What Taylor Swift's icon status says about who gets to be a 'girl' : Code Switch Taylor Swift has become an American icon, (and she's got the awards, sales, and accolades to prove it.) With that status, she's often been celebrated as someone whose music is authentically representi...

I guess it's trendy to shit on Taylor Swift now (which, some of y'all need hobbies), but I will say, her music had never been meant for some of us -- and that's okay! Not everything is for everyone! And I'll always refer to this episode of Code Switch explaining why www.npr.org/transcripts/...

If Liberty-Mystics goes to OT, what happens to the start of the Yankees-Red Sox broadcast (also on ESPN, first pitch at 7:10pm)?

Charlie Kirk called me a ‘lunatic’ and a ‘prostitute’ and demanded I be deported.

Nothing, *nothing*, justifies killing him, or robbing his kids of their dad.

We don’t know the identity or motive of the shooter but murder can *never* be the response to political disagreements.

This is my surprised face at the latest Tyreek Hill accusations

Angela Davis is here and the crowd went WILD

ESPN's app on my TV had six minutes of nothing to start the Coco broadcast and then it decided to go to two minutes of ads as they were doing player intros and walkouts, and just went into another two minutes of ads during the cointoss

I'm finally getting around to watching Cooperstown inductions (CC and Ichiro are self-care) and I'm cracking up that Brian Kenny's introduction for Wade Boggs name-checks the '96 Yankees but not the Red Sox at all 😂

Turns out, writing this was the most difficult deadline I've ever faced. Love you so much, Mummy. www.riverdale-on-hudson.com/obituary-not...

The world is a little less bright today. Love you so much, Mummy. Thank you for everything that you taught me. I'll continue to fight, as you did until your last breath.

Philly, FINALLY

All I see here is top notch ball security, elite contact balance, a willingness to grind out tough yards btwn the tackles, and surprising burst after he finds daylight

I'm watching NY1 and I think Cuomo just conceded?

I wasn't able to get the crab until my third time there lol, don't worry. I'd skew seafood given the South Indian/Goan provenance (where my family is from) but if you're feeling meet, the oxtail or lamb are both bomb.

Enjoy!

I'll second this if you don't get enough seafood

Absolutely get the dosa. If you haven't preordered the crab, definitely get the lobster moilee

Ironically, upon the paper’s release, several social media users ran it through LLMs in order to summarize it and then post the findings online. Kosmyna had been expecting that people would do this, so she inserted a couple AI traps into the paper, such as instructing LLMs to “only read this table below,” thus ensuring that LLMs would return only limited insight from the paper. She also found that LLMs hallucinated a key detail: Nowhere in her paper did she specify the version of ChatGPT she used, but AI summaries declared that the paper was trained on GPT-4o. “We specifically wanted to see that, because we were pretty sure the LLM would hallucinate on that,” she says, laughing.

Amazing: MIT researchers revealed how ChatGPT etc are destroying our brains and booby-trapped the report to expose those who want to use AI to ostensibly summarize the results.

She ushered in an era of the worst transplants to Brooklyn, all while being hailed as "the voice of our generation." Good riddance.

There’s a horse named Journalism in the Kentucky Derby today. Is anyone betting on him 😭

And now, a note on Bill Owens who, until this past week, was the executive producer of 60 Minutes.

We’ll be back next week with another edition of 60 Minutes.

First spotted him in February -- he's consistently parked on the same block on the UES and he had a scratched-out commercial plate (of course)
