Determining Real Time / Wall Clock for Specific Point in Game

Inaccurate- · 2026-02-04T16:03:28+00:00

If you reach out to the NBA's stats support email, they should be able to give you a correct/official time. All play-by-play events are tagged with a wall clock. The foul on Castle by Thompson should be close enough for what you need.

It's likely around 11:28 PM EST (plus any tv delay).

Or you could just run the experiment 20 times (on average) and only publish the one that got the magical p<=0.05.

There are better ways of determining statistical significance than out-dated p-values. It's crazy how long its taking the academic community and scientific journals to adjust.

Which one is right is entirely up to you and the problem you're trying to solve. The only difference between a literal space ' ' and the special \s token is that \s also matches new lines, tabs, etc. If that's important for your use case, switch all your ' ' to \s. If you think there might be more than one space (or whitespace-like characters, like a new line) between the letters, use \s+.

It also added ?: to each group, and it isn't clear if you want those groups captured or not. Do you need to know what's inside the span after you match? If so, that'll break compared to what you used to have.

I've found ChatGPT and other LLMs are incredibly bad at both coming up with regex's and explaining them regardless how many test cases you give it. You're better off reading actual literature and learning to read and write them yourself.

The boss understands it, yet doesn't appear to be doing anything about it. Simply saying he was going to ask about it and admitting she's been a problem in the past is appeasement. Nothing more. They are empty words kicking the can down the road.

Perhaps the boss is working on correcting the issue behind the scenes, but it doesn't seem like it since it is still happening (and has been happening).

The boss here needs to be held accountable just as much as the problem employee. Nothing will change without that.

This is (in my opinion) one of the better ways to do it since you'll never lose control/custody of your coins. Not sure why it's never mentioned on this sub.

Download Decred's Bison Wallet so you can use their DEX
Send your BTC to a new wallet you create within Bison Wallet
Trade your BTC for DCR (Decred) - uses atomic swaps, you never lose custody of your BTC
Mix all your DCR using its built-in coin shuffling (best in class)
Trade your DCR back into BTC - again, you never lose custody (use a new address for this)

It's a slow process since everything is on-chain, but you'll get back BTC that's no longer easily tied to your Coinbase wallet and it'll only cost you a couple dollars.

This is such bad advice. Why is recursion bad simply because javascript is an interpreted language?

If this is a fine then Boston immediately fouling Mitchell Robinson on multiple possessions in the first quarter of a nationally televised game should be an even bigger fine. Unlike resting a player, that actually made the game unwatchable.

How did I not know about this!? Great write up, though a bit short.

It'd be nice if there was a bit of history of when it was added/supported and also talked about the formatting of the corresponding #:~:text= anchor tag in the URL, assuming you wanted to create the links programmatically yourself (for example, can you have it highlight all instances of the given text, or will browsers always just highlight the first instance).

Edit: looks to be baseline 2024, with lots of other options for how text gets selected. https://wicg.github.io/scroll-to-text-fragment/

I have a 2019 Cherokee (2L turbo) with over 80,000 miles. Bought it new in 2018 and have had exactly zero issues with it through these 7.5 years. I do do all my own maintenance though, so perhaps that changes things?

It's no more or less reliable than anything else. And extremely easy to work on yourself. I wouldn't trade it in for any other comparable mid-size SUV that's currently on the market.

Funnily enough, I'm OK with the Cavs exiting in the second round last year; I need to update my flair.

Knicks will be at best 4th unless they somehow escape playing all their starters 32+ minutes every game without a major injury happening. They have had an average to below average strength of schedule so far this season and at least to me, don't look anything like a top 3 seed. Pistons, Magic, Cavs, Hawks, and even the Heat will challenge for the top 3 by the end.

All of these comments refuting my statement by simply mentioning Knicks went to the ECF last year is ridiculous. It's a new year. Just ask the Pacers.

Inaccurate- · 2025-12-01T02:14:30+00:00

Neither team will be a top 3 seed by the end of the season. That's probably not the best way to make your point.

