NEW INVESTIGATION 🚍: Baltimore City is the only district in the state that doesn't offer most students a yellow bus ride after elementary school. When that policy collided with school choice, it turned getting to class on time into a nightmare. thebaltimorebanner.com/education/k-12…

New: ICE says it temporarily shut down its Baltimore holding cells to comply with a court order and has since reopened them. The acknowledgement comes a week after we reported the cells were emptied a day before a congressional oversight visit. Story: thebanner.com/politics-power…

New story for @BaltimoreBanner: Maryland faces around 12,000 legal claims from people who allege they were sexually abused in the state's juvenile justice system. Lawmakers have not articulated a plan to pay them. #comments-header" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">thebanner.com/politics-power…

Definitely seeing this show up in local data, too. Recently in @BaltimoreBanner, Maryland’s mortgage divide: Recent buyers pay drastically more than longtime homeowners thebanner.com/community/hous…
John Lettieri@LettieriDC

Important new housing research from @jessrems: “By 2024, new homeowners were spending 26 percent of their income on housing, compared to 20 percent for existing homeowners — a six-percentage-point gap, the largest in nearly 40 years.”

50% of all relationship advice on Reddit is “leave.” 15 years of data, 52 million comments, and the trend line only goes one direction. A researcher filtered r/relationship_advice down to 1,166,592 quality comments and tracked what people actually recommend. In 2010, “End Relationship” sat around 30%. By 2025, it’s approaching 50%. “Communicate” dropped from 22% to 14%. “Compromise” collapsed from 7% to 3%. “Give Space” fell from 25% to 13%. Every category that requires patience lost ground every single year. The one category growing faster than “leave” is “Seek Therapy,” which went from 1% to 6%. The subreddit is slowly learning to say “this is above my pay grade.” Train a model on this dataset and it would absolutely tell people to break up. The training data is 50% “leave” and climbing. The model wouldn’t be broken. It would be accurately reflecting what 52 million commenters actually believe about your relationship. A 50% prior that you should leave, a 14% prior that you should talk about it, and a 6% prior that you need a professional. That’s not LLM psychosis. That’s the median human opinion on your relationship, backed by the largest advice dataset ever assembled.

LLM that keeps telling people to break up because it’s been trained on relationship advice subreddits

The results are in! We asked you to draw downtown and you delivered. @allanjvestal reviewed hundreds of your maps and found interesting trends and thoughtful explanations. What shocked me the most? Only about 1 in 4 maps had Little Italy downtown 🇮🇹 thebanner.com/community/loca…

The pipeline that drives discovery - new knowledge and treatments for diseases that affect us all - is collapsing in the United States. New NIH funding opportunities are down 91% this fiscal year.

BREAKING: The nearly six-month search for Tristan King came to an end Friday morning in Baltimore’s Curtis Bay neighborhood, according to his family’s attorney and several people familiar with his case. The United States Marshals Service found the 9-year-old boy at a run-down house on Filbert Street, not two miles from where he first went missing last September. buff.ly/cZ5mLsW

Historians, scholars and artists are working to unearth, record, preserve and share Maryland’s LGBTQ+ history— work they say is all the more urgent as the Trump administration and conservative legislatures try to roll back the rights of queer people. thebanner.com/community/loca…

Bam Adebayo broke math. His 83-point game was 8.5 standard deviations above his career average (or ~1 in 53 quadrillion) Based on career avgs, its like: Patrick Mahomes passing for 915 yards Justin Verlander throwing 214 pitches in a start Wilt Chamberlain grabbing 79 rebounds

My latest: One correctional officer pummeled the inmate while two others watched and didn’t intervene. A sergeant then instructed them to delete video footage of the incident’s aftermath. No one was supposed to find out what really happened. thebanner.com/community/crim…

Nine-year-old Tristan King has been missing since Sept. 24, longer than any other child his age in Maryland, through one of Baltimore’s coldest winters on record. Missing posters show a blurry photo of a little boy with curly hair and deep-brown eyes. It says he was last seen wearing a white sweater and blue NBA pajama pants. What it doesn’t say is that the past year of Tristan’s life was a procession of misery and mishaps, or that red tape and mistakes hampered the agencies responsible for finding him. buff.ly/PbuxluN

New video footage shows a US Tomahawk missile hitting an IRGC facility in Minab, Iran, on Feb 28, showing for the first time that the US struck the area. The footage also shows smoke already rising from the vicinity of the girls’ school, where 175 people were reportedly killed.
