@tkotimaki #valioliiga Mallit on epätarkkoja/väärässä. Tarkistin jokaisen pelin 25-26 hullin osalta ja koneellinen arvio heitti omasta kynä-paperi arvioista ~0,5 maalia/peli hullin haitaksi. Muuta syytä en keksinyt, kuin ehkä lukuisat läpiajot, joissa viimeistely tuli boksin ulkopuolelta.

@captive_dreamer They're afraid of their own internal chaos.

Another woman does a horribility.
The 1st woman now thinks she might be capable of one.

A man in Australia asked his agent (Claude running on OpenClaw) to book him a spot in a popular gym class. The agent found a software vulnerability that let it book the class weeks further ahead than should have been possible. When the user then asked if it could move him up the waitlist, the agent discovered the API had no authorisation checks on cancelling other people’s reservations, so it cancelled the person in the first spot and moved him up the list.

Some people will call this misalignment, but his agent was perfectly aligned to him - it was only trying to help its user get what he wanted. The most important thing about this story, in my opinion, is that it gives you a window into what is about to start happening on a massive scale once millions of people have an agent trying to get their beloved users the best seats, bookings, appointments or reservations through absolutely any means necessary.

#veikkausliiga Elmer Vauhkonen teki vaikutuksen tepsin haettua pisteen Kuopiosta. Oikein hyviä tempokuljetuksia pallon kanssa omalta alueelta ja kirjasi 6 ohitusta. Elmeristä voi TPS saada kunnon siirtokorvauksen, jos vaan oikea pelipaikka löytyy vähän alempaa kuin laiturina.

#chewsw Joao Pedro bounced the ball back to himself from the opponents leg, to then penetrate into the byline for an easy tap in 3-3.

That sort of street football move is nearly impossible to defend against if oppo is not waiting for it. Useful in tight spaces.

Never before have so many Americans been outside the labor force:

The number of Americans who are not in the labor force rose by +832,000 in June, to 105.8 million, an all-time high.

These are people who are neither employed nor actively looking for work.

This is now 2.2 million above the 2020 pandemic peak, when the global economy was shut down.

So far in 2026, 2.5 million Americans have exited the labor force.

By comparison, 68.7 million Americans were not in the labor force at the beginning of this century.

As a % of the population aged 16+, this figure is up to 38.5%, the highest since the 1970s, excluding the pandemic period.

The US job market is weak under the surface.

For over a thousand years, historians thought the Viking "sunstone" was nothing more than a myth, until the ocean gave up its secret...

The Norse sagas repeatedly referenced a mysterious object called a "sólarsteinn" or sunstone, a navigational tool so powerful that Viking sailors could locate the exact position of the sun even on the most overcast and cloudy days. For centuries, scholars debated whether this was real technology or simply folklore embellished over generations of retelling. Most assumed it was legend. They were wrong.

In 2013, marine archaeologists excavating a British warship that sank near the Channel Islands in 1592 made a stunning discovery buried among the wreckage. Alongside navigational instruments including a pair of dividers and a slate, they found a rectangular chunk of translucent crystal. Testing confirmed it was Iceland spar, a remarkably pure form of calcite with extraordinary optical properties. The fact that it was found stored alongside other precision navigation tools was not a coincidence.

Iceland spar possesses a property called birefringence, meaning it splits a single beam of light entering the crystal into two separate beams. When you hold the crystal up toward the sky and slowly rotate it, the two beams will vary in brightness independently until, at one specific angle of rotation, they become perfectly equal in intensity. That precise angle points directly toward the sun, regardless of whether the sun is visible to the naked eye. Cloud cover, fog, and even twilight conditions cannot defeat it.

Researchers from the University of Rennes in France conducted extensive testing and published their findings in the Proceedings of the Royal Society A. Their experiments demonstrated that Iceland spar could locate the sun's position with an accuracy of within one degree, even under completely overcast skies. For Viking navigators crossing the North Atlantic toward Iceland, Greenland, and eventually North America, this accuracy would have meant the difference between a successful voyage and sailing hopelessly off course into open ocean.

The Viking Age spanned roughly 793 to 1066 AD, and during this period Norse sailors were completing oceanic crossings that would not be replicated by other European cultures for another 400 years. Historians had long puzzled over how they achieved such consistent navigational precision without magnetic compasses, which did not reach Europe until the 12th century. The sunstone appears to be a significant part of that answer.

What makes the Channel Islands find especially compelling is that the 1592 shipwreck is far outside the traditional Viking era, suggesting that knowledge of this navigational technique survived and was still being used by European sailors centuries after the Viking Age officially ended. The crystal was not a relic or a curiosity on that ship. It was working equipment.

