artemis live feed is so fucking funny rn

“houston uh what do we do with these usb cables”

“uh just leave them out integrity we will tell you in the morning how to stow them”

“houston how many pee bags should we have?”

amazing stuff

accuracy is valuable

ya i get that. maybe someone could identify some underperforming players without phrasing it in a way that impugns their honor

i keep seeing ppl saying stuff about effort, i wish they would name names. i haven’t been able to catch many of the games lately. who’s phoning it in? who’s showing effort?

the parse you seem not to have can be paraphrased “is earning more money than your kid bad for your dog?”

(for me, obv)

there are definitely two parses

“is it bad for your dog to earn more money than your kid” is structurally ambiguous, two clear readings

good but a garden-path (at least when written, i think it may be fine in speech, at least for some prosodies)

so weird that he’s less sharp lately after getting started 27 games in a row including a back-to-back

BAGGER: (spilling my groceries on the floor) Oh God. I'm so sorry. This isn't what I'm supposed to do.

ME: How are you supposed to do it?

MANAGER: She means she was gonna be a fox. In the woods and shit. But something happened and she got stuck.

BAGGER: (crying) Got so stuck.

do you think you could come up with a way to visualize the scoreboard-watching sadness experienced by red wings fans over the past, say, week

this is like the very first scene in the montage that segues to an apocalyptic landscape

i actually think it's lowkey problematic to joke about stabbing caesar bc for some low income senators becoming tyrant is literally the only route out of poverty

1 seems right, 3 seems wrong but understandable. 2 is just silly

4-panel comic. (1) [Person with white hat talking to another person.] PERSON 1 with white hat: As Sherlock Holmes said, When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth. (2) PERSON 2: What about the possibility that you forgot to eliminate a possibility? Or that you eliminated one incorrectly? Both of those remain, too. (3) PERSON 1: You’re being pedantic. It’s just a general rule for deduction. PERSON 2: But it’s a *bad rule*. (4) PERSON 2: How often have you thought, “I can’t find this thing, and I’ve searched the whole house. The only place I haven’t looked is the car, so it *must* be there.” PERSON 2: ...And then it’s never in the car. PERSON 1: *It’s never in the car!*

My dumbest sports opinion is that they should do Olympic speed skating on a really long, straight track instead of laps on an oval track

one thing that would be cool, when prominent creators turn out to be terrible people, would be if we didn't have to go through this performative dance of insisting that their work was never good in the first place.

eventually chotiner’s god-tier reputation is gonna go to his head (like, it has to, it can’t not) and every additional one of these we get until then is a blessing

We need to shut down the word "performative" until we can figure out what the hell is going on. Of course adopting symbols of protest and resistance is performative! Performance is a core strategy for mass movements!! That's why the call them demonstrations!!!

interesting. so iiuc the upper left is all teams that take their time to set up high quality chances, but there could be two kinds of teams in the lower right: those that take their time to set up highly recoverable chances (CAR) and those that just rip it first chance they get?

what’s the relationship between shot quality and time-to-reestablish possession? is the theory that carolina et al are specifically prioritizing recoverability over danger in their shots and thus tanking their own shot quality?

sounds pretty good! i’m almost tempted to dust off some python projects just so i can check it out
