I am reading ‘privacy’ as ‘piracy’ all day today

Retrosheet is pleased to announce its second semi-annual release of 2025, which includes play-by-play files for the 1910 and 2025 seasons, box-score files for the 1898 season, and a deep dive into the 1935 Negro League season. www.retrosheet.org/fall2025rele...

So Arsenal is really a top club now. I am not sure I am used to it

My wife says I have a very sexy voice. Obviously I think my voice is disgusting

Is Bayern any good? Concerned Arsenal fan asking

Is there like a 101 on fantasy baseball? I don’t know what it is and what it does and if I want to participate

I did not understand what Thomas Frank was about. Your approach cannot be to just do nothing and see what happens especially if it is against Arsenal.

Somehow when Arsenal has a comfortable lead it makes me more nervous

Well, Arsenal has already won this week

It is enough to login to the internet in the evening and I don’t want to fucking live, not only in these times but on this planet

Watching Pluribus part of me is waiting for Saul Goodman to appear from around the corner in his Subaru Esteem

It may seem weird given Clase’s salary but I know a wealthy guy who owns a dozen of apartments and also earns a lot of money and he always goes to a store which is 30 minutes from his home because beer there is two cents cheaper.

New Arsenal is inevitable. Old Arsenal too.

That Hakimi injury looked awful

My mute words list is growing every week and my feed is still full of american politics

I must say I am proud of my 10yo son. He is not obsessed at all with technology and gadgets. And he often tells me he envies my childhood when he could just go outside and play with friends instead of sitting home in front of tv.

I can put up with boring Arsenal if they keep winning those games

These articles scare me

I don't know why companies like Salesforce are pushing so hard for AI when they cannot make something simple and useful work. Maybe that's how Salesforce determines their strategy? "Hey, the probability of success is 192000%, so it should be good, right?!"

Liverpool is in trouble

Charts I don't like:

We were waiting out the rain together with Tim Roth near Piccadilly. My stupid brain could not remember any movie with him except Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead

I'm still not particularly happy about passkeys and figured I might want to share my thoughts on why. lucumr.pocoo.org/2025/9/2/pas...

If you're new to the Unix or Linux command line, I just want you to know: Me and all my colleagues with years of experience Still get confused between `ln -s` and `ln` daily.

I’ve been asked to share my opinion about you twice in the last two weeks. No Prize in sight though 😉 @upcloud.com at least appreciate the loyalty!

I generally despise Microsoft and whatever comes out of it but I think PowerShell is a cool software. Works on MacOS and Linux too.

Me: I will go to bed early today because I am tired Also me three hours later: fixing znc that suddenly stopped running on a cloud server. Good thing, I was able to fix it!

The heat is killing me… or is it the result of updating to trixie, and I am accursed by bookworm?

Arsenal is kicking it off tomorrow and I am prepared for another season of high hopes and frustration somewhere in early December…

Updated to Debian 13 today. Besides a couple of external apps that I had to reinstall, everything went smoothly.

So this money will go to AI because AI can do it all? Or is it ‘to hell with it as long as we show some cost savings’? I wonder if in a couple of years companies will not be feverishly chasing whoever they can find on the market and probably overpaying as well. www.darkreading.com/cybersecurit...

I am so tired of the AI bullshit. The only good thing from this is that I doubled my time in learning new things in the hope that I don’t become dumb and easily susceptible to manipulation and propaganda in the bright future that is ahead of us

I suggest to send Altman to space already not to prepare the ground for future graduates

There are lots of ways to "do honeypots", and if you'd like to do a bit of what I do on a daily basis (though in a different way) def take a look at this project: lightscope.isi.edu Clever idea! Decent-ish dashboards. *Do not* use the blocklists. Lots of overlaps with our Benign lists.

Microsoft is like Salesforce, whatever they touch turns either to shit or to a whole bunch of shit

Good that I have recently decided to ditch them. Not that I had a lot there but still

It is interesting how I’ve recently came to the same thing, though I do it in markdown. Every day is a new markdown file with todo’s, notes, ideas, commentary to what I am reading. All version controlled with git and placed into Codeberg repo. Works great for me! www.al3rez.com/todo-txt-jou...

Must everything in this world be about growth?

The last sentence is the most scary, “they” want us dumber than ever, not asking questions but just consuming whatever they give us.

Asked AI for a solution (nothing major, how to do something in pandas). Spent 30 minutes explaining. Got two solutions, none of which worked. Literally, bugs and errors. Spent 40 minutes researching errors, because the corrections it suggested didn't work either. Ended up reading docs. Productivity!

Fuck him. My life choice is to be at a disadvantage

How do I read this? For example, how many trades the Yankees made with the White Sox? I need some sort of ruler to track the lines down. Looks cool form the first glance, but maybe you need to make aggregations like inter league trades vs in-league trades or something. By team it is unreadable

Notebooks 2.0 is here! 📓🔮 Previewing today:
Notebook Kit, an open file format for notebooks with open-source tooling for generating static sites; and
Observable Desktop, a macOS desktop application for editing notebooks as local files, with a radical new approach to AI. observablehq.com/notebooks/2/

Still…

One of those dull Yankees day games I see

That’s how I read books in English too and it is not a fast process. Frustrating sometimes as I struggle through pages. It is good to know that native speakers do that too.

All 5 subs are still available. I have no money in this thing, but 2-3 emails about baseball stuff a week for free for a month is a good deal!

One of my dreams is to go to a baseball game and visit a SABR conference. The way the world is right now, I am optimistic I will do this as a retiree when I am 70 or so, assuming I live that long and the world still exists

Is it dumb to think that Skenes will be a better pitcher in the long run and will probably age better than Misiorowski?

96 mph slider is crazy…
