@nosilverv soccer analytics is surprisingly undecided on the question on how much a top coach matters at the margin at top level
most important thing is about having talented players
not to disagree with your main point

If you watch a soccer game on the tv and never played it’s meaningless. If you’ve played you can “read” the meaning: you can see not just what happens but, MUCH MORE, what’s INTENDED. This probably doesn’t cap ou and just goes to infinity (world class coaches etc)

met a friend and walked through a suburb at night and couldn’t get over how prevalent the yookay aesthetic was amongst the youths and then there was a stabbing

@BecomingCritter oh weird! yeah i tried the ol' "howlingmutant0 min_faves:10000" and it worked but a lot of his more boring political stuff is what blew up
English
idk who howlingmutant is except some shitbags doxxed him and he's handling it incredibly well
they may have 2xed their initially sub-500 follower count but im curious how much they raised mutant's profile and how much respect people have for him

Wow I’ve gotten so many Goodreads follow request nice to see the sharp uptick in literacy

@goblinodds i’ve been following him for years and he’s been like a daily shaking my head “how does he do it” type poster. strongly suggest reading his top tweets but his real game is often replies

Last month, we received a family gift of $260,000. We debated a lot and ultimately decided for a few reasons to drop it all on our 3.75% mortgage. Our mortgage went from $750k --> $490k We recognize we could have made much more investing, but it felt secure to take a little risk off the table. Mortgage calculator shows this will save us $285k in interest. We then recasted our mortgage and our payment dropped from ~$3,800 to ~$2,400. A little bit closer to freedom.

Ppl were always like “Howling Mutant must be a tv writer irl”. No, our boy is the Good Will Hunting of rape jokes.

@NathanpmYoung i feel like stand up is one of the worst forms of comedy and find most of it not funny 🤷🏻♂️

Never seen any of these movies. Saving them for my retirement in the year 2000-never gonna happen.

FINALLY! everyone who has ever watched any of the "OCEANS" films has been dying to see the backstory of Danny Ocean's parents!

@s33_us3rnam3 @xwanyex crypto as a panacea maybe
marc andreesen type bullishness etc

@campeters4 @xwanyex I'm wondering if maybe there's some non political, industry specific type of idea...maybe some coding language everyone thought was awesome or whatever idk....I guess maybe an example would be just-in-time delivery etc.?

This is the problem with basing everything you think about AI on thought experiments that I talked about before. In domains where even *extremely convincing* ideas can be tested, they often turn out to be wrong.
François Fleuret@francoisfleuret
And I find it bizarre because the very smart ideas colleagues and I have every day, for which we have very strong intellectual "proofs" that they are true, happen to be completely wrong 99% of the time. 2/2

@s33_us3rnam3 @xwanyex not sure if culture war stuff is what you’re looking for but the post war consensus lib worldview lol
eg something like south africa going as bad as it did
unless that counts as obviously dumb
English
@xwanyex Do you have any examples of extremely convincing ideas that turned out wrong? I'm probably too 20/20 hindsighted but every example i come up with I think "yeah that was obviously dumb as shit from the jump though..."

"One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest, but its Good" has been mainstream progressive ideology for the last few decades
Demorgan@RayGunEtiquette
The funniest thing about the whole "guys are just bitter about their school experiences" discourse is everyone for the past 20-30 years unanimously agreed that school was a living hell, but because guys are being more open about it, NOW its suddenly an issue.
