Weiss and Co. would *love* to frame the Battle for CBS as the digital disruptors vs. the ancient TV people.

It's not. Weiss is busy changing anchors and booking the Secretary of War.

Oh no, the consequences of my actions!

AI tryna tell me Rudy Gobert made a Finals

[NBA @NBA]

Saturday will mark just the second time in NBA history that the seasons’ @Kia NBA Most Valuable Player (Shai Gilgeous-Alexander) will face the season's Kia NBA Defensive Player of the Year (Victor Wembanyama) in a Game 7.

The other instance was in 2024 with 2023-24 Kia NBA MVP Nikola Jokić faced 2023-24 Kia NBA Defensive Player of the Year Rudy Gobert in Game 7 of the Western Conference Finals.

Minnesota and Gobert defeated Denver and Jokić 98-90 on May 19, 2024.

It used to be the bottom 5 teams that tanked.

People complained about Philly, so the odds were flattened, resulting in the bottom 10 teams tanking.

Now the “solution” is to incentivize teams 7~16 to tank, but hey, the bottom five teams will try harder? Yay?

Using AI to write essays doesn't help students. It makes them less capable. You can't help *whatever marginalized student population you're pretending to care about* by lowering the standards you should be helping your students to meet. That is actually harmful to them!

Every single thing must now be infinitely worse so they can justify the billions they spent on this bullshit

[Heidi N. Moore @moorehn]

Exactly! If you can't write, it's FINE. But don't use AI to pretend to be a professional writer. Find another line of work.

[Albert Breer @AlbertBreer]

I couldn’t agree more.

The 24-team playoff is an objectively awful idea. Hell, I think 12 is probably too much. Willingly killing the best regular season in sports would be insane behavior.
