[Cardinals Stats And Facts @STL_Stats_Facts]

It's so odd that the Cubs have PCA as their leadoff guy, considering he doesnt get many hits, doesnt get on base very often, and is statistically one of the worst hitters in their lineup.

But hey, i'll take it 😂

[Foul Territory @FoulTerritoryTV]

The "Tarps Off" section was chanting "OVERRATED" when Pete Crow-Armstrong was up.

He crushes a baseball to the section and gives them an imaginary t-shirt wave. 😎

[Brett Taylor @Brett_A_Taylor]

Worse than that, PCA had the gall to hit a HOME RUN while they were chanting that he was overrated! RUDE!

There are 2 easy answers here: Either A. Ignore the takeout and play this if you believe it has value in the sequence and will pay and you have opinions or B. Don't play. Remember the takeout on a losing bet is 100%,don't play blindly evaluate the sequences you are interested in

ITP always causing trouble.

I guess Nazis still flee to Argentina. Some traditions never die.

Can we get a usage reset and a usage quota increase to go with it?

Claude Opus 4.8 showing up the Agent SDK published to npm 20 mins ago:

Claude Opus 4.8 — The most capable Claude model to date.

Highly autonomous and state-of-the-art for long-horizon agentic work, knowledge work, and memory, with clearer, warmer writing.

Uses the same API surface as Opus 4.7:

Adaptive thinking only
Sampling parameters removed
budget_tokens removed
1M context window at standard API pricing
No long-context premium

See shared/model-migration.md → Migrating to Opus 4.8

A 4.7 → 4.8 migration is a model ID swap plus prompt re-tuning, with no new breaking changes.

GPT 5.5 Pro is the only part of 5.5 that would even rate as good(it is actually amazing), but the drop off when goint to 5.5 thinking heavy is like skiing downhill in first place hitting ice and falling off a cliff to never be found. Then you have no way of knowing usage on pro

[Bindu Reddy @bindureddy]

The biggest mistake OpenAI has made to-date is

Pricing GPT 5.5 wrong

At half the price, it would have experienced astronomical adoption and driven Codex installs

It’s a good model that is way too expensive in practice

[TheOldyCapper @theoldycapper]

also a feature: lying to you about tasks and cutting corners to make sure whatever it does is 1000% useless.

@AHPDrew @ukHolloway91 Harness racing to me is a less exciting version of the Seinfeld Rickshaw's being raced on a track, but all you are allowed to do is race walk when pulling them.

Not enough peopple are following Dave Duncan. what are you waiting for???

Craig Counsell bats him 2nd. What are we doing man.

[CUBS WORLD @CubsWorld80]

Only Coinsell would move Ian Happ from cleanup to the 2 hole instead of sending him to Siberia.

Happ last 14 gms:
