@MartyCaswell @FriarTerritory This is possibly the most humble I've heard Manny. Definitely feeling it.

Manny Machado on if Padres can sustain their winning pct if offensive core doesn't figure it out "I kind of doubt that. 1, we can't sustain it. 2, I have confidence in everybody in this room that we're going to be right where we need to be." @FriarTerritory

@TingDing69 @aedmondstv Can't fall from the bottom amirite

@billassault @aedmondstv I don’t think you have anything to worry about.

Petco Park scoreboard is ruthless 😂😂 #padres

@paulg I honestly just leave

If a site or app forces me to answer some unnecessary question before I can continue, I always give a wrong answer. How did you hear about us? Radio. Does anyone else do that?

@Padres Really exciting stuff

Final.

Who is telling #Padres hitters to hack wildly at first pitch balls with no regard for who's throwing?

@MikeNellis This describes every member of Congress at all times

Call me old-fashioned, but I think it should be a bigger story that a sitting Republican member of Congress is missing, nobody knows where he is, yet he’s somehow still insider trading.

@RyanCohen24 They're only human. They need cope too.

The Padres offense is making me very sad but Don and Mud are cracking me up so shoutout the best booth in ball

Can't go 0-for-8+ with RISP for the 4th game in a row if nobody gets on base! #Padres

@Boltcutterlab @sri9s I can see the context could matter here. Documentation I deal with tends to be in living-document form, and consumed by users with varying levels of technical awareness, so considering reader interpretation while writing the material is important.

@billassault @sri9s Documentation is transactional, not relational. Transactional consumption warrants transactional production. IMO but I'd love to hear the counterpoint

Does it really matter whether people write their own thoughts or use AI to write them?

@Boltcutterlab @sri9s Just curious - why are readers of documentation less deserving of something the writer put care into?

@sri9s In what context? Purely documentation, AI is the way to go. A story you want humans to read & connect with, get fucked clanker.

@sri9s If you're too lazy to curate your own writing for the sake of your readers' time (make it clear/concise), why should anyone bother reading your writing.

@helloitsolly @Wise If you saw this occur in the moment, why not demand a receipt?

I got scammed in Austin After paying with Apple Pay for a drink, I saw the staff member add a $10 tip, sign as me and decline the receipt I confronted them in the moment but they denied it I am trying to get @Wise to investigate it, but they're asking for evidence, which I don't have What exactly can I do here? I don't care about the tip, and would've left one, I just cannot stand the dishonesty

@Ratio_Disputati @jimstewartson Oh, look, another dude who just learned the word Luddite.

@jimstewartson Oh, look, another Luddite.

The AI industry is a machine for converting enormous amounts of money into environmental devastation, workplace disruption, mental illness, and slop.

@Padres Excellent job by Canning. As far as the unwatchable offense goes, the last three games: 0-for-7 with risp 0-for-8 with risp 0-for-10 with risp Can't wait to see where the org takes this offense next.

Final.

@SeanThomas39 All we can do is pontificate. Only thing that's certain is they're fucking unwatchable.

@billassault How much of collapse is weighted on stars ve organization and coaching? I don’t know either.

Find it hard to believe that this many hitters all became terrible at the same time for this long, and it doesn't have *something* to do with coaching and/or game preparation. #Padres

@JDMe0412 @DevineGospel This is idiotic

Only down 1 and we got Luzardo out the game!

@SeanThomas39 This is an especially hard fall. Coaching could be a factor, but it could just as easily be other organizational issues, like lack of faith in new ownership, poor prep, bad data, etc. It can't all be individual collapses.

@billassault Offense has been below average for awhile and we recycle hitting coaches every year So I’m hard pressed on it being coaching

@SeanThomas39 They're talented. That's my point. Individual performance is the players' responsibility. How do they all have awful approaches? Jackson, especially. He's young and we know has excellent baseball IQ. It looks like he's following someone else's plan... and it's a bad one.

@billassault Let’s take their statement the other way. Are Manny’s, Tatis’s, Jackson’s all star and HOF success because of the hitting coach?

@jonschaeffer Suboptimal

@billassault Not ideal

Get a hit with a runner in scoring position challenge.
