Hundreds of New York Knicks fans flooded city streets as the Empire State Building lit up orange and blue after the Knicks beat the San Antonio Spurs 105-95 in Game 1 of NBA Finals.
Game 2 heads to San Antonio on Friday night.

I made a website where you can watch people watch the Knicks!!
GardenCam shows a live feed of the three publicly available traffic cameras around MSG, where watch parties are being held every game night during the finals.
Gonna sync them up with clip highlights later too :)
@TheStalwart Investment banking is a catch all term that often is used instead of investing, banking, finance, economics, markets, etc
IB as a specific job is an important component of those other topics, but it isn’t everything
Today is for everybody who remembers this inexplicable Doug E. Fresh cover of “Country Roads” that subbed in “New York City” for “West Virginia” and played at least once during every Knicks game from 2004 to 2008
“From a governance standpoint, we seem to be treated like any other neighborhood — like Cobble Hill or Boerum Hill — and we are actually more like Times Square,” said Jamel Talbi, a 15-year Dumbo resident and condo-board president. “We are at our wits’ end.” Talbi should know; he lives on the cobblestoned stretch of Washington Street leading from the Brooklyn Bridge pedestrian walkway to the waterfront that is said to be the most Instagrammed location on the planet.
Talbi launched an 11-page online petition, directed at elected officials and signed by nearly 400 Dumbo residents, which includes a list of demands one might expect from folks living in a neighborhood so dense with tourists that it’s sometimes hard to push a stroller down the sidewalk: restrictions on street vendors and tour buses, for instance, and a crowd-management plan.
While the petition is just the latest in an ongoing crusade to tame the streets, tension in the neighborhood is building up, and for good reason. “People are anxious because there is a World Cup village under the Brooklyn Bridge this summer, the 250th anniversary of our independence, the Macy’s fireworks, and the tall ships coming,” said Lincoln Restler, the city councilperson representing the area. “They look ahead to June and July and say, ‘Holy shit! This is going to get a lot worse!’”
Some residents are now taking cues from global anti-tourism tactics — such as Amsterdam’s “Stay Away” campaign discouraging British tourists from traveling to the city to party and Seoul’s visiting hours for Bukchon Hanok Village — and suggesting measures far beyond the usual.

Shrey spelling 32 words in 90 seconds to win the Spelling Bee is the new greatest athletic accomplishment of 2026. I don’t even know how he said the letters that fast. Got a “Holy Mackerel” out of

Travis Kalanick insisted everyone at Uber write SQL. The instinct was right – the technology just wasn't ready. Now it is."

@wolfejosh Hi Josh - would love to connect about an event coming up for the Clarke School for Hearing and Speech, which supports deaf and hard of hearing children in NYC. Up your alley and Fotell's
“Every major incumbent has tried a marketplace at some point….
The standard explanation for the first failure mode is incentive misalignment…
The deeper issue is that financial data has structural characteristics that resist marketplace intermediation regardless of who runs the platform…” - @didier_lopes

“So much of talent matching is translation”
Many people looking for jobs focus on what they want to do, how they want to grow
When they need to learn about what companies are looking for
And framing themselves as the best match for those needs
job hunting has confirmed to me that careers are mostly a search problem
a lot of people who would be brilliant at growth, brand, or culture roles do not yet have the market language for what they know
they have taste, cultural attunement, emotional intelligence, pattern recognition, internet fluency, proximity to the zeitgeist
but they may not call any of this “brand” or “growth strategy”
the hardest part of finding the right work is often learning what the market calls the thing you already know how to do
meanwhile, the companies that most need these people often do not know how to search for them either. they feel the gap before they can name the role
so much of talent matching is translation
the right people and the right companies are often looking for each other, they just do not yet have the language to recognise one another
“Most organizations underestimate how much of AI transformation has very little to do with the technology itself.
The real complexity sits in the interaction between:
•people
•processes
•operational governance”
Earlier this year I was getting frustrated with Claude's charts, fed this book to claude and had it generate a Tufte skill. Instantly got simpler/more beautiful visualizations.
