When does the “Steve Nash as Masai Ujiri’s replacement” talk start up in Toronto? Feels like something Rogers would do.

A fun paper I wrote for the wonderful LLP Journal about (the possibility of) using RPGs to learn languages through extensive reading. llpjournal.org/2025/04/22/c...

Writing isn’t on the sooneung, so students/teachers probably don’t devote much time to it. Just one of the many problems with designing an entire education system around one test.
I work every day with the best Korean authors who have been edited by the best Korean editors so I often forget, but Koreans are generally not great at writing, even writing grammatically? Probably because there is *so little* writing education in Korean schools? Such a huge gap there.

Great article about some of the best defenders in the league. They don’t get enough attention, so gotta boost it when it comes!
In case you missed it, tried to categorize elite defenders into 3 different buckets.
Talked about OG Anunoby, Draymond Green, Dyson Daniels and Wemby.

The best way to assess individual defenders in the NBA is thinking of them as “solvers.”
Especially in such an offensively-driven era, these players have to constantly put out fires.

always wild to me that people always frame this as if it starts with the left antagonizing people when almost 99% of the time it’s someone becomes insanely transphobic or a blatant nazi. but we’re the bad ones for criticizing and pointing that out!
No surprise to see the Democratic Likud Caucus sprinting to lick Nazi boot:

So the richest man in the world spent $130 million to elect Donald Trump.
Now he's being put in charge of a "government efficiency" agency while controlling corporations with billions in government contracts that are also under federal investigations.
See how this works?

The Trump supporters who “understand” tariffs might be even dumber than the ones who don’t know what they are.
