How are uber drivers always on the phone? How do they always have someone to talk to? These are the real questions

Zach Lowe’s first guest on this new podcast on The Ringer is a giant heat check

The problem with that "First they came for" poem is it makes a lot of unlikely assumptions. For example it assumes they would ever come for me

“School abolition theory” indeed does not sound like something I’m interested in ready
I’m going viral on the other app because I posted “acab includes teachers” i’m facing a lot of verbal abuse & mockery from people that haven’t read a word of school abolition theory or even watched a video or read a zine or article

Bro weren’t you one of those people
We’re only two months in, & they’re cancelling research into pediatric brain cancer. They’re deporting US kids with brain cancer. They’re putting millions at risk of malaria, TB, & polio.

I for one will never forgive or forget those who said ‘it won’t be that bad’.

Wouldn't it be nice if humanity worked towards eliminating the phrase "those without access to an education" from your vocabulary instead of financially rewarding AI companies looking to dumb down civilization?
Don't you find it a net positive for humanity that those without access to an education, now have a tool that gives them a chance to learn and compete ?

Isn't encouraging self learning a positive ?

billionaires are so stupid
If you have zero education, but learn how to ask AI models the right questions , in many jobs you will be able to outperform someone with an advanced degree, but who is unwilling to use Large Language Models.

Just takes a smartphone, curiosity to experiment and a mindset to learn.

Craziest part of this post, ranked:

1. That Jon Bois for some reason doesn't allow replies or quotes
2. That people in the replies are somehow agreeing with the guy criticizing the politician?
3. The guy criticizing the politician

Yeah, I knew Darnold was going to struggle. Rams House, baby!

Rams fan checking in here to say that was definitely a pass attempt from Stafford, great call refs

Absolutely brutal timeout from Taylor Jenkins

Some of what Ezra Klein says on his podcast is too smart for me and I’m not ashamed to say it

Really don’t like that timeout from Jason Kidd. You caught Minnesota in transition off a miss, and there is plenty of time left.

I think it’s possible we actually underrated Wemby as a draft prospect. The ceiling here is insane.

Saw Interstellar in IMAX yesterday. I think I cried about three times in that theater.

The popular hot take seems to be that Bill B at UNC is not going to work which means I'm rooting for him

Been listening a lot to the album “Turn Blue” by the Black Keys. Really good stuff.

What was Keon Johnson thinking there

I have never seen a successful challenge give a successful field goal for an immediate putback before!

Great rule change from the NBA!

The Nets are playing a matinee game which means I can actually watch it

Hooray
