If you read this, you’ll notice the same pattern again and again: AI boosters make some extreme, poorly-defined claim like “AI will have the power of 10M Einsteins,” people point out that makes no sense, and then the AI boosters say “Are you denying that LLMs are good at drafting GitHub commits”?”
The AI industry’s supporters and skeptics sound more and more like believers and atheists—locked in an intense, frequently petulant war that may never end. Where does that leave everyone else? @matteowong.bsky.social reports:
The AI Civil War Is Here
The tech industry and its critics occupy parallel universes.

Sincerely, hope not either. Lando's been a breath of fresh air for being completely against the stereotypical chauvinistic environment that F1's bred. He's honest, raw, vulnerable, and that makes him, him.
World Championship credentials or not, the sport needs men like him at the top.

i hope Lando doesn't have to change. there is too much Machismo in this sport (an unfortunately reflection of the RoTW)

Only 3rd time in play-by-play era (since 1996-97) that a player made All-NBA despite that player's team being outscored with that player on floor during regular season WHILE outscoring opponents with that player off the floor.
And the 1st time for a 1st or 2nd team selection.

SGA's rank among last 20 MVPs (05-06 to 24-25)
Regular Season
FTAs per game = 8.8 (10th)
FT attempt rate = .404 (12th)
FTAs per 100 possessions = 12.4 (9th)
Playoffs
FTAs per game = 9.2 (7th - tied)

And to be clear, SGA absolutely gets questionable calls. But all the stats say his free throw volume is pretty average compared to previous MVPs but it gets treated like the biggest issue in the game.
It’s such a weird subset of fans too. I live in MN and my friends I talk ball with all agree three or four of Shai’s FTs were pretty soft, but they are way more pissed the wolves took a billion threes and didn’t even try to earn the same whistle

This alone is a fireable quote. It’s answering the charge of making a bad deal by paying $60k for a Honda Civic by noting that the Civic is a great compact car.
Nico Harrison on belief the Mavs didn't get enough for Luka:
"If you don't value AD as an All-NBA player, an All-Defensive player, then you're not going to like the trade. We targeted AD, but if you don't like him, then there's nothing else we get that's going to make you excited about the trade."

Nico Harrison on if he foresaw the blowback to the Luka deal:
"I did know that Luka was important to the fan base. I didn't quite know it to that level."
He said plan was that Mavericks would win to have "quieted some of the outrage. And so unfortunately we weren't able to do that."
