On the road to the Pistons/Bucks game and checked in on Michigan mbb… lol

Not altogether surprising, but I wouldn’t have put money on “A Candle in the Window” being the song to get me all choked up during my first Christmas season as a father.

Pounds table: “Dummymander! Dummymander!”

Turns out Kenji’s Hasselback potato gratin is as good as they say.

It really is still a problem that people call what ChatGPT does "lying." It is not trying to tell the truth or lie or understand. It is generating text. When it says it was wrong and is sorry it is not, it was and is doing exactly what it was built to do: generate text.

Gonna be chanting "dummymander, dummymander" in my sleep for the next year.

No one under 30 is actually reshaping the future without it being 100% fraud and/or grift.

This is actually quite brilliant, up to and including the final sentence 🔥

What if they just win The Game for the fifth time in a row?

That weird head space where it would have been really cool for my son to have been around for 13-10 last year, and his first Game will probably be a loss VS. lots of appropriate perspective this year and WHAT IF WE WIN THE FIFTH TIME IN A ROW.

Yep, that’s a plate.

Hello focaccia!!

Thread of things I’m thankful for starts here. #1 is family. My son, our first, is 10 months old today and seeing the world through his eyes is the greatest thing. His laugh is heaven on earth. Watching my wife take on being a kickass mom is so damn cool. Siblings as aunts and uncles? Incredible.

Always nice to start Thanksgiving off with an easy, make-ahead breakfast casserole (hat tip to the in-laws for the recipe, but it’s about as basic as recipes get) that will tide you over until a late dinner.

Good morning and Happy Thanksgiving from my redeye flight back to the East Coast. Here's one final column from Vegas, on the juggernaut that is Michigan. What I witnessed this week was literally record-breaking. A three-day regular-season performance unlike anything college basketball has ever seen.

Ok, but who is Kenpom #0 and can we play them tomorrow?

YAX YAX YAX

Michigan Basketball.

Detroiters "Hot dog bowl" joke on Survivor just made my night.

Dusty gettin' coached up in the post-game interview by his players is great

Michigan Basketball.

Goddamn. What a half of basketball.

Trey is cooking with GAS

Bigs that can shoot free throws. Hnnngh.

The number of dudes on this team that can put their head down and get to the basket feels like a great asset.

"They're not gonna keep shooting like this" Oh, we sure?

lol these Wolverines can play.

The only good pie is Dutch boeterkoek. Taking no questions.

No one thinks ChatGPT is sentient. I know the people that publicly say it might be would not be telling it the stuff they do if they thought it could judge them for it.

I cannot wait for the follow-up article about Thanksgiving AI Recipe Flops. Hope no one gets seriously injured or poisoned.

The Chair Company has somehow continued to up the weird every single week.

Journalist challenge: Use “Machine Learning” when you mean machine learning and “LLM” when you mean LLM. Ditch “AI” as a catch-all term, it’s not useful for readers and it helps companies trying to confuse the public by obscuring the roles played by different technologies. 🧪

I live in constant fear that my son’s first words will be “Hey Google”

This might be the single funniest thing that has happened during this incredibly cursed year

A deep and heartfelt fuck you to anyone that can disregard every single person that experiences a body failing to function in a way that requires intervention. A complete and utter hatred for the sick, the disabled, the poor, the human. If you haven't experienced this yet, you will.

Busy few days for MBB, get home and get some sleep.

Aaaaand, bang. Trey getting more comfortable by the minute.

idk exactly what it is because he's got a lot of improvement ahead of him, but I really appreciate Trey McKenny's vibe.

Just my opinion but 17 turnovers is too many turnovers only 4 minutes into the 2nd half.

Friendsgiving prep has begun. Up first is meatballs. Baked them last night to get some sear and then frozen. Into a slow cooker tomorrow to simmer in a simple marinara.

If you need me, tap me on the shoulder. I’ll be happily working all day listening to this on a loop.

Airpod Pros are great, but there are days when I'm in the office and I really need my giant Sony over-ears to indicate that I really do not want to be disturbed unless absolutely necessary.

Friendsgiving this weekend, and it's looking like my contributions will be: - Homemade meatballs in marinara sauce (considered meatloaf) - Roasted garlic and rosemary focaccia - A yule log My theme is: delicious stuff that's easy to make and transport.

Homemade focaccia breakfast sandwiches. Hnnnngh

It won't happen but I wonder if republicans are even entertaining the idea of impeaching and removing trump. People hate this dude! Do yourself a favor!

*pounding table* Dummymander! Dummymander! Dummymander!

I learned the term "dummymander" two days ago and now it's all I can think about.

They're calling it the Sisu election.
