I was one day later than I hoped, but all NWSL field players from 2013 until now have player profiles, contracts, and (most) transactions updated in Spotrac
Of all the players, only 190 have transactions I was not able to account for (whether or not they are on a roster is easier)
Next up: GKs

People who think day care facilities are unlocked or have reception areas clearly have never had kids in daycare.
FFS, try being a parent with a kid actually in the day care and making an unscheduled pickup or drop off outside of normal hours.

If you think day care is expensive now, imagine if they all had to employ receptionists so they could handle all the Internet "investigators" calling and "visiting to check things out" (trespassing).

just so it's clear: this is the exact core function of genAI
Fascist government and climate deniers love it because it can produce the aesthetics of knowledge without any actual tendency towards truth. It is automated denialism.
Shame on every climate scientist promoting its use (there are lots)

Bob and I were among the hundreds of researchers that were supposed to conduct the 6th U.S. National Climate Assessment. Now it looks like they're gonna produce it with a few people and Grok? Communities need rigorous and accurate information about climate change. This will put communities at risk.

You want to know how I know Jessica Berman is wrong? The photo of @kate-f.bsky.social’s daughter Juju with a homemade Hal Hershfelt cape. That’s how I know what this league means to young fans. That’s how I know Berman is wrong. Young fans care more about the NWSL than anyone

I'm not going to watch because I don't need to be mad but I'm seeing y'all talk about it and I'm sick of people saying there aren't young fans. Y'all don't come to games if you think that. There are so many young people at these games. I feel ancient at a lot of games tbh

As a “youth” myself, I would much rather a quality game day experience than betting activations. Make super high quality broadcasts! Multi streams! Stat overlays ala NextGenStats or La Liga! Bring in reporting talent to cover the league! There are so many options.

Cori Close is right to be disappointed in the lack of media coverage yesterday.
Everyone watches women’s sports, but no one wants to pay a beat writer to cover them.

I can’t tell you how happy I get on those rare instances where there is a *2nd person* at DC Power pressers other than myself. Too many times I’ve been the lone reporter at matches and doing it on my own time/dime. We absolutely need more media investment in the women’s sports space.

Replacing junior coders with AI is a deliberate decision to rack up technical debt: bug-ridden, sprawling code bases that are impossible to understand or maintain.
It'a a decision that ensures you won't have any senior coders in 6 years when you need people to fix it. It's eating your seed corn.

The “worst of the worst” Venezuelans deported to El Salvador’s CECOT prison weren’t the worst: nearly all had no violent convictions, many entered the US legally, and gang labels relied on tattoos—not evidence, reports Cato’s David Bier.

DHS Doesn’t List CECOT Prison Deportees in Its Worst of the Worst Data
The United States should have allowed most of these immigrants to reside and work in the country legally. They could have been economic assets to the United States, and it serves no legitimate purpose to send them back to, at best, horrific conditions in Venezuela and, at worst, more persecution.
