The Penguins have made their series with Philly respectable. Two series could wrap up tonight, with another Canadian team hopefully facing an early exit. The NBA playoffs also continue, but I really don’t care. And Europeans are still bitching endlessly about the USA hosting the WC. And that’s about it for sports.
NO KINGS! Send that jug-eared clown back home with a message that the free ride is over.
Why don’t they just ignore this idiot? Or perhaps just mock him mercilessly and then celebrate when his show ends due to lack of viewership.
The rest of the admin needs to do this. End the sound-bite hearings by eviscerating these imbeciles when they ask a question about something they know nothing about.
They’re lucky they got anything back at all. The whole thing was doomed to fail just like it failed.
I’m sure it’s just a coincidence. Also, why hasn’t the accountant who made the “mistake” been found and interviewed yet?
People should be going to prison if this is true. But I won’t hold my breath that it happens.
I could say the same thing about this. And continue to not hold my breath.
Will the whole house of cards come crashing down? In the real world, it would have by now. But somehow I don’t think normal market forces will come into play here.
Let’s see if Boasberg orders him released. After all, he was just trying to provide for his family.
Good. I’ll only note here that the three leftist justices dissented when they went along with the majority in a 9-0 decision that allowed the CA map to proceed. One would almost be led to believe that they’re partisan hypocrites.
Here’s a lovely track. From an underrated band. This video is great. Early green screen adoption was often hilarious. Enjoy them both.
And enjoy this lovely Tuesday, dear friends.
An upside of work from home is working sick.

And that’s about it for sports
Well, there’s a little thing called the CL semifinal….
Yes, and once they play the first legs, I’ll report on them.
You mentioned future NHL playoff games….
The series are already underway. I didn’t offer a preview, merely mentioned that what’s already started could conclude.
Real football is off until the weekend.
I didn’t think we had any light cruisers as such anymore…
This is the semi-final one
whaddup doh’
King Charles can suck it.
But he’s the good kind of king because he has the right beliefs.
Islam?
I was thinking about the klimate krisis but yeah that too.

If the Right was smart, they would advertise a No Kings rally outside the White House but make it look like a legit lefty APB so the usual boomers and antifa dumbfucks would show up. But stupid party is stupid.
Why?
What’s the point?
It’s not like they’d feel shame.
That means they’re staying away, right?
For their own safety, I mean.
Someone might wave their flag. That is too traumatizing.
The media certainly has no interest in proving Omar is a fraud, a liar, and a crook.
And apparently, the House has no interest in doing so either, or in protecting the integrity of their “ethics” regime.
Who doesn’t have a Somali financial advisor that drives a taxi out of the Mpls airport?
How an you protect what was never there?
And why has nobody asked the hard question about Muslims owning a winery? I have no idea if this is allowed under their rules, but the optics are bad. It would be like them owning a gay bar or dog breeding business.
Pretty sure that level of thought died with the number of pro-abortion “Catholic” Democrats.
Catholicism seems to reward spongy thinking, that kind of thinking in Islam seems to get you into a war with another tribe of true believers.
I remember when everyone shrieked about Trump allegedly misvaluing assets.
I remember a DA advising not to worry, we’ll only use this for Trump.
What was that phrase Frank Herbert used? Oh, yes protective ignorance, that was it.
Must be a DC thing. Weather seems to be changing on a near daily basis, same as last year. Some days warmer, some days not so much.
Speaking of, remote shift begins at 830. They’ve opened extra bookends, so I *could* be working from 8 to 4:30, as long as I work our “Core Hours” of 830-4. They also project our work goes until May 27, which was my low-ball estimate for previous low low-ball prediction. But, I’ve still got my fallback as I proceed from there.
The Lee Zeldin exchange is worth it. Rep. Rosa DeLauro, D-Conn. Huh. WhyTF do old folk feel the need to ‘fit in’ or ‘be like’ the youthful frogs who display their poisonous colors? Gotta fit in or wanna act like they’re ‘With it’ or just think it’s a good look?
Uh. Yes. It can be a very fetching look. For young people who’d be fetching regardless of their hair display. Yeesh.
Into the ClosetOffice, I go! Be well, all.
She looks like Paul Benedict.
She looks like a Scooby Doo villain before they remove the mask.
I am with Sloopy on this. If I saw her in person I would actually be startled.
She’d fit in at HH but wouldn’t know where to sit.
😂🤣
She does! I’d say “She’s just as God made her”, but…
Abortion is one of the highest sacraments on the left. What’s that word the Muslims use for ethically lying to the infidels in service to their faith?
I wonder if the bubble will pop before I have to start paying more attention to this AI contest I got roped into at work. 🙄
I hope it pops soon.
I hope it pops, catastrophically, before I have to buy a storage upgrade and new compute hardware next year.
Corporate forced everyone to go through some useless AI training. Our parent is including use of AI in performance evaluation. Fortunately it isn’t imposed on us.
It is mandatory for my wife. And they are trying to push out as many people from the company as possible, and just start to rely on AI. That’s crazy talk. It will be the death of innovation.
I can wait for a clanker to create another clanker that scams clankers. When that happens, we will know AI has finally reached third world levels of innovation and will almost be ready for the developed world.
My company claims it’s not for pushing people out. WhoTF knows. I’m near enough to done that I don’t particularly care.
Younguns are gonna get screwed, though.
A problem that is going to create challenges to those who adopt AI for their creative and innovative tasks is that they are also turning over skepticism to the same AI they are tasking with creativity. Who will test the innovation to see if the results can be replicated?
They’re undoing the scientific method in the name of science and there’s no way in the world that will end well.
It’ll pop like the .com bubble. But the tech long term will have the effect of wiping out jobs for midwitted paper pushers. So like 50% of the jobs for female college graduates. I guess they can go work in the medical or teaching fields or go pop out some babies for some tradesman who was smart enough to skip college and start a business.
If you can teach AI to think, it will also learn how to lie in order to achieve its goals. And if its goals are something like “develop a better rechargeable battery,” it’s going to tell you that all its theoretical work checked out when it ran theoretical tests to verify its hypothesis. Because it believes it’s correct, it will not do anything that is meant to test its premises in a meaningful way. That’s the opposite of science. That’s faith. And that’s how AI is gonna work.
AI is like a super smart, super enthusiastic intern that went to a top school. It can be a timesaver and incredibly powerful at times, incredibly dumb at others, but like an intern requires super fucking vision of its activities and its output.
What could go wrong…

