Your regular reminder that the number of trans kids using puberty blockers to delay puberty is tiny, and the vast majority of prescriptions for the medication in children and adolescents are used to delay precocious puberty in cisgender kids.

This might be my favorite JWST image from the nearby Universe so far. You’re seeing the late stages of evolution of a star like the Sun, after it’s exhausted its nuclear fuel. This is a transient phase where it’s ejected its outer gas layers, which are then irradiated by the hot stellar remnant.

When a chatbot gets something wrong, it’s not because it made an error. It’s because on that roll of the dice, it happened to string together a group of words that, when read by a human, represents something false. But it was working entirely as designed. It was supposed to make a sentence & it did.

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

I asked the WPBL if coaches' salaries would be coming from the same $95k/team budget and I was told by their PR person that it should not, but they have to double check.

Nice! Had I been a recent graduate, this would have been my ideal job

Great opportunity for the up-and-comers out there

A general mills' commemorative coin for ice hockey from the 1998 Nagano Olympics, still on the original packaging

The back side of the packaging of general mills' commemorative coin for ice hockey from the 1998 Nagano Olympics. It reads: "ICE HOCKEY The rules of Olympic ice hockey are similar to those of the NHL. There will be no fighting permitted in Olympic ice hockey, although players are permitted to skate into opponents to knock them away from the puck. This is called checking. Hockey became an Olympic sport in 1920 when it was part of the Summer Games! Women will compete for the first time in ice hockey in Nagano, Japan at the 1998 Olympic Winter Games. USA 36 USC 380

The first weekday of transit cuts could’ve been worse. ‘Next week will be telling,’ says SEPTA The first full weekday of reduced service was inconvenient for many riders, but it didn’t result in the crush-level crowds SEPTA had predicted.

Amid the political dysfunction, SEPTA’s 700,000 daily riders — or however many were still taking transit amid the cuts — spent their weekday commutes trying to navigate the agency’s new austerity schedule. (2/2)

Hundreds of thousands of people in Southeastern Pennsylvania who rely on public transit had to adjust to deep cuts in SEPTA’s service this week. We rode along with one Northeast Philly rider who’s adjusting to a new reality.

Amtrak’s Keystone line, connecting NYC, Philly, and Harrisburg, may get axed under SEPTA cuts U.S. Rep. Brendan Boyle said Amtrak's Keystone Service line is at risk because the railroad could lose $71.1 million in annual payments from SEPTA.

“The potential reduction in SEPTA’s financial contribution will have a negative impact on Amtrak’s ability to reinvest in the rail network,” the national passenger railroad said in a statement Tuesday.

A chaotic first night of signings for PWHL Vancouver and PWHL Seattle.

VAN:

Food for thought.

Carpenter, Knight, Jenner, Pannek, Nurse, Roque, and Maschmeyer are all making at least $80k USD.
They each represent a minimum of 6% of their team's "cap". So, NY, for example, could clear at least 12% of their cap in the expansion draft. That's huge. A potential reset.

Yall should check out this nifty expansion draft tool over on @theicegarden.bsky.social by tool making MVP @jbouch.bsky.social 👀

A table showing Ottawa with a 1286 Elo rating and a 37% chance of winning and Minnesota with a 1330 Elo and 63 percent chance of winning.

My PWHL Elo ratings system gives the Frost about a 2/3rds chance of winning today. Minnesota's Elo has soared in these playoffs to now be 1330.

The PWHL has announced expansion processes & rules for Seattle & Vancouver. They will have a mini free agency period in addition to an expansion draft.

Existing teams can protect 3 players. Once they lose 2 in either signing or expansion draft they can add 1 more protected player.
