Jared 🧐

The New York Knicks just played the most dominant 10-game stretch in NBA history, and it's not even remotely close

@BrandonRahbar One play vs. every play

Jared McCain is 6’3”. Goes into Wemby’s body and scores. Not entirely sure why Wemby threw his head back like that but surely all the talking heads will dedicate full segments to it.

Not even the writers of Black Mirror could conjure up something this fucking sadistic.

While I do find this annoying, I also think it's extremely relevant to point out the fact that he was only awarded 6 trips to the line this game

@BaruthaAlex Don't do this...

Wemby's here to save the league guys

@finwiz416 @kylegriffin1 @jerseygirlnews That makes it worse. You realize that makes it much worse, right?

@kylegriffin1 @jerseygirlnews You are a fucking lying commie demon. You left out the part that this was a deal to drop the $10B case against the IRS. Trump takes $0.

BREAKING: It's official. The Trump DOJ just confirmed the creation of a $1.776 billion slush fund that can be used to pay Trump allies who claim they've been wrongfully targeted by the Biden admin's ‘weaponization' — including, reportedly, Jan. 6 insurrectionists.

@ShamsCharania What in the actual fuck? This is horrific

Brandon Clarke of the Memphis Grizzlies has died at 29 years old. RIP.

@cwebbonline What's funny is that all these goobers will return to lick the boot that kicks them

MAGA is melting down after buyers got an email confirming they will never get their Trump Phones, or even get their deposits back. An estimated 590,000 people reportedly paid a $100 deposit each, roughly $59 million collected, and not a single confirmed customer has received a phone. And remember, this thing was supposed to be “Made in America.” But if it ever gets made at all, it’ll reportedly be made in China. Trump knows his base is full of suckers, and they keep proving him right.

@jasehoops @dailythunder If he only did this, no one would complain. Nice propaganda, tho

unwatchable tho

@DrDiGiorgio @JonahDispatch I'd rather have a card in my wallet and have to wait a year to see a doctor for free than be forced into bankruptcy when I get picked up by an ambulance for something I've been putting off because I can't afford to go see a doctor.

This is the ultimate midwit healthcare take. No, 32 countries have not “figured out” universal healthcare. The UK has “free” healthcare, and roughly 1 in 3 cancer patients in England still fail to start treatment within 62 days of urgent referral. Canada has “free” healthcare, and the median wait for neurosurgical treatment is around a year. Australia has “free” healthcare, and over half the country still buys private insurance despite paying for a public universal system with their taxes. Switzerland has universal coverage, because residents are required to buy private insurance. There is no government system where benevolent bureaucrats tuck you in at night with a warm blanket and an MRI appointment. The actual lesson from other wealthy countries is not “they figured it out.” America’s system has huge problems. Our prices are insane, insurance markets are distorted, and hospital systems are cartelized. Our regulations make care more expensive than it needs to be. Yet we still guarantee access to even the 8% who don’t have coverage. We give easy routes to qualify for medicaid for those with disabilities. Pretending the rest of the world solved healthcare because they slapped the word “universal” on a rationing scheme is not analysis. It is bumper sticker policy for people who think access means having a card in your wallet while you wait a year to see the doctor you need.

It's not about volume, it's the way SGA gets to the line, with foul baiting bullshit

OKC is bad for the league in more ways than one. Perhaps one of the most damaging franchises in modern history.

MPJ once again said that he took his foot off the gas after not making the All-Star team: "I regret that once I didn’t make that All-Star game, I let my foot off the gas because there really wasn’t anything we were playing for anymore. We couldn’t make the playoffs, I couldn’t be an All-Star... I wasn’t in the weight room as much, I wasn’t preparing as much, and my three-point percentage dropped." MPJ averaged 20.5 points on 40.9% shooting from the field and 25.6% from three over his final 14 games after the All-Star reserves were announced.

🚨 University professors have been saying AI is completely destroying learning and that we'll soon have an AI-powered, semi-illiterate workforce. Here's a glimpse into the educational apocalypse: "Sarah, a freshman at Wilfrid Laurier University in Ontario, said she first used ChatGPT to cheat during the spring semester of her final year of high school. (...) After getting acquainted with the chatbot, Sarah used it for all her classes: Indigenous studies, law, English, and a “hippie farming class” called Green Industries. “My grades were amazing,” she said. “It changed my life.” Sarah continued to use AI when she started college this past fall. Why wouldn’t she? Rarely did she sit in class and not see other students’ laptops open to ChatGPT. Toward the end of the semester, she began to think she might be dependent on the website. She already considered herself addicted to TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat, and Reddit, where she writes under the username maybeimnotsmart. “I spend so much time on TikTok,” she said. “Hours and hours, until my eyes start hurting, which makes it hard to plan and do my schoolwork. With ChatGPT, I can write an essay in two hours that normally takes 12.” - "By November, Williams estimated that at least half of his students were using AI to write their papers. Attempts at accountability were pointless. Williams had no faith in AI detectors, and the professor teaching the class instructed him not to fail individual papers, even the clearly AI-smoothed ones. “Every time I brought it up with the professor, I got the sense he was underestimating the power of ChatGPT, and the departmental stance was, ‘Well, it’s a slippery slope, and we can’t really prove they’re using AI,’” Williams said. “I was told to grade based on what the essay would’ve gotten if it were a ‘true attempt at a paper.’ So I was grading people on their ability to use ChatGPT.” - AI in education is a serious topic, and many schools and universities are blindly jumping into the "AI-first" wave without considering short and long-term consequences. It would be great to hear more from teachers and educators to understand potential solutions. This might be a great opportunity for rethinking the education system and how students are assessed. - 👉 Link to the full article below. 👉 To learn more about AI's legal and ethical challenges, join my newsletter's 94,700+ subscribers (link below).

@BaruthaAlex I believe in this context it means unlikeable

Alperen Sengun and KAT are both No. 2 options on 50 win teams, and Gobert is 4X DPOY. What does overrated even mean anymore?

The actual answer to this question is the fraudulent Nikola Jokic, but everyone's too much of a coward to say it 👹👹

Why the fuck is the NBA stacking playoff games on top of each other during the second round?? Two games on the schedule should be a double header, instead you gotta pick one 🙄🙄🙄

@jemelehill @DCWIZ They beat Houston's G7 record!

Do y’all know how hard it is to do this in the NBA?