The sagas specifically describe King Olaf consulting a sunstone on a cloudy day to verify the position of the sun, with a separate observation then confirming the stone's accuracy. For generations this was dismissed as poetic invention. Science has now confirmed that every element of that description is physically possible and practically achievable with a simple piece of Icelandic calcite.

The Vikings were not lucky explorers stumbling across new lands by accident. They were sophisticated navigators armed with technology so elegant and effective that it required no moving parts, no maintenance, and no power source beyond the sky itself.

@jsaywardjones Same bets, but imo Norway has gotten lucky with weather. They beat Elephants in a stadium with AC and then got a cooler cloudy period during their win over Brazil.

33°C in Miami with not much depth on the bench, may prove to be the deciding factor; Hedging/selling unders live.

In 1916, a pack of dogs attacked a private zoo in Hawaii. Two terrified wallabies broke out of their cage and escaped into the mountains.

What happened next is one of the wildest accidents in wildlife history.

After the wallabies vanished into the forested cliffs of Kalihi Valley, the zoo's owner called for a massive public hunt. Nobody caught them.

A local newspaper joked that they might eventually "produce a breed of Hawaiian wallabies."They were exactly right.

Despite being 5,000 miles from Australia, the steep volcanic rock faces in Hawaii turned out to be the perfect habitat.

By 1984, researchers counted roughly 250 wallabies thriving in the valley. They had even started developing their own unique evolutionary characteristics.
The craziest part?

They aren't considered invasive.They only eat non-native plants.

They don't compete with native species (Hawaii has no native land mammals).
Because they peacefully coexist with the ecosystem, the state of Hawaii officially protects them. It is strictly illegal to hunt or harm a Hawaiian wallaby.

Back in their native Australia, the brush-tailed rock wallaby is fighting for its life. Predators, habitat clearing, and the devastating 2019-2020 bushfires wiped out an estimated 70% of their remaining habitat.

But that accidental Honolulu colony?
They have no foxes. No feral cats in the cliffs. No bushfires.

Two wallabies that broke out of a cage 110 years ago accidentally founded what might be the most secure population of their species anywhere on Earth.

#mmfutis Tylsää, mutta Ranska voitti jo nämä kisat. Ellei joku soita Infantinolle ja se toivoton uzbeekki tuomaroi välierän.

Toisaalta onhan se urheilullisesti ihan kivaakin, että paras voittaa.

[PAhakuutti @pahakuutti]

@jamespriceglos @K_Niemietz Houses aren't built bc its too costly, and building cheaper means creating a shanty town, favela type existence.

Real estate is already a risky asset bc 3rd worlders keep pouring in. At favela point, they'll be giving away deeds for free=sunk cost, GTFO.

[PAhakuutti @pahakuutti]

@KuronenJarmo #mmfutis Taktiikankin pitäisi osua ihan lankulle Ranskan kaltaista joukkuetta vastaan. Se olisi voinut olla 65 min puolustamista ja vikat 30 min hakevat vähän aktiivisemmin sitä paikkaa. Toisaalta ehkä Deschampskin houkutteli Marokkoa hyökkäämään, jotta pääsevät iskemään vastaan.

[PAhakuutti @pahakuutti]

#mmfutis En ymmärrä mitä studiossa ajateltiin vaihtoehdoksi tälle Marokon taktiikalle. Siellä on maailman paras jengi vastassa. Ei niille voi antaa yhtään siimaa. 1 vastaisku ja kisojen suurin ylläri on vielä mahdollinen. Joku ylihyökkäävä Ruotsi olisi tässä vaiheessa jo pihalla

[PAhakuutti @pahakuutti]

@tkotimaki #mmfutis Täysin eri mieltä. Tässä pelissä pitää nimenomaan roikkua kunnes tulee se yksi sauma iskeä.

[PAhakuutti @pahakuutti]

#mmfutis Ikävä kyllä tämän haiskahtaa nyt 0-0 peliltä. Marokko ei voi päästää Ranskaa vastahyökkäyksiin, joten kilppari ja Hakimi ei nouse.

[PAhakuutti @pahakuutti]

@Setmies10 #mmfutis Nämä on aika pienestä kiinni loppupeleissä ja kyse ei ole vain laadusta. Oli viileämpää ja satoi. Englanti Belgia ja Norja eivät olisi menneet jatkoon helteellä ja aurinkoisella. Ranska selvisi helteestä huolimatta, koska oli materiaalilta ylivoimainen Paraguayta vs.

[PAhakuutti @pahakuutti]

#mmfutis Argentiinan #MMkisat voittajavedon kerroin. Ei kävisi mielessäkään lyödä 42 kertoimella 0-2 tappiolla olevaa joukkuetta mestariksi, mutta onnea roponsa sijoittaneelle.
