Give Hellebuyck every gold medal. That is one of the all-time great goalie performances.

I can’t believe MacKinnon didn’t score on that one. Wild how magnified every mistake is in this game.

Exclusive | OpenAI Employees Raised Alarms About Canada Shooting Suspect Months Ago The ChatGPT maker opted against informing Canadian authorities about Jesse Van Rootselaar’s descriptions of violence last June.

Absolutely wild. WSJ reporting that some OpenAI staffers thought the Tumbler Ridge shooter's use of ChatGPT raised the potential of real world violence but leadership decided not to alert RCMP. www.wsj.com/us-news/law/...

You think that was stressful/tiring, just wait until everyone in B.C. has to wake up at 5 a.m. on Sunday for the gold-medal game.
