Instead of watching an hour of Netflix, watch this 2 hour hour Stanford lecture will teach you more about how LLMs like ChatGPT and Claude are built than most people working at top AI companies learn in their entire careers.

THE DESTINATION IS IMPORTANT. BUT IT’S THE JOURNEY THAT MATTERS. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Reflective and appreciative. The plays. The people. The highs. The lows. The work. The moments in between. That’s where the magic resides. For a Pittsburgh kid who loves football, a dream came true. Eli - you earned the right to earn a spot. Now go get it. - Love Mom & Dad

A special moment between @reredevaux, Golden Tempo, and Regina 🐴 🐶

Kimmel’s hateful and violent rhetoric is intended to divide our country. His monologue about my family isn’t comedy- his words are corrosive and deepens the political sickness within America. People like Kimmel shouldn’t have the opportunity to enter our homes each evening to spread hate. A coward, Kimmel hides behind ABC because he knows the network will keep running cover to protect him. Enough is enough.  It is time for ABC to take a stand.  How many times will ABC’s leadership enable Kimmel’s atrocious behavior at the expense of our community.

The math on this collection should mass-humble every streaming service on the planet. One guy. A Sony cassette recorder. 10,000 concerts over 40 years. 30,000 individual sets from 3,000+ artists. R.E.M., The Cure, Nirvana, Björk, Depeche Mode, Sonic Youth, Phish, Tracy Chapman, Boogie Down Productions. His first recording of Nirvana was July 8, 1989 at a tiny club called Dreamerz. Kurt Cobain was 20 years old. The band introduced themselves by saying they were from Seattle. This was two full years before Nevermind existed. That tape is now cleaned up and streaming for free. The digitization operation alone is wild. One volunteer drives to Jacobs' house monthly, picks up 10-20 boxes of 50-100 tapes each, runs them through 10 simultaneous cassette decks he repaired himself. 5,500 tapes digitized since late 2024. Dozens more volunteers across the US and Europe do mastering, metadata, and setlist verification. Sometimes they contact the actual artists to confirm what songs were played. The collection went from 171 recordings in January 2025 to over 2,300 by April 2026. At this rate it'll take years to upload everything. Spotify has 100 million tracks. Apple Music has 100 million. Neither has a recording of Nirvana's first Chicago show. A guy with a tape recorder in his pocket does.

40% of Pittsburgh hotel rooms are still available less than 2 weeks out from the NFL Draft. And the number of people at the draft each day seems grossly exaggerated. Excellent story by KDKA. Check it out.

Goodbye, friends, from Augusta Georgia! As a farewell, we’re giving away one of the limited edition Peach Reserve TOUR-ISSUE Staff Bags. To win: Just REPOST!

Staff Writer & Critic Ryan Montgomery visited the family-owned Revana Winery, located just north of St. Helena along Highway 29, where winemaker Rose Ballantine (second photo) has collaborated with Napa Valley consultant Thomas Rivers Brown for the past six years. During the tasting, To Kalon showed its presence in the glass with harmony and grace. The Revana Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley Oakville Beckstoffer To Kalon 2023 draws from old-vine plantings up to 30 years of age and reflects the character of the cooler 2023 vintage – concentrated dark fruit, a rounded, silken palate and melting tannins balanced by a fine, vivid line of acidity.

@CortesSteve As someone flying a lot - no its not working. I heard "F' Schumer & F' Booker" hundreds of time today at EWR

On the simplest level, here is the position of the Dems: People want illegals on America SO much, that they’ll wait in 4 hour TSA lines to protect the invaders. Will this political bet work?

May Michel RIP
