Re: Scott Pelley/ @CBS--I've been on staff at magazines when an editor you like is replaced by an outsider you distrust. I've never thrown a fit like Pelley did. That's just not what you do. You make the new person feel at home and then stab them in the back as soon as you can.

1. The Gather and the Launch
To initiate a legal jump-stop, the player must gather the ball (control it with two hands or let it come to rest in one hand) while progressing.
They must jump off one foot. If a player leaves the floor off both feet to jump-stop, it is an automatic traveling violation.
English
Jimmy, bubbele, this is completely legal. Left foot is the gather. Jump stop is step 1. Either foot can be the pivot foot. Right foot steps, establishing left foot as pivot. Left doesn't move an inch til the jump. Perfection. 🎥 @BenStiller

Not a hater but this is clearly a travel. So yes, how do you play sound defense on that?

They say players in the modern NBA don’t play defense
What in the world are you supposed to do with this?

@CathieDWood @grok, compare the ARK venture fund with the SP 500 index since ARK fund inception.
English
When we launched the ARK Venture Fund in September 2022, our goal was clear: democratize access to venture capital and many of the most important innovation platforms evolving today.
Today, the ARK Venture Fund has surpassed $1 billion in assets under management. What stands out to us most is the acceleration in adoption. It took just over two years to reach our first $100 million. The next $900 million followed in roughly 18 months, with the last $500 million coming in only about five months.
In our view, investors increasingly understand that many of the most transformative companies in the world are staying private longer. Public markets alone no longer provide full exposure to disruptive innovation.
Through the ARK Venture Fund, investors can access companies we believe are shaping the future, including SpaceX, OpenAI, Anthropic, Figure AI, Epic Games, and others, at a minimum investment accessible to a much broader audience.
This milestone feels less like a finish line and more like confirmation that innovation is becoming the new asset class.
To our shareholders, advisors, and partners: thank you for your trust and conviction. We believe we are still in the early stages of one of the most profound technological transformations in history.

The ARK Venture Fund crossed $1 billion in AUM. For decades, access to private innovation was locked behind accredited investor rules and seven-figure minimums. We built the ARK Venture Fund to change that. A billion dollars later, investors agreed. Learn more at ark-ventures.com.

@FrankLuntz If you think this is bad, and it is, you should also have been worried when Trump did it.

Sen. Bernie Sanders says he will propose a bill to give the public a 50% stake in large AI companies.
Bernie Sanders@BernieSanders
I will soon be introducing a bill to give the public a 50% ownership stake in the largest AI companies in America. This would guarantee that the trillions created by AI are used to improve the lives of all of us — and block oligarch decisions that harm the American people.

THEO VON: “Was there anybody who was immune to COVID-19?”
DR. MCCULLOUGH: “There’s one adult group. You’re going to laugh.”
[Theo Von listens closely for the reveal]
DR. MCCULLOUGH: “Smokers… They got very mild cases. And they don’t get long COVID.”
THEO VON: “Why?”
MCCULLOUGH: “Because smokers maintain a level of nicotine in the bloodstream… Smoking blocks the spike protein. It’s amazing. I thought smokers were going to go down.”
THEO VON: “Do you think that’s a good idea [to use nicotine patches] on a regular basis?”
DR. MCCULLOUGH: “I think [it’s a good idea] if they have long COVID... Nicotine, don’t forget, is a nootropic. A nootropic is a drug that makes the brain function more effectively... It’s addictive, but it’s not harmful to the human body... Nicotine patches are perfectly safe.”

Wearable culture is a direct backlash to watching elderly people with varicose veins, diabetes, and being so fat/weak they can't pick up their own grandkids while facing the risk of death from a slight fall
If wanting to be a healthy grandfather makes me cringe then so be it

Have a glass. Get some sleep. Stop tracking yourself. The millennial fixation with wearable devices and health optimization is pointless quackery. thefp.com/p/health-obses…

@theallinpod @bgurley What people forget when analyzing the impact of new technology, including AI, is the competition effect. So you find you can do more with less, but your competitor is doing even more, so you must do more. Technology changes don't happen in a vacuum.

This United States made an estimated $186 billion of improper payments last year, while borrowing nearly 10x that -- $1.8 trillion.
I'm happy the Vice President is focused on fighting fraud .. we shouldn't be wasting scarce federal dollars.
But this won't balance the budget.

@esaagar Breaking: seniors have *access to* retirement savings. This will come as welcome news to those seniors who thought they had know retirement savings. And, more good news, it's been compounding for decades.
English
One of the most destructive myths in politics: Seniors have the opposite of a fixed income. They get inflation adjusted tax free income, subsidized healthcare, and access to retirement savings that if used properly should have compounded over decades
Let’s Put It To a Vote@Xvotesays
@esaagar By the time I’m 65 I’ll have paid property tax for 40 years. Absolutely f’n right to stop the madness. Old people have n a fixed income have already paid enough!

Never thought I'd say this about a Ferrari, but this is one of the ugliest EV designs ever, and it can be all yours for $640,000 lol
Sawyer Merritt@SawyerMerritt
Ferrari has just officially unveiled its first ever all-electric car, called the Ferrari Luce. • Starting price: $640,000 • Interior co-designed with Apple's former head of design, Jony Ive • Range: 280 miles (expected EPA) • Peak charging speed: 350kW • 122 kWh battery • 1,050 horsepower • 0-60mph: 2.4s • 800v • Four-door four-seater • Four electric motors • OLED screens • Weight: 4,982 lbs • Front motors spin to 30,000 rpm, rears hit 25,500 rpm • Car uses an accelerometer to capture real vibrations from the electric motors & rear chassis. An algorithm filters out unpleasant frequencies and amplifies only the more “musical” sounds. This can be heard inside and outside the car. • Paddle shifter on steering wheel changes how aggressively torque is delivered, with five different levels • The trunk has 21.1 cubic feet of space, the largest luggage capacity the company has ever offered • 197.6 inches long, about as long as a Tesla Model S U.S. deliveries start in Q2 2027.
