I chose to download a speedometer app to check how fast this train is going. It was a bit amusing to feel it vibrate like crazy as it calculated speeds between 110-130.

Welcome! You're like Gandalf - not late, not early, exactly when you need to arrive. I hope you find the game as fun as I have.

This is the debate I've had with colleagues at times. The tests are the last thing I'd ever want an AI agent to write for me, and the first thing I'd want to write around anything the AI has written.

Is that the game I think it is? Should I watch for leviathans?

So am I understanding correctly, then, that this suspension being announced is evidence that PRO has come to that conclusion? Or is there another mechanism being used and PRO is backing the center referee?

From what I remember of horror movies in the 1980s, there's a non-zero chance that the kids saw more nudity in the movie itself than in the ad...

I remember this prep. I'm glad you're this close to the end of it!

I resemble some of those other criteria (no visible tattoos), and have never really been approached cold in that way. One stranger did start talking to me after we both experienced a Shared Bus Thing, though - we ended up being friends after talking more.

Do you know if the remote folks will at least get more than just the outgoing broadcast feed from which they can base their commentary? Some of the small things I listen to in commentary are when they let me know when players are warming up, getting ready to check in, etc - stuff I can't see myself.

Well said, and thank you

Really looking forward to Heineken Rivalry Week this year...

The team has had players from Norway, Sweden, Finland, Iceland, and Denmark at this point. I don't think there's been one from the Faroe Islands?

Heh... Google's commitment to this technology may never cease to amaze me.

Yes! I was just coming back to post this.

I also see a number of folks around me turning to search platforms which intentionally don't include tools like this, so perhaps there's enough of a market left for traditional search tools that spawn referral traffic at past rates? Wishful thinking?
comment in response to
post
I agree that referral traffic may be a thing of the past. However, I'm somewhat encouraged that the LLMs I've seen are including cites in their answers - so perhaps referrals may not disappear entirely. Maybe I'm naive.

Looks great! (which I can only say because it works at all :-) )

This advice that you and so many other lawyers are saying makes a lot of sense to me, but I have one question about this sequence.
I don't currently have a lawyer. If the cops provide me with a lawyer, how do I trust the lawyer? If cops can legally lie to me, how do I trust who they present?

The transit infrastructure makes things a little better, at least on the Boston end. Fans who live at all local to the team would need to ride Amtrak to get to Boston, though - the commuter rail only extends into Rhode Island.

I'm not a follower of the WNBA - are Suns fans upset at losing a home game against Indiana like this? Their home arena is 90-100 miles away from Boston, so I'd find it plausible that the same reaction exists there.
comment in response to
post
I do find it interesting, personally, to see this news and it's reaction on the same day that I hear several work friends getting excited by the chance to see the CT Sun play a game next year (against Indiana and Caitlin Clark) at Boston's TD Garden - in what feels like a very similar dynamic.

This is part of the reason why I appreciate hearing my mother talk about not being able to open a bank account in her name, and remembering how the conversation has changed around people being gay from the 1980s to now. Change has been happening continuously because people worked for it.

Hear, hear. Especially the bit about "when the moral arc bends, it's because we bent it."
For me, it feels similar to the "don't comply ahead of time" advice. We should understand that work is needed, but giving up before the fight starts does no one any good.

Damn, I can't imagine the emotions of realizing that you've been given a CFO's phone number for this sort of issue. I'm glad you got it all worked out, but wow.

One of the things that I really appreciate about sports is its ability to show me something wonderful, in a context that prepares me to appreciate it. Bergkamp's controlling touch versus Argentina in 1998, Amundsen's pass to Yeboah in MLS Cup 2023, etc.
This spits on those moments.

So far, they have been helpful as a sounding board, like an interactive rubber duck. They aren't a lever to magnify my external effort, but a calibration opportunity to adjust my internal work.

I agree with all of you, I think. Knowing how to approach these tools, what benefit can be gained from using them, and where they just end up making more work for me / leading me down a bad path, is important knowledge to have.
Just like any new technology, really.

I do, but not particularly deeply. I don't have any allegiance to either team, but either would have a silver lining if they won.
Maybe slightly prefer New York, since those supporters are long suffering, and that way Columbus went out to the champions.

I'm not sure that _this_ pushes me away, but I understand if it does for others.
Personally, I've followed soccer for too long to give up on it because someone I don't support parachutes into a big event.
