  1. So Tusk is essentially admitting out loud that he is using the checkmark system to reward people he likes (like Lebron) and punish those he doesn’t (like NYT and NPR). Yup, totally normal public company business practice. Where do I go to buy stock in that?
  2. Didn't know where else to put this, but ... uhhhhh ... https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/interactive/2023/ai-chatbot-learning/?location=alert
  3. More than a few retail workers I would see every week with beautiful eyes, very captivating, then when they could take off the mask it was like, oh wow, that regresses the face to the mean a bit.
  4. I don't remember that the accepted wisdom in 2003 was that the Tigers were trying to lose, like the 2023 A's seem to be, but it was 20 years ago and I may have forgotten, so I'm open to the evidence if you have it.
  5. I don't think so. WAR already takes into account that most runs will either be in excess of what's needed to win this game today, or else will be wasted because his team already loses this game today without or without him. That's partly why the rule of thumb evolved into, for every ten runs a player plays above replacement, that translates to one win generated for the team all by himself.
  6. Really the only person who knows whether this is true or not is Scott Harris. 😉😅
  7. This is true of literally everything Scott Harris does. We still enjoy the speculating.
  8. Lol The best part: the guy who proved Lindell wrong was a Trump voter in 2020.
  9. Streaky or not, it still all adds up to a solid 109 OPS+.
  10. I think it's that too, and they're both related.
  11. I think a big part of this is that there’s no longer a cohort of people alive that has the 1919 Black Sox scandal as part of their living memory.
  12. That’s a .333/.333/1.333 slash line. I’ll take that from the kid all year. 😉
  13. The difference is that A’s management has basically run that team into the ground for business purposes. The front office that put together the 2003 Tigers were actually trying to win.
  14. I wonder the diseases we are calling COVID as an umbrella term is in the process of morphing into taxonomically different diseases, but we don’t know that yet because the research on it is so new.
  15. He’s the favorite son basically because they think Democrats are getting their nose out of joint over losing the Kennedys, or some such thing.
  16. We can if the nomination takes place today. Does it?
  17. Legislating to the so-called strength of your personal marriage is definitely constitutional, right?
  18. Yup. The real loser is the cable-/satellite-/streaming-subscriber public, who will be paying Fox News’s settlement with the higher carriage fees they will demand to maintain the channel on packages, as practically required.
  19. I don’t think it can be called versatile if he can do a lot of different things below average-like.
  20. Trumpism without the Trump is just fascism without the fun.
