Hockey fan, figure skating fan, and I follow legal and media news. I like to help people find the information they seek. Maybe that's why I work in a library.

The boards of Saudi football clubs are bracing themselves ahead of an expected wave of contractual legal disputes over the payment of players' wages after the kingdom's sovereign wealth fund drastically cut their budgets.

Many English-speaking people in the U.S. are watching broadcasts of World Cup matches in Spanish on Telemundo, even though they have little idea — or in some cases, no idea — what the announcers are saying. https://t.co/bPHy6j10IP

Here's my full interview with CNBC, covering my bear case against generative AI, OpenAI's questionable finances, AI's lack of ROI, and how all of this is a symptom of the tech industry running out of hypergrowth ideas.

It's great to see the mainstream media discussing this.

Lionel Messi's eyes are often off the ball during play. A sports psychologist suggests that world-class soccer players know when to focus intently and when to let their minds wander:

On June 19, 1865, U.S. Major General Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas and issued General Order No. 3, informing the people of Texas that all enslaved people were now free. Juneteenth commemorates this pivotal moment in the history of Texas and the United States.

“The people of Texas are informed that, in accordance with a proclamation from the Executive of the United States, all slaves are free. This involves an absolute equality of personal rights and rights of property between former masters and slaves, and the connection heretofore existing between them becomes that between employer and hired labor. The freedmen are advised to remain quietly at their present homes and work for wages. They are informed that they will not be allowed to collect at military posts and that they will not be supported in idleness either there or elsewhere.”
