@AdamSinger The two audiences differs in many aspects (e.g. income, age). The argument has merit, but I am not sure your reasoning has.

@IsaacFan1833863 If today Dan Campbell was the HC of the niners, no one would’ve said going second was better. He would’ve realized mahomes was gonna get a TD no matter what, so they’d gone for it on fourth-downs and gone for 2 pt conv

Getting the ball first with the new OT rules seems obviously better…

[Tim Ho @thetimho]

@IsaacFan1833863 True, but here are two HUGE benefits of going first:
1. You get to determine exactly what kind of a score your opponent needs (can use this to your advantage)
2. If you tie after both teams have possession, you can just kick FG and win

Been following the antitrust lawsuit against Spirit/Jetblue merger, so did a quick search

5.4% (JetBlue market share)+ 5.1% (Spirit market share) = 10.5%

10.5% < 17.7% (Delta market share)

Exactly why is this anti-trust? I can list many more egregious companies…

3. Kevin Scott’s comments on “ai’s ability being an equalizing force if built with sufficient patience” (I’m paraphrasing here) reminded me of the Trojan Horse

Couple takeaways that’s been marinating esp after the new yorker’s article on Microsoft:

2. Are checks and balances possible with SA holding such tremendous power (even greater after what transpired)? Will be interesting to see the new governance structure

Walk-in wait time at the honolulu DMV is atrocious

@IsaacFan1833863 We provided the students with fans already, just not expensive $70 tower fans. The argument presented against the 3 students buying the expensive fans is that everyone in the camp should be “equal”. The scholarship student has low social-economic status.

[Tim Ho @thetimho]

Leading a summer camp in Boston, and 3 high school students (out of 30) bought $70 fans because the dorms aren’t air conditioned (plus the fans provided were inadequate). Other leaders think this is problematic as there may be students who can’t afford them (on scholarship)…
