He really does seem to genuinely care about this particular issue

Really unfortunate that the Raiders don’t play the Dolphins this year

The Next Gen chart also has fewer over-the-middle targets—would be curious if that was intentional or just a product of how coverage played out

After cursing at clumsy paste(...) constructs for years, why am I only now learning about the glue package? https://glue.tidyverse.org/

Byebye

paste("Iteration: ", iter, ", value: ", val, sep="")

Hello

glue("Iteration: {iter}, value: {val}")

TWS. I’ve never been a member of ESA because it’s never been clear to me that there’s any benefit

On this Giving Tuesday, please help our professional society that gives nothing to students and charges the highest annual dues among peer societies by donating so we can spend more money on lobbyists to continue to fail on our signature policy initiatives

I would like the Packers to move a bit faster on offense, but so many Packers takes would be different right now if defensive turnover luck was a bit better

University education as we know it is over

Take-home assignments are dead, "one prompt away" is one prompt too far, and what we should do next

Also, his offenses consistently get better as the season goes on, and I expect that to happen again this year. Could very well happen with the defense too as Hafley figures out how to maximize 1

Jesse Alston @jessealston.bsky.social · 16d

I think MLF is a top 5 playcaller and offensive designer in the NFL. This season has been frustrating, but imo that’s mostly because of the nagging injuries and the first two games setting expectations so high. He gets too cute sometimes but so do Reid, Shanahan, and McVay

Jesse Alston @jessealston.bsky.social · 16d

It could be fun to watch on all-22 but if GB loses 20-19 because Bo Melton gets tackled for loss on a beautifully designed orbit motion screen on a pivotal 4th-and-1, the takes will be hotter than the sun

I’ve been thinking about this and have decided Chris Brooks is going to play 40 snaps against the Eagles and you are going to become the joker

I don’t get this trade for the Titans—they would probably get a 2027 4 or 5 comp pick if they just let him walk? Unless they plan to spend big in FA, which has also not worked for them…

Only necessary qualifications are typically a love for animals, willingness to work for very little pay, and ability to tolerate truly insane coworkers and bosses
