dare I say that these things happening threes? who is next?

with the final 4 teams being not only the top 4 fifa rated teams but also the top 4 teams by elo rating, we have been delivered the least interesting outcome. to make things worse, the matchups are also like the teams were seeded into their spots .

We need more Neil the seals in the US. We need more chaotic neutral behemoths that can help take out some flock cameras every now and then

but did mitch mcconnell speak back??

first RO16 horror show, now this? what other tragedy will befall me this week? vinepair.com/booze-news/c...

We must balance out that terrible game by celebrating an upcoming bottle popping event 🐢

watching so many games of teams like paraguay and qatar go ham on people and get no cards and then watching this game would make you think they are two separate sports

DID NOT EXPECT A RED CARD SO EARLY IN THIS HALF

How wild is it that J is an 8 point scrabble letter but 1/4th of our months start with it?

just noticed that r 4.6 still uses rtools45. is this the first major R release to not have rtools increment in parity with the R version? #rstats #databs #datascience

Really bummed about the tiki bar situation in tampa. What did we do wrong to not deserve a proper tiki bar?

BIRTH RIGHT CITIZENSHIP FOR THE GOAL

we need a world cup but only massive knockout brackets and then the team that knocks another team out gets to use players from their roster.

That's the turkiye and USA people expected to see when they were making their brackets

Eep.

The US kicking off at 10 is very rude to sleepy people

Woah

Someone with a big soccer brain explain to me how Ecuador has gained 20 spots in fifa rankings in the last 4 years but can't get a ball in the back of the met

i'm excited about the world cup and have been consuming a ton of different content that i'd like to talk about/share.

so an orange team gets demoted from the prem but another orange team gets promoted from the championship? is this balance?

This is an odd thing to see in my very working class, run down area. #databs

How do we upheave the 5th circuit? It's been the main instrument for dismantling our rights.

I passed the milestone of my birdnet-pi ID'ing over 250k calls since November 2024. It's fun to see that we're probably right on the cusp of another explosion of migrants.

this feels HUGE!

ok, i vibecoded the thing github.com/ryanscharf/m.... this is a good testament by how much 'R in production' code is often about everything other than R #rstats

when looking for a #rstats mirai docker container, i wasn't expecting to find out that some botnet malware uses the same name

#wosoc fans, what kind of stuff do you like to see? What is #gainbridgesuperleague not giving you? What's your favorite stat to shitpost about? Feed me requests and I can see what I can make happen. #usl #usls #sportsanalytics #sickos

I'd like to get into to some of the details on how I productionalized this pipeline since this is one of the areas of #rstats and #datascience that you don't really get formal education on. I have a TrueNAS server that hosts docker containers to handle my infrastructure.

we're now live with the first public iteration! usls-modeling.ryanscharf.com

here's a tiny preview of some of the stats i've stood up so far. i have a lot of figuring out to do on how to get my db exposed and then themeing everything up to look right

"try connect cloud!", @libbyheeren.bsky.social says. "deployment is so easy! positron makes the manifest for you", she says

might have some birdhouse drama coming up

Going into the final 9ish games of the #uslsuperleague, here's where we stand with playoff odds as determined by 1 million season simulations. Come at me with your hot takes and trash talk me beloved Sun being garbage this year. #USLS #gainbridgesuperleague #woso #USL #sportsanalytics #databs
