@fathersreforged My homeschooling wife and I cleaned up at trivia last week. Having a homeschool mom on your trivia team is like printing money and gift cards.

@YellowTuxJesse, you’re probably already working on this… but I’d love to know if anyone is working on a Banana Ball collegiate league.

This is the first time such a term has been used.

@PredictableShow Great show! Take 2 on the prediction game was far better than take 1. Love the show and your insight.

I’m genuinely frustrated with where AI is heading. We have the computational power to cure cancer, solve real medical problems, unlock fundamental physics. Instead we’re building sex chatbots and engagement machines. And the reason? The people steering this ship can commercialize, but they can’t code. Sam Altman can barely write a line. Sundar Pichai’s a materials scientist and MBA. They lack a fundamental understanding.

If you graduated high school in the 1990s, listened to grunge music, and can remember where you were when the OJ Simpson verdict was read, I have just one question for you: How are you doing after that Outlander finale?
