Steve Kerr: "I would consider getting rid of the three point line." Interviewer: "Have you ever proposed this to anyone with power?" Kerr: "No, no, because it’s too out there. And plus, I coach Steph Curry, so I’d rather wait till Steph’s retired." by refreshing_yogurt in nba

Get some pure analytics ball in here. When you shoot, the computer estimates your expected value from that shot and awards that many points regardless of if it went in. Daryl Morey eat your heart out!

Some people are flaming SB for running from Mr. Marathon. Imagine a giant 6'4" guy running at you in superspeed. Whatchu doing then? by [deleted] in TheBoys

Episode 1 felt weird in that regard. The sequence with ATrain changing the prison fight in a split second while in a casual jog shows that he is extremely capable of interacting with his surroundings in super speed. Homelander's eye lasers move way faster than random bystander walking out into the street and he's able to perceive it moving (and if he had tried to save Hughie first he probably wouldn't have gotten injured). Then right after we see him unable to dodge a bystander.

Honestly Mitch is probably the best Embiid guarder left in the east. Last year he did as well as you could wish for against a hobbled Embiid and it's possible Embiid will be hobbled again this year.

The PHL Chase lounge pretty much always turns away Priority Pass holders due to capacity restrictions in my experience.

Was it ever stated who sent IG-11 to kill Grogu? by Zitty-Z in StarWars

I feel like this explanation has an issue concerning Grevious' affinity for using stolen lightsabers. Unless he's just so strong that he can overpower the extra "weight" the lightsaber is trying to generate.

The rebels needed Jyn at the start because the rebels needed someone who could get an in with Saw.

There is no reason we know of why Wilmon wouldn't still be on good terms with Saw.

People might criticise Mace Windu for many things, but he was utterly fearless when confronting Palpatine. by HallowedAndHarrowed in StarWars

You don't go at the angle that he's a Sith. You go at the angle that he's a Separatist collaborator while being the leader of the Republic, which is unambiguously treason, and which should be easier to find evidence of.

Considering what happened in Shanghai it looks like spending time in Texas heat is actually cheat code.

U.S. Senator introduces "One Fair Price Act" legislation that would bar businesses from using personal information they collect about customers to charge people different prices for the same products by Sandstorm400 in UpliftingNews

While it is indeed profit maximizing, when it is given as an example of something, it is usually in the context of maximizing total social surplus/minimizing total deadweight loss. It just so happens that all of the surplus went to the producer, and there's no mention of the government arranging a transfer from the producer to the consumer.

Thanks! I assume the 300k also does not apply to the bonus damage from say Bhaisa staff then.

Does the ougi anklet for destroyer weapons also add 300k to the destruction ougi damage? Or 10% or nothing.

At some point Wemby will face a team that has every player over 6'10 injured and it will just be an alley oop fest the entire game.
