If the plans fail, I’ll make new plans. Follow me for random comments about Orioles, Ravens, Terps. Pro-democracy. Democrat.

*Nearly* $100. That’s not a gift, that’s a chore. It’s like Seinfeld signing all the checks for $0.14.

If you divide voter into 4 groups, across democracies the general trend is: • Center left (40%) • Far right (30%) • Center right (20%) • Far left (10%) This has the end result of making literally everyone angry. How the 3rd place center right swings determines the direction of the country.

The Brazilian Portuguese commentary on that Tyler Loop field goal for the Ravens is exactly what everyone needs to hear right now

If I could get an alert on my phone for any time a position player was pitching, I would hit accept in a heart beat. Nothing it more fun than 59 MPH fastballs.

I think these are probably a lot more true if you excluded software development. He’s not in that space That is where nearly all of the growth has come from. And that has quickly gone through the tech adoption curve and is moving onto how do we reduce costs part. Open source will be big

This. Also it is where it has been less effective in my experience. It’s a broad swath of technologies in practice with use cases and impact that range from amazing to much worse And its promoters have ranged from honest to disingenuous to insane

This is inflation related - energy constraints, trade barriers, wealth effect, AI boom - all driving up inflation. The market is realizing that these won't dissipate quickly.

Long version is that he has great stuff and gets no run support. But I’m always confident when he’s on the mound. I hope we extend Rogers. Baz, Bradish, Rogers are a good 1-3 at the price Elias will pay

We always need to look at what a technology replaces to understand the impact. The internet replaced mail, printing, and phone calls. Physical items-> digital items. AI replaces reading, typing, and coding. It allows bespoke products. I do not believe these will not be the same impact

One unknown with the Adley trade is what they were saying on free agency, extension, or desire for a trade. There is definitely a chance Adley was signaling to move, especially after the Basallo extension. If that was the case, the trade was the best move for everyone (except the fans)

I’m really glad we didn’t trade Rogers, and I think that would have burned the rest of the season more than Adley. Right now we have 4 good starters. A great catcher. 4 acceptable OFs. If Gunnar, Mayo, Cowser, Basallo, Holliday all get it together, then they can make playoffs behind the rotation /1

I just don’t see this happening. The class of problems that personal assistants solve for people just seems really narrow. Our time isn’t sunk doing internet things, it goes to physical world. Speed of light and compute time limits data center usage in the physical world.

The most interesting thing is how much this costing them. 6% yield is 2% above short term interest rates. And the it is a debit card with low interchange fees. That is unlikely to be sustainable because the money doesn’t work

This the problem with presidentialism in American politics. DNC is basically a shell entity waiting for the next president to take over. The chair is a bureaucrat not a great leader because they can’t conflict with the next president. No great leader wants the role. It’s not a springboard
