I scheduled a work event for October 4 (Auburn bye, Alabama vs Vandy) thinking it would be a decently football compatible week, and am now regretting that decision.
Currently praying they make it a night game so people will come to said event.

Delta, can we talk about what the point was of assigning a gate 72 hours in advance if you’re just going to change it more time than I can fit in a single screenshot between then and takeoff?

With the on going chaos in America with the Trump administration it seems we are now seeing a measurable impact on weather model forecast skill.
The GFS suffering the most but the cut in balloon data essentially leaves a "hole" in the data which will impact ALL models, not just the American one.

Costco is a really popular subject for business-success case studies but I feel like business guys kinda lose interest when the upshot of the study is like "just operate with scrupulous integrity in all facets and levels of your business for four decades" and not some easy-to-fix gimmick

Ok what’s going on here?
Yields are going up which means bond prices are going down.
Fewer buyers of the world’s safest asset.
Normally when the economy slows, there’s a flight to safety, not away from it.
Means the world may be abandoning America.
We are flirting with a true crisis.

Not a lawyer but tbh I didn’t realize they were different companies which… seems bad from a trademark litigation standards
Connecticut-based toolmaker Stanley Black & Decker is suing Stanley 1913, the Seattle company that makes trendy travel mugs involved in a recent safety recall.

New red-teaming report about DeepSeek-R1 just dropped. 🤖
Boston startup Enkrypt AI just published a new report with some stats about how R1 compares to rival LLM when tested for bias, toxicity, harm and other metrics. (Enkrypt offers a control layer for safe generative AI use.)

Now I’m wondering what the UMC emoji ought to be.
Okay apparently the thumbtack is just a bookmark and the anchors are *probably* a symbol Episcopalians use for themselves.
I DO know Lutherans — particularly conservative Lutherans — will sometimes have a buffalo emoji in their profile, so…now I wanna do a whole piece on denominational emojis.

I have no idea what the anchor and thumbtack emojis means on this platform and it's been so long that now I'm afraid to ask

Not to mention it should probably be a cause for concern that “doing what Jesus said” is so shocking to have show up in a sermon.
There's no requirement to have an "Inaugural Prayer Service," Presidents do it to make them look like good Christians with a holy writ to rule. If you don't want to get a Christian sermon, don't invite a Bishop to give a Christian sermon.

also, you need rly ironclad legal certainty here because the people from whom you are getting the assurances (the Trump White House/DOJ) are not, let's say, famous for their reliability and consistency, and not people to whom you'd want to give additional leverage over you to be doled out on a whim

Would love to be a fly on the wall of the GC’s offices at Apple and Google today
yes, the more interesting thing here is to watch when/if it shows back up in the app and google play stores
want to be excruciatingly clear about this: TikTok didn't have to go dark last night and it didn't have to turn back on this morning.
both of those were voluntary moves that the law does not directly touch.
