial to help us reach this important milestone—every dollar brings us closer!

The tool allows users to integrate tracking data and observe them as video frames, while integrating a custom machine learning model to observe frame-by-frame predictions. The tool also allows functionality to move players around for creating "what-if" scenarios!
