I've been building a lot lately and figured I'd start documenting the process. Latest project was for a group of tax deed investors who needed auction dates from dozens of scattered sites in one place. porterintelligent.com/blog/tax-aucti…

Hershey said Wednesday it will use classic recipes for all Reese's products starting next year, a change that comes after the grandson of Reese's founder criticized the company for shifting to cheaper ingredients. cbsn.ws/4dooQWQ

OK, I have a cool idea of something I want to build, but it sounds like I need a developer to help me. Claude says we have gone beyond it’s capabilities. I want to build an AI chat tool that my employees can chat with. The tool will have access via API to my Podium account and my Housecall Pro account. They can ask questions pertaining any conversation with a customer or any recent job that we have done in the AI will be able to access any of our data and answer. I’m pasting in the comments what Claude says we need to do.

And this right here, what just happened in Indiana, is why making an example of the Jazz was a short-sighted decision/slippery slope. 1) Zubac returns to action from extended time off, plays heavy 1H minutes. Looks good scoring 8 PTS (4-6 FG). 2) Nembhard drops 23 PTS (!) in the 1H in just 17 mins. They both disappear at halftime, and dont play a single 2H second in what was a respectably close game for a majority of it. Pacers (a team with losing incentive) lose. Sound familiar? The franchise comms team will likely issue an injury management explanation to avoid the eye of Secaucus Sauron/refute the imminent tanking allegations. Is it possible both players got sore in the locker room/hurt in the first half? Sure, I guess. The point here is that by fining the Jazz for conduct detrimental to the league, NOT (⬅️) a Player Participation Policy violation, your games are now going to be under the microscope in the event this type of starter rotation activity occurs again. You can’t just fine one franchise and hang their reputation from a tree to scare the other citizens from replicating the same behavior. That selective enforcement is what put you in the spotlight originally, because Jaren Jackson Jr./Lauri Markkanen ended up either getting surgery or having a legitimate hip injury keeping them out for the foreseeable future. Nembhard/Zubac may end up experiencing something similar to JJJ/Markkanen, they may not, but the inconsistent enforcement WITHOUT knowing their personal medical records is reflective of a business that only steps in when the seat gets hot. The Jazz ended up winning some of those games they were so highly scrutinized for. The Pacers lost tonight. This alone does not justify penalizing the Pacers, because Micah Potter was trying to win just as much as Brice Sensabaugh was for Utah. Players dont tank. If you’re not going to fine the Pacers for this tonight, then just give the Jazz governors their $500,000 back, because this hypocrisy is what’s damaging the league reputation more than the integrity of the game.

House of the Dragon was a really great return to form for GoT shows, but A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms has got the magic.

Last March, ahead of the Cooper Flagg draft, the Toronto Raptors routinely benched All-Star Scottie Barnes in clutch situations. They sat regularly starters for DNP-Rest. They were not punished or fined. Today, Adam Silver dropped the hammer on the Utah Jazz for the same thing.

The NBA announces a $500,000 fine for Utah for “conduct detrimental to the league” and a $100,000 fine for Indiana for violating the league’s Player Participation Policy:

@hansenjames Technically having the 11th best odds (and trading our best player to the lakers) would have been the move last year 😜

But it did guarantee us the 5th pick and it got us Ace Bailey. We don’t get him if we didn’t tank. Tanking worked
Russ@Rustyzj86

@hansenjames I'm just asking so the people in back can hear we tanked last season had the worst record where did we draft what pick did we get... Tanking doesn't guarantee you the best player
