Several years ago I had an opportunity to nerd out about offense creation with Matt Duchene. He told me he "hates" to attack down this side (as opposed to his off-side). But this is textbook - place puck on forehand, force the D to reach and then go through the contact.
THE Babcock Marner incident as told by Kadri in his book
Back in 2019, I asked Aaron Rodgers how he got so good at Hail Mary throws. He said Packers coaches typically gave him those reps in practice to preserve Brett Favre's arm. Rodgers: "You get good at it by practicing them." espn.com/nfl/story/_/id…
So many people have asked me for years "what is time?" I'm happy to have found a little, er, time to write a piece "On the Nature of Time" writings.stephenwolfram.com/2024/10/on-the…
That elbow is a three game suspension in hockey.
“Oh my goodness. The White Sox have just gone full White Sox.” @kevinnbrown sums up the Chicago White Sox, who are on their way to a 31-109 record.
I won't be complaining about hockey data issues ever again
The Oilers are signing Viktor Arvidsson, Adam Henrique and Jeff Skinner for a combined $10M cap hit, without going longer than 2 years of term on any of them. That's very strong value to net on July 1
Here’s a video on Vasilevskiy explaining what I mean about the stiff blocker arm.

This totally blew my mind. Turns out there is a compelling theory that our cells have higher level abstractions to work together, namely this process called biolectricity Genes are closer to machine code, and as engineers we don’t usually look there. And it turns out that our…
there is a revolution taking place in biology before our eyes I spent the past month reading the papers & interviews of @drmichaellevin, and wrote a long-form essay explaining his work and why it's important bitsofwonder.co/p/a-revolution…

That was such an unacceptable third period. It’s hard to articulate how bad it was. Laviolette / the leaders need to make a major statement in that room right now. I’m shocked at how ugly and uninspired that was. First stinker of the playoffs, but critical moment for it to happen
"Shot volume is where everything happens. Because if you don't shoot, then the defensive team stays in the same spots. They don't have to move, they don't have to do anything." - Bruce Boudreau on fixing the PP @thegoldenmuzzy | @Jay_D_Rosehill Presented by @sleepdouglas
i know sometimes ml repos are hard to run. but dont worry: ive created seven python notebooks with 45 cells each, 4 docker images, a venv that uses poetry+conda+pdm, and a bash script with six hardcoded variables. it only works on my cuda version so i made another notebook to h-
“We never really did that kind of stuff in Tampa” “It’s new to me” The #Avs don’t just embrace analytics, or just have a coach that’s fluent in them. It’s how they use the data and how they communicate it to players. Really enjoyed working on this one… denverpost.com/2024/05/05/col…
MLPs are so foundational, but are there alternatives? MLPs place activation functions on neurons, but can we instead place (learnable) activation functions on weights? Yes, we KAN! We propose Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks (KAN), which are more accurate and interpretable than MLPs.🧵
WSH-NYR - NYR have a balanced offense that can burn you in a lot of ways. Top line is a cheat code for odd-man rushes & they're very sneaky with deflections. - WSH's goaltending & rush defense carried them all year & will have to this series. Need someone to step up on offense.
