@schneidenbach @Apple I’ve had A LOT of fun this week explaining that the Neo is not a viable development machine as it basically an iPhone in a laptop case.

@Christophe74732 @rae_begins This is based on a true story interaction between a nurse who was a female white nurse and a patient who was out due to medical issues and the cops came trying to pin the accident on him. I can't remember entirely the cause for the accident but the nurse was arrested by the cops

@stickman_little @rae_begins Actually, this happened a few years ago. A cop arrested a nurse for not handing over a blood sample without consent or a warrant. @grok can you find that story/video?

Did the Pens win the Stanley Cup or something last night? Their fans sure are acting like it. #CBJ

First of all, asking Russian players in the US to criticize the invasion of Ukraine might as well be asking them if they would like their family members tortured before executing them, or just move on to the main event. It’s not a fair question because there is no way they can answer that doesn’t have repercussions, and at this point you’re just punishing them for being from Russia. Secondly I’m 100% ok excluding Russia from these events, but don’t call it “best vs. best.”

To my North American friends and the hockey community: ​Although you are far from Europe and may not see or feel the reality of russia’s actions - killing hundreds of people in Ukraine daily - we in Europe see it clearly. We are telling you that letting them back into international competition is not an option until russia gets the F out of Ukraine. ​To North American hockey journalists: start asking the right questions. Ask rus players how they feel about their country occupying neighboring nations. You will be "surprised" by the results.
BucciOT.Com@Buccigross

Russia should be among the 8 teams. Undoubtedly. Russian players decorate the NHL with their skill and commitment. To deny them is a slap in the face to players Nikita Kucherov who dedicate their lives to improving their skill level--at their benefit, yes--and thus enhances the entertainment value of the sport. Be above the sanctimonious and filth-muck of politics and politicians--the dregs of the earth. We are watching a hockey tournament.

I moved away from Vegas 30 years ago, but I still have family there. The easy, early success has created a somewhat entitled and obnoxious fanbase (not all, but most that I’ve met) who haven’t had to deal with real adversity yet. We’ll see how many fans stick when they’re knee deep in cap hell and are hoping to win the draft lottery.

I completely agree. I also will admit that fans are fickle. We've had instant success with the VGK; a Cup appearance in Year 1. Playoffs every year except one, and a Stanley Cup championship to top it all off. I am curious to see how that holds up when the team inevitably has a few down years. If the VGK go several years missing the playoffs and the new NBA team, the. A's or Raiders start winning big games, I would not be surprised to see a shift. But that doesn't make Vegas any different from any other city. And fortunately, we have an organization that is ruthlessly addicted to W's.

Even in the age of AI, I can do many tasks more quickly manually than via prompting. Entering the right prompt, granting access, waiting for response, reading response, reviewing results, and iterating on results is often more time-consuming than just manually making a change.

@TheBlueJunkies For a lot of people, #cbj aren’t supposed to win they are supposed to be “jobbers” to the rest of the league. Sympathy? Sure. Success. Never, and the knives come out. Can’t wait to see what happens they win the cup.

It’s crazy the switch up some other NHL teams fans have had on #CBJ this season. Last year was all about rooting for CBJ and hoping they do well because they didn’t have any expectations. But now since they’re one of the hottest in the league right now and have a little bit of success theres been a good amount of hate again. Oh well, you’re either on the wagon or you’re not.
