Two muscular arms are clasped together in ferocious alliance, born from prior enmity. The left arm is labeled "DESCRIPTIVISTS" and the right arm is labeled "PRESCRIPTIVISTS". The hands are clasped together in union under the words "I'm not calling it fucking S.I." because the parties - who agree on little else - are united on this point, at least.

Maybe I would be more keen to open my inbox if I thought of it less as "replying to emails" and more as "directing counter-battery fire".

If the Bears can commit a safety or fumble through the end zone, they’ll basically have BINGO for “dumb shit you can do at the goal line”

If you find yourself writing anything about Rahm Emanuel, or hate-reposting something about him, just stop it. His era is over and it’s obvious that his opinions don’t deserve to be proliferated. Don’t quote him! Don’t give him oxygen!

Hey @figgityfigs.bsky.social - don't quote-post. Don't drive traffic or engagement. Her entire grift - which you correctly identify as a grift! - is predicated on NY Magazine knowing that folks like you will get pissed off and call them on this disingenuous nonsense. The advertisers don't care.

An interesting personality test, for me, is whether a football fan *enjoys* those late-game scenarios where deliberately not-scoring, or letting the opponent score, increases your odds of winning (or even guarantees the win).

This was Nick Chubb's greatest run ever. He rips off a 60-yard touchdown run, whoopty-doo. But if he scored, the Texans would've gotten the ball back with a minute left in a 1-score game. So instead of collecting the TD, Chubb ran out of bounds on the 1 yard-line to seal the win.

Software uses words, but at the end of the day it's really shape rotation, and so the LLMs are very good at it. Conversely, the agents suck at creative pursuits because they are trying to solve wordcel problems using only shape rotation.

If a receiver makes the line to gain and fumbles backwards out of bounds behind the line to gain… is it a first down or not?

If the ball goes over the Oline and Dline, the arm must have been going forward. I understand why they let em play but man that’s frustrating.

In practice though, it really seems like we're moving towards, "AI is a productivity tool that enhances the employee you have, but often doesn't really let you replace them, so much as get more out of them, in some fields. In others, it's mostly useless so far."

The Facial Expressions of Tethys by artist Julius von Bismarck. A suspended high-sea buoy that moves in real time. Sensors on a twin buoy out in the Atlantic Ocean send live satellite data to motors inside the museum. This makes the indoor buoy copy the exact, real-time movements of the ocean waves.

I've got the KC Chiefs story in the bag
A press clipping about KC Chiefs' superfan "Chiefsaholic" who was a serial bank robber and laundered his proceeds through casinos.

A still-frame from the Chargers 2023 schedule release video, featuring Chiefsaholic pulling off his ankle monitor, back when his arrest was only for a credit union in Tulsa and not a series of bank robberies all across the great plains states.

The time is nearly perfect for a movie about the famously chaotic and dramatic 1976 production of Star Wars, starring Ewan McGregor as Alec Guinness and Hayden Christiansen as David Prowse.

When I was about 12 I was in a science competition, one of the "Not The Nerd Olympics Because Olympics is Trademarked" things, and I was entered in the firing tennis balls accurately event. Sand pits 10'-20' away with a horseshoes-style pin. Scored on proximity: hit the pin, max score.

This makes me hopeful. This number is aspirational but nowhere near out of reach: a working professional could realistically cash out their 401k and buy off a public official. Owning a senator is more attainable for most Americans than home ownership.
