I've been a watching a bit more football that usual recently, and I feel like something similar to basketball has happened: analytics are sucking the soul out of the spectacle.

Spotify has switched on its lossless streaming service. The quality is very good, but it comes at a pretty steep data cost: 1GB per hour! Fine for WiFi but probably not suitable for most mobile data plans. That said, it feels like an opportunity for operators to upsell a data bundle to audiophiles.

YouTube video by The Music Professor This Baroque Composer Created Insane Polytonality!

I enjoyed this a lot. Highly recommended, if only for the incredibly haunting final chord of the piece in question.

Very interesting article. What i find particularly striking is the total lack of self awareness on display. These people are extremely privileged and live in a bubble completely removed from the problems they think they alone can solve. Their arrogance is breathtaking.

Fascinating stuff. Reed Hastings spoke about how he figured out that a DVD business would benefit from the network effect since you store the data once and share it many times. Of course that became the foundation of most cloud based businesses.

It's fine to just say you don't believe in sportsmanship. After all you're not your brother's keeper etc... ;)

War is often about political power, survival, or control. Sports aim to entertain, challenge, or unify.
Comparing sports to war can romanticize or trivialize real violence, especially in cultures already desensitized to conflict.

Here's an AI generated response for you:

Many scholars, veterans, and athletes push back on this analogy:

War involves death, destruction, and lasting trauma. Sports are generally low-stakes entertainment.
War raises profound moral questions. Sports are rule-bound games with referees.

It's 2025. You're making false comparisons, and you're not addressing the point about sportsmanship and appropriate behaviour in celebrating victory.

Sports and war are not at all similar. Sportsmanship rules exist and are taught from a young age, and on a global stage, where one has the privilege of representing one's country, with young impressionable fans watching, we should hold our stars to high standards.

I'm not suggesting she should. I'm just pointing out that for me, what she did was bad sportsmanship.

28.07.2025 05:23 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

No she changed direction to run right past her and she gave her a little stare down. Maybe in response to what the Spanish keeper did after Mead missed her retake, but still bad sportsmanship.

Personally I thought running past the Spanish keeper like that was in bad taste
