@RyanJones @lilyraynyc Also don't zoom the map out to cover a 50 mile radius.

@lilyraynyc the update we need is when I search "hotels near address" - keep the map icon for the address I typed visible.....

@ratocaster @UrbanCourtyard I don’t think you do, in a master bedroom. It’s really a waste of space

So what are your thoughts on the floor plan of the 5BD bi-level condo in the new Brooklyn courtyard dev?
Alicia, Courtyard Urbanist@UrbanCourtyard
new substack article on a new $400M courtyard block in Brooklyn, the Oosten The Oosten shows that courtyard blocks can be built in the United States—but without smaller parcels they tend to become luxury megaprojects rather than diverse neighborhoods. link below

@andrewsharp I’m always happy to find someone else who hates the play-in. Too many teams already made the playoffs. The playoffs are too long (at the very least, no play-in and go back to 5 game 1st round) bad teams shouldn’t make it.

This is not what we meant when we said we want AI Data in search console.

Hi what city wants to pilot courtyard blocks?
There may be HUD $ coming for point access block pilot programs
Section 103 of new house bill funds prototype point-access block modules, subsidize initial demonstration buildings, and support technical validation such as fire modeling and egress studies (this would be AMAZING in a courtyard block pilot) @votejohngibbs

@thevoiceofevan The NBA "solved" tanking by turning bad teams into that dude buying lotto tickets from the gas station at 4AM.
English
It will never cease to amaze me how Adam Silver’s solution to tanking was “make the bad teams stay bad forever”
NetsMuse@NetsMuse
Since the draft lottery odds change in 2019: - The team with the worst record has not picked #1 for 6 years straight. - The team with the worst record has fallen to #5 three years in a row. - Play-In Tournament teams have won the last two #1 picks (Mavs and Hawks) Bad teams simply don't have a chance to get better.

@fmaddenNBA Ajax is the new Beauchamp. Irrational hype from fans despite not showing he’s an NBA rotation player. Dude has fun moments and last year his athleticism helped on a team that could/would not run…
But he’s just not that good. It’s okay.
English
Hard to make the “AJax hasn’t gotten a chance because Doc hates young guys” argument when he started 43 games last year and 2 of Bucks starters are now Rollins (younger than him, scrap heap 2-way guy signed after AJax was drafted) and AJ (two-way guy signed same summer as AJax).
Skylar Kane Berge@SkylarKaneBerge
@fmaddenNBA wtf are you talking about? Ajax has gotten minimal minutes since he was drafted. He has potential to be three and D, the minute he did play( nba cup) he was our best defender, bucks hate playing their young talent, rather just trade it for someone in a package deal

@WhoreOfSEO “When Epstein's rankings and reputation fell off a cliff, Seckel did too.”
FTFY 😂
English
@ratocaster When Epstein's rankings and reputation fell off a cliff his fate was sealed.
English
The name Al Seckel appears in many SEO and reputation management emails with Epstein, like this one (ID: EFTA02416819). The Guardian has even reported on Seckel's work with Epstein.
As it turns out, Seckel's body was found at the bottom of a cliff in near his home in France.

Are the SEO agencies and SEOs who helped Jeffrey Epstein - after he was already a known paedo - still around and doing business? 'I asked the top SEO guy in the US to look into getting your good sites listed over your bad sites he is looking into it' Who was this top SEO guy?

@fmaddenNBA IIRC Ibaka was someone Horst wanted. Even given he had the back of a 75 year old BMW mechanic at the time… this isn’t the worst move Jon made. But it’s still indefensible.
English
Would it make people feel better if I told you the most valuable thing the Bucks got was the 36th pick in the following draft and they used it to select AJax over the likes of Toumani Camara, GG Jackson, Trayce Jackson-Davis and Jordan Walsh
Bucks Lead@BucksLead
4 years ago today, the Bucks traded Donte DiVincenzo, Rodney Hood and Semi Ojeleye for Serge Ibaka in a 4-team trade.

@rossstevens_uk Your online safety act. They didn’t want to verify user’s ages.

Urghm, no one told me that imgur.com is no longer available to use in the UK.
When and why did that happen!?

