Collusion doesn't just happen in smoke-filled rooms. It can be out in the open in earnings calls.

New research uses NLP on 300k+ transcripts to spot the language that firms use to coordinate publicly. Regulators can use this tool to detect anticompetitive behavior.

Demand for human-generated, trust-certified internet content is skyrocketing.

There is a major business opportunity, in *every* country, for media firms to meet this rising demand with innovation.

The real fun comes when you realize that your pairwise preference introduces cycles and then you have to manually assign points to the output CSV files to produce a consistent ranking yes I'm a well adjusted person why do you ask

I wonder if I Want You is my favorite Paul bass performance. The competition would be Mr. Kite but also he just plays insanely well through the whole medley

I was in a band in middle school and a teacher asked us if we could learn this song and improvise guitar solos over it. I really did not get the song until we played it and it was the most fun thing ever.

football is a business where you invest hundreds of millions into important assets and also tens of millions into a guy to operate those assets and then you sell the most productive assets that the guy happens to not like in order to keep the guy happy

This is also where I ended up. My god we were terrible but I’ve never been happier in 20 ish years as a Tottenham fan. Will I remember how little possession we had, in ten years? I doubt it.

Filipe Campante @filipecampante.bsky.social · May 21

Look, this Spurs-United final has indeed been bad, but I find it a bit grating to see how much the commentary here is focusing on that. I appreciate good football as much as anyone, but trophies are trophies, and they matter!
