Oh, wow. Four pitchers (including two with NPB experience) combined to throw a no-hitter for the Mid-East Falcons against the Karachi Monarchs today in Baseball United.

This is a really great thread
🧵International Men's Day is about trans men. It's about black and brown men. It's about NB people who go through life being seen as men for convenience. It's not only about the boy who gets bullied because he can't throw a football, but the athlete pressured out of a meaningful education.

here is an insane thing I have learned: it appears that nobody has any real idea of how much actual, functional GPU capacity exists. Not "in progress," not "set to come online," I mean actual functional in-use capacity.

Lowkey the worst part about losing to this particular Dodgers team is that a lot of their players are actually pretty likeable.

A reader kindly and gently reminded me that I had somehow forgotten Etobicoke-Lakeshore, which also took much more than its share. Mea maxima culpa. I would note that this makes the point even stronger. Four of Toronto’s 25 wards took a stunning 95.5pc of the city’s growth from census 2016 to 2021
This will not be news to regular readers, but it's worth noting whenever Toronto council debates housing (or transportation or neighbourhood amenities) that just three of the 25 wards absorbed three-quarters of the city's population growth between 2016 and 2021

I bet you Sam Altman, Satya Nadella, Jensen Huang, Dario Amodei, Mark Zuckerberg, and Sundar Pichai don't have to talk to the chatbots they're pushing on us when THEY call customer support.
Verizon tells me to call them. I call and get a robot. They say there's a long wait and ask if I want to schedule a callback on another day. I schedule it. They call me at the promised time. It's a robot. It puts me in hold

There should be a wealth cap, like how MMORPGs have a level cap. You get to a billion US dollars, you get a little card that says you beat capitalism, and your estate goes to the government for redistribution when you die.
"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

He doesn't speak the language so I can't blame him, but Paul Skenes wrote his name wrong for these cards... He wrote スケネス instead of スキーンズ.

Exclusive: Based on documents viewed by this newsletter, OpenAI spent over $12.4 billion on inference from 2024 to September 2025. As part of its Microsoft revenue share, it sent $493.8m in 2024/$865.8m Jan-Sep 2025, implying lower revenues than previously reported.

Earnest post: there is increasingly direct evidence that Trump participated in child sex trafficking or at least knew about it.

He should resign, be impeached and removed from office, and prosecuted.

Even if you don’t think that WILL happen it’s important to say publicly that it SHOULD happen.

The "Tungsten Arm O'Doyle" guy is better at this journalism thing than most of the US mass media.
Juggalo jokes aside let's play "what the fuck is he talking about"

- he's talking about neodymium
- used to make powerful magnets used in electric car motors
- it's a "rare earth element", but that's a misnomer, neodymium is as common as copper or nickel, BUT, it's hard to mine and purify
Trump: "Nobody knows what a magnet is"

D&D. Trivia. Pool. Super Smash Bros. You know, all the stuff Millennials did as teenagers.
as the husband of a mahjong addict, dudes need to identify an activity that can be done relatively easily in groups with minimal financial commitment so they can get out of the house for 2-3 hours on a school night, have two beers, and shoot the shit with their buddies.

It won't be mahjong tho.

Wow! I am currently experiencing serious underwater-seismometer-envy. This is so cool.
The underwater seismometer network is so great, as evidenced from yesterday's EQ off-Tohoku.
