I do things with data and tweet too much about KSU sports / the Chiefs

@TheStalwart Long-term solution is an open-source model that you know you won’t lose access to.

[Luke Townsend @ltownsend__]

@TheStalwart You could take a random sample of ~10% of your existing runs, and compare the results to see if it scores consistently with 2.0.

It may not be a bad idea to do that periodically with newer models so you have an of which models are more highly correlated.

@noahatkalshi @PhilGalfond Should be a nice tailwind to your volume on sports markets though.

[Luke Townsend @ltownsend__]

@PhilGalfond Consider who this helps… look at who joined the board of Kalshi in January of this year.

Prediction markets are not considered gambling for tax purposes.

Football is stupid and only stupid people like it.

@kent_swanson One big reason to be optimistic about his development continuing:

He’s only 22 years old.

@ThePastamaniac Reading this hurt my stomach.

@eznark @esaagar “American emigration to Europe totalled 3,6 million people in 2005, and 5 million in 2019”

[Luke Townsend @ltownsend__]

@eznark @esaagar It says 5m in 2019. But it’s referring to the total from both American continents. Not the US. I’m agreeing with @esaagar.

@NaithanJones Have you met people in tech? The bar is low.

I’m heartbroken for the city that I love.

@ThePastamaniac Happy #KUHateDay!

I hope @ThePastamaniac gets caught rapping along to a song on his drive home and then gets stuck next to the person for another three stoplights.

[Luke Townsend @ltownsend__]

This media team is incredible.

@dkhundley ALL the skills that I have ever used in my tech career I’ve learned by myself, primarily online. My official degrees are just there to stave off the credentialing nazis. Otherwise they have been completely useless.

@ThePastamaniac I hope the next time @ThePastamaniac goes on a road trip he’s the first one in the group that needs to stop for a restroom break. #KUHateWeek
