Can anyone tell me why Marquette is ranked 23rd and 25th in this week’s polls, and UConn who has beaten them twice now, is unranked?
What a brilliant cartoon shared by @dave — let him speak!
Should counties start storing clean training data for future AI training? This piece seems to think so.
We’re still absorbing what has happened. We’re wrestling with what it will mean for ourselves and our families, as well as the impact on our partners and the American people.
But we came to the government to fix things. And we’re not done with this work yet.
If you truly wanted a modern efficient government, you would make the whole government look like 18F. Instead, you see what they’re really up to: www.politico.com/news/2025…
This is a low day in American history. This commenter on Reddit seems to have it figured out. 
Our current president has been a source of embarrassment for his whole life, but today may have been the most embarrassing thing an American president has ever done in front of cameras.
We have access to several AI models at work. Some days I’m using them with my work and thinking “wow, this is truly the future!” and then I upload a screenshot of a list of 25 names and ask it to return a plain text list, and I’m shocked at how bad the output is.
4–1 at half, Forest must be feeling like we did against Man City last week, like how did this happen? #nufc #HTL
Interesting piece at The Athletic today chronicling the national soccer program of Greenland trying to join CONCACAF (the body that runs North American soccer competitions on behalf of FIFA). Worth the time if you are not paywalled. Love these types of stories.
As much as I enjoy seeing KC get mauled (although I don’t hate them), I’d rather have seen the Buffalo Bills… probably get mauled. All my Philly-area family are enjoying this.
I feel like text/chat support was invented to make support phone calls less painful and frequent. And yet it’s become so painfully slow and full of generic responses with Verizon, they’ve become as painful as talking to someone… and a lot slower.
Newcastle decisively through to the League Cup Final! At least that’s one thing going well. #NUFC #HTL ⚽️
I told myself I wasn’t going to watch the next four years minute by minute. It’s not healthy. I’d check in maybe once a day. I paid attention tonight for one hour, and it was already too much. Tomorrow will be worse.
Trump wants to place the United States military in charge of Gaza, and to expel Palestinians.
There better be Vietnam War-style protests to sending our troops to occupy another piece of the Middle East.
While the hype is nauseating, I think there is promise in AI as a human assistant. While the outputs aren’t highly reliable today, I’m starting to think the process of writing effective prompts—intrinsically—is an effective thought tool, because you have to diligently explain your task.
I help a nonprofit in town with their tech needs. I recently got them access to Google’s free Workspace for Nonprofits. This morning I was setting up accounts, and the account has access to ✨Gemini✨, which I used to assist me. Unfortunately, it was only 50% accurate with its responses. 😕
Recently thinking about the need for a modern replacement for the newspaper, especially for local news. Comes once daily so you can’t be sucked in throughout the day. I think it’s an .epub delivered by RSS. Read on an e-ink device for best slow news experience. (I very much want an e-ink iPad)
