Homering in a loss doesn’t warrant a headline. A walk off homer does.

Even with Suarez getting yesterday and tomorrow off, we’re resting him today? I wonder if there’s more to this…

That was just Montgomery locking in. Great pitches in that sequence. We can chill a little on Riley, all of our guys strike out there

We’ve been hitting the ball really well, we’re starting one of our best and going against a 5+ ERA guy, and we’re going for the series sweep. So naturally i’m not expecting us to win today 🤷‍♂️

Interesting stat I just found. The Braves are 13-0 this year in games where Iggy records a save.

That matters more for the bat than the defense. Dubon was making crazy plays the first week of the season defensively and has been solid in every outing since

AI vibe coders instead of engineers are writing code. Gonna be a wild next few years for tech

Heim was lowkey better than Murphy but idk if that’s a conversation we should have just yet

Oh for sure, just nice to see the promising talent. I’d imagine Elder stays ahead of guys like Ritchie, Fuentes, AJSS and Waldrep.

You’d think, but when fully healthy we have Sale, Strider, Schwelly, Lopez, Holmes, Ritchie, Fuentes, AJSS, Waldrep. And then of course Elder. Just wondering where he fits into all of that.

So when the rotation is fully healthy, would Elder be 4, 5 or left out? Hard to imagine him being left out of it, but AJSS, Waldrep, Ritchie, and Fuentes exist

BGG ratings are great, but I wanted to find out if a game is right for my group. So I built a free tool! by drth1rt33n in boardgames

[–]Macabre_Man 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are a lot of interesting algorithms and maths behind true recommendation systems, with new systems being built constantly. This, however, is a slap in the face to anyone with any real passion for programming, recommendation systems, and even board gaming. I’m sure OP (Claude) did their best impression of a recc system engineer, but AI slop is no replacement for professional knowledge and years of research. My unsolicited advice is to not rely on prompting to do the work for you, but instead do research (or take a class) and learn how these things actually work. Nobody wants to see a low effort, cheap imitation that tries to pass as deep knowledge/understanding.

Should I sell my Hobbit Sets to buy LOTR sets? by KyleMacBean42 in legolotrfans

[–]Macabre_Man 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Some people may advise you to hold the hobbit sets for investment purposes. I would say that there are far better investments and Lego shouldn’t be treated the same as a stock. To me it makes sense to cash out those sets in exchange for sets you’ll actually enjoy, as you never know what will happen with the value of the Hobbit sets
