throwing it out there for free or forcing it into core products and hoping you get hooked so they can get you down the road. same ol playbook

yes i am pissed at google again why do you ask

if these llms that are branded as ai are so great, companies wouldn’t have to force them into their products and on to you to juice their numbers

it feels like a lifetime ago and it makes me really sad

that means a lot and the feeling is mutual

it is unbelievably frustrating to watch this play out and spread even further knowing exactly what the game is

i think everyone that has been around women’s swimming for any period of time has stories about coaches abusing swimmers, which is pervasive in the sport. gaines’ crusade against trans folks under the guise of protecting women and girls has always rang hollow for so many reasons

eric

it was a perfect storm of a lot of things, lightning in a bottle, and it was awesome

nailed it with all of this

The Stingley dot with the sad full rotation lol

he wasn’t but he was the guy getting all the hype and credit for it and that might’ve been a little off

i’m mad because it’s a good concept if used right and he’s ruining it for the rest of us

a king

so that lsu team was an ungodly collection of talent that was so good that it could overcome its coaching to become a historic offense

this is a terribly coached football team

Idk how long they've been doing it, but I love that Nebraska Volleyball's nickname is the "Blackshorts"

"The reality is that there are much bigger problems that women face in sports," Ward says. "Society has ignored these problems for decades. And now, all of a sudden, we're pretending to care about women in sports in the name of banning trans people?"

In October, following an investigation, the US Center for SafeSport permanently banned Jorgensen from coaching, citing sexual and physical misconduct, sexual harassment, and other findings. The lawsuit against Jorgensen has not yet gone to trial; a judge ruled last February that some of the allegations were too old to sue over. Jorgensen did not respond to a request for comment; in court papers, he has denied the claims. Ward says she believes them. "When I wear my UK swimming gear out," she says, "I've had three times where somebody's approached me and asked me about Riley Gaines. And I've said, 'Well, do you know about Lars Jorgensen?" "Every single time, they've said no," she continues. "And I just say, 'You know, it's hard for me to care about Riley Gaines tying for fifth when my swim coach is accused of raping my teammates."

her teammate is right that there’s real issues in women’s sports, especially with coaches preying on athletes including on that kentucky team (but that wasn’t going to get riley famous and paid like punching down and sucking up to power would)

if she actually gave a shit about protecting women in sports she would’ve been loudly speaking about her own coaches but that’s not what it’s about.

you gotta burp it

dad’s got a point

we will grill in their honor 🫡

as our ancestors before us did it

friend of mine growing up had a grill that’s igniter didn’t work so he would turn the burners on, lay down on the deck like he was in a bunker so it didn’t explode in his face again, and light the burners with a long lighter held up over the opening
