quite amusing today's top cricket story is not The Hundred, but an alleged cheating scandal featuring the Saltburn-by-the-Sea second XI. Last summer I had the privilege of watching Saltburn play. High athletic standards among the collection of portly gentleman were notable by their absence.

I don't understand how it can be that the Commonwealth Games starts tomorrow in Glasgow and yet we can't watch it live on the BBC, ITV or C4. available only on TNT Sports and HBO Max for paying subscribers. Absolute madness.

James McLeod@jamespmcleod.ca · 2w agoIt's safe to assume that all major LLMs are scraping Bluesky data to train future models. As an open protocol, Bluesky is one of the few sources of fresh human-generated content that anybody can gobble up. So all this is probably going in the models.
