@CanyonDriver Mixed bag for sure. Jaxson, Dwight, Smart, Monk were bright spots at those low levels. Laravia was also decent. Was rondo also MLE type money? But lots of misses outside of those guys in the past 5 years or so.
@TheNoLookPass Going to my first Sparks game ever on Sunday. Anything I should be watching for? Any players to watch besides Plum and Brink and Hamby? thanks in advance if you have time!
@forumbluegold Oof. This doesn’t leave me optimistic, D. Lakers are at their best when they pressure the rim. Even Luka. They are better as an inside out attack. Not really geared to be an outside in team. Maybe the Only good team that attacks outside in is Boston. 🤮
Let me trace the timeline here because nobody's connecting it.
Step 1: Scrape the entire internet. Every book, every article, every conversation, every piece of art, every forum post. Do it without asking. Do it without paying.
Step 2: Train a model on all of it. Call it "artificial intelligence."
Step 3: Go to BlackRock's Infrastructure Summit and announce: "We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter."
Step 3 is where you sell people's own knowledge back to them. On a meter.
They took the collective output of human thought, compressed it into a model, and now they want to charge you by the token to access a version of what you and everyone you know already created.
One Reddit user put it perfectly: "They stole all this data from us, the people, our life's work, creativity, art, by devouring the internet and blowing through all copyright laws. Now they want to sell it back to us in the form of a utility."
Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies.
That's the metered intelligence business model.
And they're pitching it to infrastructure investors as though they invented water.
@CanyonDriver Mike, is shooting shots the way pros get better at shooting in games? Do you need to practice specific types of shots? Or do you need a coach to help correct form? All of the above?
@philfanacc@RyanOppenheimer This is just not true. All sports change in the playoffs. They become way more tactical and players play harder and stars play more minutes.
@topher967@_Dan_Castell we don't all have to be f1 fans the same way. I've been watching f1 for nearly 20 years. I've never watched a full F2 race. Being an F1 fan does not mean I have to be an F2 fan. If that's what it means to you, cool. I love that for you.
was just saying this to the homie. If refs are gonna allow all that banging, calling these ticky tack touch fouls makes no sense. Defender isn't entitled to his space at any point in these post-ups. in the backdown or the shot attempt.
if şengün is going to be allowed to throw out his off arm/elbow to this degree on his post ups, he's going to get to his spots and/or draw a foul pretty much every time against a lot of defenders.
@Tim_NBA Nothing egregious but I'm annoyed by the reffing tonight. Feels like Lakers are getting called for fouls that are legit but rockets are not getting called for fouls.
