With these and other updates, UH football now has the #31 overall class, good for 4th currently in the Big 12.

Will be interesting to see where UH ends up in the Big 12 w/1 school ahead (Baylor) looking likely to make a coaching change.

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered.

He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here :

one of the more frustrating things about AI shit is that it, unfortunately, represents how a lot of older types think the computer should work ("ask it questions, get answers, talk with it") and normal interaction with a computer makes them terrified they'll hit a "blow up everything" button
