What’s neat is that when he eventually became a GM, Eric Tulsky, the outsider’s outsider, surrounded himself in a front office with women and men just like him. Bloggers, lawyers, computer people even.
And it worked.

I can understand why the default would be to trust that NHL teams know more about every aspect of the game than random bloggers.

Operation Metro Surge arrested more than 3,700 immigrants in the Twin Cities, overshadowing a second operation that got less attention — Operation PARRIS, the detention of any refugee in the country for more than 365 days who had not yet been issued a Green Card (which aren’t available within the first year of arrival anyway). Targets included this attorney’s 17-year-old target, who was on her way to class, as in high school…

Good god this is a crazy interview. Listen as Scott Pelley describes how Bari Weiss wanted journalists at CBS to cover the killing of Renee Good in Minnesota. This is why we can’t have oligarchs running our news outlets, this is absolutely devastating.

“AI is not going anywhere” is a PR line from a gen AI company press release that’s trying to make their bad broken technology seem inevitable. It’s bullshit. Please stop repeating it.
Keke Palmer opens up about her thoughts on AI:
"The climate stuff is worrying and concerning, but then there’s the reality that it’s not going anywhere. So I find myself trying to figure out how to be prepared, how to create things that protect the environment, be a part of things that are making it ethical. But I’m also understanding how it’s democratizing a lot of spaces for people that otherwise couldn’t reach them. So it’s weird. It can be so positive, but it also can be so damaging."

Can’t believe this is just a week away.
What’s truly unbelievable is that @Gunnarsolson & I have somehow convinced 200-plus people to spend their hard-earned American dollars to see us.
Can’t wait.
There's one week to go: Join us (and 230 other travel lovers attending!) for a live recording of the Thrifty Traveler Podcast in Minneapolis next Friday! thriftytraveler.com/podcasts…

For the first time yesterday, I experienced the new @alamodrafthouse QR code ordering system and I can tell you it’s truly awful. Rather than making ordering food and drink more efficient, it actually adds steps to the process AND if you want to order additional items during the film you HAVE to open your phone. No, your cute reference to that irony in your How To Alamo video doesn’t negate how ridiculous this is. Please don’t cut corners with your staff and revert back to physical menus and order cards.

Happy Pride!
Please read and share this gift link to a column I wrote last year about Thom Higgins, a Minnesotan who coined the term gay pride. He was a real pioneer who should never be forgotten.