@NoTechBen People are wrong about the specifics of how it works but I think it’s still a fair sentiment that Kalshi is capitalizing on addiction and making it easier for people struggling with these issues to hurt themselves and families. And athletes can still profit by swinging outcomes.
English
Incredible stuff reading responses that quite clearly don’t understand a single thing I wrote, and seem proud of that!
What is the difference between a prediction market and a gambling app?
- With a gambling app like FanDuel you are taking on the house. They make money by ensuring more people lose than win.
- In a prediction market you are betting against other people. Kalshi makes money by taking a fee on every bet, not by being on the other side of bets. They want volume but don’t care about outcome.
If you wanted to make allegations against Giannis, I guess it’s that he was juicing volume on Kalshi’s behalf. But given the relative numbers of the Giannis prediction market compared to Kalshi as a whole, that’s ridiculous. But at least it’s a critique that has some relationship to reality unlike most of the allegations.
As for regulation, Kalshi is in fact regulated by the CFTC. They are unique in that regard, unlike say Polymarket which has to operate off shore. There is a dispute as to whether sports predictions are a commodity. What they are not is a gambling book à la Fan Duel.
I don’t really have an interest here. This is probably a pretty dumb endorsement, but I think it’s ridiculous to be making the links people are making. Most of all the sheer amount of ignorance and misinformation is pretty galling.
English
1. It’s a prediction market that takes a fee on a bet, not the other side. There is no house. Athletes endorsing Draft Kings et al much worse
2. Kalshi is fully regulated (other prediction markets are not)
The sheer amount of misinformation around this has been incredible to watch.
RedditCFB@RedditCFB
Giannis made up a rumor that he would leave the Bucks, causing people to bet a total of $23M as to whether/where he would go on Kalshi, an unregulated gambling/insider trading platform. He stays in Milwaukee, and comes out today as a Kalshi stakeholder.
English
Horst is going to further destroy the team to save his job. Amazing.
Shams Charania@ShamsCharania
The Milwaukee Bucks have agreed to trade Cole Anthony and Amir Coffey to the Phoenix Suns for Nick Richards and Nigel Hayes-Davis, sources tell ESPN.
English
This reads like a prospectus for Enron.
Shams Charania@ShamsCharania
The Wizards are acquiring a future Hall of Fame big man in Davis, one of the top 75 greatest players, to add to their core of Trae Young, Alex Sarr, Kyshawn George, Tre Johnson and Bilal Coulibaly. Dallas receives long-term assets and opens significant flexibility to build around Cooper Flagg.

@NateDuncanNBA This is the "I invited Adrian Griffin to my wedding" of "I want to stay with the Bucks".

“You know basketball. You see basketball. You understand basketball. You’ve been around greatness. You’ve been around a championship team. You’ve been around a good culture. You’ve been around when the popcorn was popping. You were around; you saw it. If you tell me that that’s possible, we can hang up the phone and keep on moving with our day.”
Neither of us hung up the phone, and neither of us moved about the rest of our days.
Eric Nehm@eric_nehm
Last night, I chatted with Giannis Antetokounmpo about how he is feeling heading into the trade deadline. "I want to be here, but I want to be here to win, not fighting for my life to make the playoffs." On a difficult situation, at @TheAthletic: nytimes.com/athletic/70208…

@WhoreOfSEO Yeah, my rough understanding is about half of the files deemed eligible for release have been released. So there's the other half. Plus the stuff that was deemed too sensitive to release for whatever reasons. Lots more to come, in theory.
English
@ratocaster It is my understanding there are more files to be released. If so, maybe we will find out who from the SEO was involved with Epstein and took his money.
English

'I asked the top SEO guy in the US to look into getting your good sites listed over your bad sites he is looking into it' Who was this top SEO guy?
English
@WhoreOfSEO Evil bastard with money, clueless about tech. Scumbag tech people, happy to take his money.
I'm really curious to know all the names from our industry that were involved.
English
@ratocaster Based on what's in the files, I don't know exactly. But like almost all SEO related projects, there's always multiple people involved. And they all would have known he was a paedo but took the money anyway.
