@Tombrownlee @PoissonCapital I'm new to xG and trying to learn. When a player scores early in a tournament and exceeds their pre tournament xG does their updated xG moving forward go to 0?

@Sauceslatemoney @BetsniperAUS I think just saying any middle has a 20-1 chance to hit might be over simplifying things. There's more meat on the bone there than you might think.

@Sauceslatemoney @BetsniperAUS My math could be wrong but if you just factor this season with his new role seems 5/13 so ~$2.6. With the middle rating around $8, seems value.

Last night, Luka tried to hunt Steph several times by acting as a screener to force the switch.

It's just not a sustainable form of offense. Steph and Draymond are seasoned anti-switch-hunting operators. It may work once, but it most likely won't work again.

It only takes the possession after Luka scores on the Steph switch for Steph and Draymond to shut it down the following possession through scram switching and Steph hedging out.

A subtle masterclass in on-the-fly adjustments.

You can’t do anything with 125-140 IQ, Greg. 125-140 is a nightmare. Dumbest smart person alive. The world’s least impressive autist. The most mediocre former gifted kid on the planet.

@henrythe9ths AI Guide

[Henry Shi @henrythe9ths]

There's a shocking fact about AI that nobody tells you: You can catch up to the public AI research frontier in just 2 weeks. Yes, really.

I've built a $150M annual revenue startup over the last 8 years and If I were to start a company today, I’d drop everything and go all-in on AI.

But like many busy software builders, I felt lost—overwhelmed by the noisy, crowded and fast-moving modern AI landscape. And I wasn’t alone.

So I spent my entire holiday diving deep into AI research—reading 30+ papers, watching hours of lectures, analyzing trends, and catching up to the research frontier.

✨ Here’s what I learned:
- You don’t need months (or years) to catch up.
- You don’t need a PhD or decades of ML experience.
- You need fewer than 20 papers and 2 weeks to understand the major breakthroughs shaping AI today.

It's because the technology is extremely nascent and most techniques that came before are no longer relevant:
- ChatGPT is barely 2 years old and Transformers are only 7 years old.
- Most game-changing discoveries happened within the last 4 years, driven by a few breakthrough ideas, scaling laws, and efficient matrix multiplication.

The biggest secret?
Many groundbreaking AI papers with thousands of citations are surprisingly simple and applied, like adding "let's think step by step" to the prompt, or simply asking the LLM over and over again to improve its answer (Self-Refine).

I realized there are tons of founders and builders in the same boat—wanting to dive deeper into AI but unsure where to start.

I've created an essential AI Guide that helped me catch up, in just 2 weeks, to the frontier of public AI research to figure out where the next opportunities and gaps were:
- Curated list of only the most important papers
- Simple explanations of key concepts
- Clear pathway to understanding the frontier of modern AI

It’s perfect for:
- Founders expanding into AI
- Builders wanting to innovate at the frontier of AI
- Investors looking to separate the signal from the noise

(ps, I’m also teaming up with @VishalVasishth, co-founder of @obviousvc with @ev (focused on large-scale societal impact companies like Twitter, Medium, Beyond Meat), to host a small meetup to discuss what's working and needs to be solved in the AI stack in SF. Message me if you're interested)

@stockx can you please roll back the major change to the android app in the last week that removed the ability to search by brand as well as making all searches incredibly slow, its making the app near unuseable.

@_parklife1 Legit, helped me with Revolut referal. Great communicator and fast payment.

“Play Jordan at center.” Bobby Knight, to the Portland Trailblazers front office when they told him their draft need was a center

Every Human Resource and Personnel professional should hang this quote in their office. Too often I’ve seen smart people passed over for resume fit.

@ZeusODea I'd argue the opposite, the required IQ to live is dropping due to boom in SaaS. All the things mentioned have an automated service version that you can sign up to and runs on auto pilot. If something requires you to think, there's a product in waiting
