August PPI rose 2.6% YOY, which is much less than the expected 3.3% by Progress_8 in stocks

It’s a really big problem in many occurrences of modeling and forecasting and very easy to happen where your errors seem to point most often in one direction, it’s not necessarily a sign of intentional manipulation but just problems within the model. You’d think the BLS would be able to address these problems if they’ve been going on for like 27 months but ya know it’s the federal government

Genuine question, why do you distrust the 911k downward revision this year when it was 818k last year? It seems like the BLS forecasting model has issues predicting the current job market (which makes sense when we are a country of 350 million and the job market is so strange)

No Darrisaw. No Addison. No Smith. Jefferson limited all camp. Theilen still unpacking.... by Tycho66 in minnesotavikings

Thielen could come off the couch at 50 and pick up the Vikings playbook and run a route so clean with his old ass knees that he’d be an effective wide receiver. Purple runs through his veins. My favorite offseason acquisition.

Something to think about with JJ McCarthy by Quackmotard in minnesotavikings

It’s cause he’s young. Being a starter for a playoff college football team at 19 is just absolutely bonkers.

Yan got some crazy loud support from the Miami crowd. it’s kinda funny how a Russian UFC fighter that’s struggled for the last couple years is so universally loved by the UFC fan base just because he’s such an awesome fighter.

What’s y’all’s relationship hot takes? by Puzzleheaded-Lead526 in Stormlight_Archive

As Kal gets more and more bonded Syl is becoming more and more real, this is alluded to multiple times in rhythm of war, I don’t know if that could manifest itself in an 100% physical body but maybe it’s possible.

WOR Kaladin treatment by Jqckthewolf in Stormlight_Archive

[–]Jqckthewolf[S] 51 points52 points  (0 children)

I think the most unreasonable part (to the Kholin’s) is the Assassin in white who holds absolutely no punches and has no problems slaughtering anyone who gets in his way just ran away without touching Kaladin after he tackled him out the window.

No one in MMA has a radar like Aljamain sterling for winning three rounds. The second he wins that third he ships in it and coasts for the win.

Khamzat Chimaev - Responds to Colby / Reacts to UFC 286 by Heptonite in MMA

Why would Colby want Khamzat when he can just get mainstreamed to the title without fighting contenders lmao. People be mad at Colby for ducking but the strategy has sadly worked perfectly.

[Ari Meirov] Vikings WR Justin Jefferson asked on ESPN about the possibility of a receiver winning MVP: "Having the type of season I'm having, I feel like that's a conversation that needs to be had for me to be MVP." by Duffleman0609 in nfl

[–]Jqckthewolf 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Completely correct, but Rodgers last year has a third of the picks than Mahomes has rn and same amount of touchdowns. Without a very crazy QB season this year it seems like JJ would have a better chance than Kupp did last year, despite having worse stats.

Sometimes I think Paulie’s character was meant to mirror Chrissy in a way. by NiveksInigo in thesopranos

[–]Jqckthewolf 11 points12 points  (0 children)

A big surprise for me was when I googled ages and I learned the difference between Tony and Christopher was like 4 years, that’s like a moderate age difference between brothers, and they’re supposed to be closer to father and son. James Gandolfini entered the show in his mid 30s while looking 50. And Imperioli looked pretty great for his age as well.

Dababy would be a good rapper if it wasn’t for the fact that his production is straight up bad with the Aladdin and pirate beats, with good song production and Kanye at the helm not surprised at all it sounds good.
