1. His Dean Smith impression is funny, and it seems like they had a good relationship 2. Dean was 100% correct. The rules are the rules and you don’t change them to your liking. Hess getting “revenge” for being reminded of that just backs up everything I felt about him as a ref

"You can’t make up your own rules." Karl Hess shares with @richroth70 the time Dean Smith sent him "homework" after a 50-point blowout. Hear how Karl got revenge 😂 🔗Full interview on YouTube #MarchMadness #ACC #NoHoldsBarred #NCAAHoops #UNC #CollegeHoops #UVa #Virginia

I’m 23. Give me oddly specific life tips. No general ”surround yourself with positive people” tips. I want the most random, specific advice possible.

@jaycaspiankang I got blocked by @tarheelblog for making that argument about Justin Jackson after the 2017 title. Some “fans” are just selfish and don’t actually care what is best for the players

Carolina fans in the replies asking him to stay another year… come on lol he was one of the 3 best freshman we’ve ever had, he was one of the best teammates we’ve ever had, and he should just go live out his life’s dream. He gave Carolina more than enough.

@VicVijayakumar But you also need to run all the numbers. Estimated appreciation, primary residence capital gains exclusion from a sale (you have a 3 year window from when you moved), estimated rent/vacancy/maintenance, etc.

@VicVijayakumar I think it partially depends on where it is located. We bought a new place 3 years ago. Kept the old one (2.5% rate w/8 years left) and are renting it out. Both in downtown Cary (hard to come by). We may move back after kids are out of the house.

Okay what would you do? We moved from our “starter home” (2.25% 20-yr fixed) to our “forever home” (6.5% fml). We’ve finally cleaned out the old house and have people in there painting / grouting / fixing holes. Still torn on whether we should sell it or rent it out. I’d love to sell it, take the cash, pay down the new mortgage. But people keep telling me it would be foolish to get rid of a hard asset with that low of a mortgage rate.

Let's call a spade a spade. White labeling and reselling is not innovation.

I hate systems that do this. It feels like the lazy approach to handling surges in loads and DB transactions. Cary is not small, but it's not massive. ~180,000 people live here. The camps being registered for will have probably 10-100 kids each.

@earnjam @KatieKeithBarn2 Not being a native English speaker is suddenly an advantage. I make mistakes no AI ever would, and now y’all know it’s really me 😅🫣

I respect people using AI as a tool, but I have no respect for people who let blatantly AI-sounding text represent them - whether it’s blog posts, video scripts, applying for work, or pitching to be a podcast guest. These things are supposed to reflect you as an individual, so sounding like a robot means you have no credibility. AI-speak is getting harder to avoid, but at least it makes the genuine people easy to spot.

How do people not understand that there’s no actual data here? You had an LLM create a video based on other videos it’s been trained on. What you don’t have here is any geometry, systems, models, animations, shaders… in short: You really got nothing. But for some reason the technically inept think that we’re close to this becoming a fully interactive thing that makes sense and is fun to play. Good Luck with that!

This is absolutely insane 🫠 People are yearning for a LOTR game like this. We’ve somehow normalized waiting 2 years for 6 episodes of a TV show and a decade for a game sequel. Imagine getting a new GTA game every year. AI will replace the bottlenecks, not human direction.

I genuinely think the biggest lesson that the business world is going to have to learn about AI is that “I used AI to do 90% of a task so now you just need to clean up the last 10%” is not a task 90% done by you and 10% by me, it’s a task done 5% by you and 95% by me.

Getting to the unfortunate age where certain slang makes me mad. Top of the list is "drip." Just clench-my-fists furious every time I hear it

@briancoords Models are getting better at block markup, but to some extent we are paying the price for technical design decisions made 8-10 years ago. 😕

What do you think? For me I think the biggest issue is how hard it is for AI to manipulate content in the site editor. The AI tools coming to 7.0 are critical, but it feels like half the picture when AI struggles with handling basic design implementations.

I’ve been chatting with @briancoords about filming another “How to fix…” video. What should we tackle next? Big problems. Small annoyances. Anything welcome. (And yes, let’s keep it kind.)
