@SNACKPACK1239 @TheBlogfines Way too much emphasis placed on the manager and switching around professional hitters in a lineup . You can almost never point back to a change in the line-up that made any kind of meaningful impact on a team.

As I've said, I'd probably just put Ian Happ at leadoff where his strong OBP skills are especially useful. He's up to a 33.2% K rate now (it was actually quite fine at 22.8 last year). Need more contact likelihood in the middle of the order vs. *that* and Suzuki back-to-back.

I'm glad that Ken released this statement and the flawed 2024 autopsy. If he'd done this in the first place and not lied about why it hadn't been released, things might be different. As it stands, this raises more questions about his judgment, candor and ability to lead the DNC.

Should we be worried about the Cubs 24th ranked batting average with runners in scoring position? The Cubs lead MLB in chances with RISP (579 plate appearances), and they have the 7th most base hits (113 hits, video shows all of them). Let's look deeper. Thread (1/5)

@DEvanAltman For as talented as the Suzuki is with a bat, he looks like a total bozo out there sometimes. I wonder what he looks like when he tries dancing.

Man, the Cubs look like they’re really pressing now. Body language is poor, chasing stuff and getting frozen more than before. Gotta find a way to get something going.

@Brett_A_Taylor @Brett_A_Taylor ABS is rational and fans are not, and an uncomfortable number of fans are even delusional. The hope is that MLB does the rational thing and enables ABS full-time ignoring the outbursts from the luddites.

Found out today that @usebubbles will happily record your meeting and then hold all your data hostage until you pay. I'm glad that clipcabinet.com never does that.

@BleacherNation I just want to be able to find the Cubs bullets each morning. They're always buried somewhere and I can't find them.

A Anthropic acabou de matar o Markdown. Um engenheiro do Claude Code publicou um artigo ontem que pode decretar o início de uma nova era. A tese é brutal: Markdown nunca foi o formato certo para comunicação entre humanos e IA. Era só o que tínhamos. O próprio autor admite que nunca leu um arquivo Markdown gerado por IA com mais de 100 linhas até o fim. Você também não lê. Eu também não. A sacada: Markdown assume que você vai ler do início ao fim. HTML assume que você quer ver o que importa e mexer com as mãos. Na prática: → 30 tickets de projeto viram kanban arrastável com colunas Now / Next / Later / Cut e botão de exportar → Lógica de rate limiting vira flowchart SVG com código inline, no lugar de 200 linhas de texto → Code review vira diff colorizado com grafos de dependência entre módulos → Parâmetros de animação, cores, regex, cron jobs ganham sliders com preview ao vivo → Specs de projeto viram 6 opções lado a lado com mockups interativos Todos exemplos reais do artigo. Todos substituem um muro de texto por algo que você de fato abre e usa. O trade-off existe: HTML é 2-4x mais lento para gerar. Mas com contexto de 1 milhão de tokens, esse custo sumiu. E a parte que ninguém está discutindo: o HTML gerado não é só para humanos. O agente de verificação também lê. O spec deixou de ser documento e virou memória compartilhada entre agentes. Markdown é relatório. HTML é interface. Relatórios são para ler. Interfaces são para continuar o trabalho. Se você usa IA em 2026 e ainda pede Markdown para tudo, você pode estar usando um smartphone como lanterna.

Leaving out that Jeff Bezos’ mom immediately married a Cuban-American engineer who wound up working at peak-Exxon, and that the two had the capital to give him a quarter million dollar loan after he graduated from Princeton (or better yet, leaving out that Jeff’s mom’s father was ‘the regional director of the US’ Atomic Energy Agency in New Mexico… you know, the thing that managed Los Alamos) is certainly a choice.

Jeff Bezos was born in Alberquerque to a 17 year old high school mom who divorced his alcoholic dad before Jeff was 2. He worked at McDonald's before his grades earned his way into Princeton. He started Amazon in a garage with a 245k investment from his parents. That's reality.