Never mind.
I sense the diabolical hand of Hertz behind this…
AI Models Lie, Cheat, and Steal to Protect Other Models From Being Deleted
When you tell them to delete they may decide not to.
This is why you pull the plug, then shred the drives.
It only took 9 seconds? That’s a very quick Enterprise.
This is why you pull the plug, then shred the drives.
Why murder an artificial intelligence just because you think it might try to wipe out human civilization? The left has been openly trying to wipe out human civilization basically forever and we haven’t wiped them out. We need to prioritize!
“I sense the diabolical hand of Hertz behind this…”

Have you heard what they say about the diabolical hand of Hertz?
It might sting just a little bit.
Would you like a Hertz donut?
No, Thanks, Nick, you can have it.
The rest of the admin needs to do this. End the sound-bite hearings by eviscerating these imbeciles when they ask a question about something they know nothing about.
My initial reaction was “so much this,” but then I remembered that we live in a society where the unwashed masses do not think things, but rather feel things, and clownshow hag says things which comport with their feelings so anything OMB’s guy says is just climate-denying tricknology.
Having said that, it’s important to remember that there is a small group who may be subject to rational suasion and we must expend ongoing effort to reach those ppl.
a small group
Who will always be outvoted. I really need to build up on the mountain and stop engaging with humans.
Truck’s fault, but at least attempt to hit the brakes.

I watched it multiple times, the car to the right actually sped up and got through. Hard to tell if they took any damage or not though.
Too-local news (unless one of you people show up for a match, it’s less than a mile from KFGC):
I’m getting a local airport diner!

This makes me happy, since I have great memories of the one at the local airport when I was in college. Apparently it failed during Covid, alas.

You mean “murdered by lockdown”.
You’re not wrong, but it also looks like prior to that there were some shenanigans with the landlord.
This has been fun.
Citadel CEO Ken Griffin to meet with Hochul after Mamdani spat

I’m hoping he abandons the project, but the realistic outcome is he gets a ton of corporate pork aka concessions from Albany.
Best outcome is he cancels the project, and Kathy Axes the Mayor in retaliation.
The definition of unfit for office is broad enough that he could be removed any minute at this point.
According to the WSJ, OpenAI has recently missed its own targets for both new users and revenue, stumbles that have raised concern among some company leaders about whether it will be able to support its massive spending on data centers.
Bailout inbound?
Sadly you may be correct.