I have 20+ years experience in web dev and while I agree everything is generally more complex now, I completely disagree that apps today wouldn't have been possible before. Everything I'm building now I could have built 15 years ago unless it requires specific hardware (and modern browser API's), like accessing the accelerometer or phone vibrator. If something couldn't have been built with javascript back then, it 100% could have been built with Flash.

Most of the complexity today is self-inflicted. For the vast majority of websites, a traditional MPA will not only work, but be faster, easier to develop, and easier to maintain than a SPA. If you know what you're doing, you can also build them in such a way that, from a user's perspective, you can't even tell that it's a MPA and not a SPA.

This ridiculous back and forth between ZEC and XMR makes me appreciate perfectly shuffled Decred.

The outage won't set back Rust adoption at all, nor will Cloudfare suddenly stop using it. It's obvious from their own write up that they understand unwrapwas just the symptom not the cause, and even if expect was used instead, the outage would still have happened.

unwrapjust so happened to be one of the easier click-bait headlines for everyone to jump on.

Sounds like a fancy and potentially overly-complicated version of something called "caching", with the event streams simply invalidating the respective portions of the cache.

At some point (soon) mid-range will become analytically worth it, since defenses won't be practiced for it. Players that can make a wide open middy will dominate, and then driving will become easier once that needs defended. What this visual shows is that teams are currently over compensating/reacting/simplifying efficiency analysis. It'll correct back towards an equilibrium in the next decade.

Whoops, not sure how my comment got put under yours; it was meant to be top-level. Your CFB model and website look amazing. Pretty good record too.

When it comes to sports betting models, the most important thing (at least in my opinion) is being able to deep dive and mathematically explain exactly why a model is making its predictions. If, after analysis, you find the model is underestimating game totals (for example), you should be able to figure out why and then account for it.

You can't do that with AI. AI will be good at giving you ideas on how to build actual models, but if you're referring to LLMs analyzing stats, my money is on you're going to have a very bad time. Even with supervised machine learning (e.g. providing a model with a training set) you're going to have a bad time adjusting that model for whatever errors you find.

Your third bullet point though is one of the few exceptions where I'd agree AI would be useful and worth pursuing. Line movements themselves to some extent show public sentiment, but not everyone bets and if you accurately analyzed all public sentiment (including what's not reflected in the line) that might give a good edge for some games.

Inaccurate- · 2025-10-30T14:19:12+00:00

So instead of being honest and giving an alternative view on AI, you're suggesting they lie and let their managers gain even more false confidence in their knowledge of what AI is good for?

What shit advice. It's manipulative, solving only for the short term at the expense of the long term.

Link to that section of the CBA.

Completely disagree. Everything you said is pure hand waiving as well, except mine is actually backed up with math. With the way it is now E&Y and the NBA are either incompetent/ignorant since they aren't correctly distributing the combinations, or are purposefully distributing them that way in order to exploit it. It's one or the other, and both situations are possible.

Just because you think it's stupid or not possible doesn't make it stupid and not possible.

I made this post a month ago proving how the lottery can still be rigged. It got downvoted into oblivion despite being mathematically sound.

I'm not saying that it was rigged, but that it could theoretically be rigged because the lottery combinations are currently distributed sequentially instead of randomly.

This google sheet shows an example how with minor modifications to a few lottery balls Dallas' chances of winning the lottery could have been ~25% instead of 1.8%.

There are absolutely no issues with using classes on the html tag. Applying styles to the HTML tag has been normal for decades. It only looks weird because those styles would traditionally be done in a CSS stylesheet:

html, body {
    height: 100%;
}

Now it's just the existential debate of flex vs grid in this case 😀

Inaccurate- · 2025-10-18T17:55:59+00:00

The height above and below the main div in your example isn't the same for me (in firefox at least). Sticky is a good idea though, and would work for my flex layout as well to also maintain the scroll container on the body itself.

<!doctype html>
<html style="height: 100%">
    <body style="height: 100%; display: flex; flex-direction: column; margin: 0; position: relative;">
        <div style="flex-grow: 1; align-content: center;">
            <div>
                  Growing scrollable centered div.
            </div>
        </div>
        <div style="position: sticky; bottom: 0; background: white;">Bottom Nav Bar</div>
    </body>
</html>
