Okay he's still not in CP3/KD territory, but he's good enough at midrange shots (but not long 2s) that an open 12 footer is probably a better idea than a contested 3. KD and CP3 have somewhat better 3 point shooting so the calculus is a bit mixed. (also odd that SGA's 10-16 FG% > 3-10 FG%)

New steel & aluminum tariffs put tariffs on the non-metal content in derivatives, so if you have a $1k bicycle that’s 40% aluminum you pay a 50% tariff on $400 then a 10% tariff on $600—Unless the bike is from 🇬🇧🇨🇦🇨🇳🇲🇽 in which case the numbers are completely different. Insanity.

I don't actually think society is cooked, but I do think graphics cards will probably just be super expensive forever going forwards which is almost as bad.

1/ Everyone wants Big Daddy Gov to protect from all the Scary Internet Things that ultimately usually equate to speech. And because this FTC is so "trustworthy" on free speech (guffaw), the authors here want it to declare whatever they don't like "unfair." www.techpolicy.press/with-congres...

When the Department of Ed misses a Congressionally mandated deadline for Condition of Ed and uploads a blank doc like a panicked undergrad. Journalists have a crucial role in holding what’s left of the Department of Ed accountable.

In some ways I think the challenge is that Millennials learned how the world works between 2006-21 and every deviation from that trend (inflation, higher interest rates, 2024 electoral shifts) gets handwaved away with the idea being that eventually we’ll revert back to some iteration of 2006-21.
