Sports fedi seems like it’s a lot more fun than the rest of the fediverse. Y’all okay?

Certainly the most mildly irritating thing about this picture is that you’ve posted it to 10 separate communities (so far)

The --committer and --author flags to git log accept a regex, so just match on everything that isn’t your bot.

I do recognize your handle, I’ll give you that much.

Bicycles are allowed to treat stop signs as yield signs in many areas; it may be worth checking to see if you live in one of them. But rest assured! Statistically, for every one of those you see, there are hundreds more cars violating traffic laws.

Me too! It’s exhausting, and the most frustrating part is that it’s contagious. Generally, this means it’s time for me to turn off my phone and go outside in the sunshine and watch a soccer game. I dunno what your “watch a soccer game” is, but things like riding a bike or walking in a park or dangling your legs in the ocean definitely qualify. Mostly, the idea is to remind myself there are good things too, and to remember that the rain falls on the just and the unjust alike.

I’m with him that the evil is mostly coming from Miller et al, but I don’t think there’s enough Trump left to do much of anything other than watch cable news and shitpost online:

López Obrador urges Trump to “tell the parasites surrounding him to go to hell” and concludes by saying “for everyone’s sake, let the other Trump return”.

Precisely:

This was backed up by traffic officer PC Mark Hodson of West Midlands police who said that the “effects of behavior that people are moaning about is negligible. If you look at the statistics, if you look at the actual threat of harm, cyclists aren’t posing a risk to anybody.”

Well, the drivers are by-and-large the ones who opposed properly funding the light rail’s initial construction, so I do still blame them.

I think what’s most concerning is that it’s an elevated station. How do you leave the surface and not notice?

This study doesn’t really improve my impression of LLMs, but it does really hurt my impression of the value of a law degree:

Participants created 40 representative contract law questions that students might ask after class or during office hours, wrote their own answers, and then evaluated responses without knowing whether they came from AI or other participating professors. The AI systems performed comparably to the best human instructor in the study.

Perhaps most striking: professors flagged AI responses as pedagogically harmful only 3.5% of the time, compared to 12% for peer-written answers.

“In most fields where AI gets tested, there’s a right answer. In law, there often isn’t,” said Sarath Sanga, co-author and professor at Yale Law School. “Two opposing arguments can both be good. What we wanted to know is whether AI can meet the latent professional standard that lawyers use to evaluate each other’s arguments. In this case, the answer was yes.”

Yeah. A lot of USLW games are played in gridiron stadiums, and the touchline is way further out than the sideline. They’re not required to be strictly uniform like gridiron, though, it’s more like a baseball diamond in that regard, so I’m not sure if they’re strictly wider, or just usually wider.

Right?! It’s just so puzzling a choice.

I am also fascinated by the measurement “two soccer fields.” Americans largely play soccer on American football fields, so any American would just say “two football fields.” But everyone else hates calling it “soccer” and prefer to use metric rather than comparisons? This just seems like they chose all their measurements to be maximally irritating.

Mostly what I think is it’s awesome we’ve come so far that folks are worried about their feed being too crowded. Time was folks’d say they’d browse every post from all and it still wasn’t enough.

You have a broad definition of what a city is. Tracy is more of a highway truckstop with aspirations. Gustine is barely a hamlet. Hilmar isn’t even incorporated.

I had given up on contributing to open source, but I might dust off my keyboard for this one:

How to Contribute  

Find a corporate chatbot that can answer general questions  
Reverse-engineer the API (WebSocket, REST, etc.)  
Build an OpenAI-compatible proxy (follow chipotle-llm-provider as a template)  
Submit a PR adding your provider to packages/opencode/src/provider/  
See the chipotle-llm-provider source for the proxy pattern: Express server + WebSocket client + OpenAI-compatible /v1/chat/completions endpoint.  

What do you think he was talking about with his doctor that made them bring up a drug that brings people back from the dead?

The president went on to address how such medications get tested, adding, “And some [drugs] don’t work. You learn very fast. It’s called the ultimate test, I think, right? They test all these things. They use animals all over the place, they use everything to test because a person’s going to die.”

Especially if you’re watching from an ICE detention cell

Huh, weird. The ~-6 score seems about right, since that’s about the number of ambient downvotes you should expect in a niche community from people who feel entitled to an “all” feed that is tailored to their preferences only, but renaming the community is kinda weird — the only way to get that behavior to stop is to keep posting until the downvoters get tired of it and finally block your community, so deleting and recreating is counterproductive.
