JOSÉ RAMIREZ FOR THE LEAD IN GAME 5

The first Russian diesel cargo heading for the US left St Petersburg on September 22, two weeks *before* Trump announced the deal with Putin, Windward reports. The Greek-flagged tanker Minerva Zen carrying 275,000 barrels of diesel/gasoil is due at the US East Coast around 11–12 October.

And then there’s Jose. CLE baseball history is lousy with great players leaving. Belle, Manny, Thome, Sabathia, Lindor. Not Jose. He *chose* to stay here. In Cleveland. And he never quits. Legend.

Guardian thoughts… First, just astonishing how consistently good they’ve been for over a decade. Smallest market and usually one of the youngest team in MLB. Lots of complaining about ownership, but the front office is outstanding.

This is how you write a headline.

Telegraph headline:

Trump backstabs Zelensky for five minutes of midterm relief
Deal with Putin for Russia’s oil might soften the markets but Ukraine will pay the price

This is so sick. So a Russian blood diesel vessel is on its way to NC set to arrive tomorrow. It left St Petersburg on Sept 22nd. This Trump-Putin plan has been in the works for weeks can’t picture what allies America will have left after this

The game plan is not for Fetterman to win as a Republican in 2028 but to convince him that’s the only option so he will switch sides in 2027 and potentially swing the senate.

All right so Fetterman is definitely being told by Republican billionaires and Senators that he can win if he runs again as a Republican, so get ready for him to switch parties. (I think we can make that switch less likely if we make it publicly clear he has no chance of winning as a Republican.)

Meanwhile, Fetterman is still fundraising with an eye toward running again after the midterms, he said during an onstage interview
at the Texas Tribune Festival in Austin last month. Political observers have debated
whether he will switch parties or become an independent. And while he has rejected those rumors, his campaign has collected donations from major GOP donors since last year, and new campaign solicitations have specifically targeted GOP voters as his poll numbers among Democrats have plummeted, including after his video introducing McCormick and complimenting Trump at the Republican
midterm convention in September.

Has anyone invoked Clarke’s Law yet as a touchpoint for this whole “Is AI conscious now?” thing? Okay, I’m invoking it

They did it! Incredible comeback, incredible team. TWENTY ONE strikeouts. And, of course, Jose Ramirez. Onto the ALCS!

OK, I don't often toot my own horn. But I'll make an exception on this post ... because it is absolutely CRUCIAL to exercise franchise during the midterms, especially if you live in Michigan. Please have a look+listen and be sure to make a plan to vote, and then VOTE! 😡

Cool to hear! I love what you’re doing!

#NFD41 was a great success for the @nokia team, and for @artofneteng podcast.

Shout out to @NetworkingNerd and the whole @TechFieldDay staff, who always put on a great show 🎉

Not wanting to be "the enemy", I have decided to re-name AI Field Day #AIFD9 "Super Intelligence Field Day"! It's a bit short notice, but I'm sure everyone can adapt before Wednesday!

"The White House considers anyone that uses the term, "Artificial Intelligence," as opposed to the highly accepted new and more accurate term, "Super Intelligence," THE ENEMY! President
DONALD J. TRUMP"

Here’s Cory Doctorow right here at the Hudson #Ohio library! It’s amazing to have a speaker like this in my little town and I sincerely thank him for coming and the Librarians for booking this!
