Is it morally wrong to use a proprietary AI agent to help me set up an open source AI agent on my laptop?

Why thank you!

Wondering if they decided they need some more veterans on the roster?

At the terrible risk of seeming to agree with Bondi (I don’t) - what did the DoJ under Garland do about Epstein?

Wait, sarcasm! The conscious has to catch up to the unconscious.

I don’t know why but I find that reference to AI to be funny.

Honestly, that divergence reflects the possible variance from this roster. It is young and has talent and depth but it is short on proven veteran players and might lack leadership. They could be better than last year (my bet), or they might be worse.

If the pitching holds up we’ll be good.

Didn’t he pitch on short rest too?

I do not understand these UCL injuries so early in the season. I know MLB looked at pitcher injuries as a whole, I think including early injuries. My recollection is that the results were inconclusive.

I know the Red Sox think improper ramp down from the prior season may be a cause. Perplexing.

Still don’t understand signing IKF.

Pardons should require senate confirmation.

I assume there are copies of the files beyond those controlled by Bondi. Otherwise they would have destroyed them. How is it that nobody has leaked some of the stuff?

Probably not but still a solid trade.

Red Sox also have no reason to not to ask a high price for one of their pitching prospects. Deal wasn’t going to happen.

Had a discussion with a good friend who definitely dislikes Trump. He said “I like a lot of his policies but…”. I asked which policies he likes. All he could come up with was controlling immigration. I pointed out that is a goal, not a policy and asked which immigration policies he liked. End.

“…but he’s pulling his party and its base away from what America has long been.”

Hate to say it, but that’s not a problem for them, it’s the goal. The GOP no longer believes in one person, one vote democracy.

It’s incredible how much corruption exists at the very top of all 3 branches of the federal government.

Executive: Trump’s crypto scheme, no bid contracts given to friends, etc., etc., etc.

Legislative: Probable insider trading, funding for votes / help.

Judicial: Thomas’ trips, tuition, etc.

Of course they do. It means people who do what you want.

Well of course the very first ballots results published should be official and final. 10 votes counted and reported? Final!

This was a contract dump. Other players were moved but they were not what the deal was about.

The Red Sox taking on Hicks’ contact was part of the return for the Giants taking on Devers’ much larger contract.

Not saying it was good deal either way. People have different opinions on that.

“But a deal with Trump, they’ve discovered, is no deal at all.”

You don’t say?

I assume pitchers of that era could throw so much because they weren’t, and probably didn’t need to, throw at max effort?

Seems like a long list. Which makes it odd that Drohan was left off. I thought these invites were for prospects, and non-prospects, with a shot at making the MLB team sooner rather than later.
