Oct-30-25 Chessgames - Sports    WannaBe: FOX just re-showed that stat (I mentioned a few days ago) that team that sweeps do not do well in WS. Here's a memo to self, do same research into NBA & NHL where a team sweeps the conference final and the subsequent outcome in the championship series. Gonna be rockin' in TOR on ...      Oct-28-25 Chessgames - Politics    WannaBe: Just raise the minimum wage to $100/hour end hunger, homelessness, and people being poor. Everyone will have plenty of money to buy homes and feed family. I'm ready to receive my Nobel Prize in Economics in 2026. If that doesn't fix the problem, raise min wage to $1,000/hour.      Oct-25-25 United States Women's Championship (2025)    WannaBe: Well, my "Sister" from a different family tree finished with a respectable +3 -2 =6 Better luck next time Jennifer.      Oct-22-25 WannaBe chessforum   WannaBe: Yep...

Nov-03-23    WannaBe: Wow!!! FTX/SBF guilty on <ALL COUNTS> https://finance.yahoo.com/news/sam-... Nov-10-23    WannaBe: I'm giving "A Haunting in Venice" A+ Loved the witty dialogs. That little boy is great. Nov-11-23    WannaBe: Went to "Planes of Fame" in Chino yesterday, below is my photo dump (meaning, no clean-up, removal of fuzzy/spotty pictures, just copied/pasted my camera's storage card on Google Photo Album) And I got to get inside of B-17 "Kismet" (Photos towards the bottom of the page/link) bonk'd me head twice while inside, standing up straight in there is definitely not recommended. https://photos.app.goo.gl/3M7xSKtkv... Nov-11-23    stone free or die: Ever see this B-17 (I think) scene before? https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_... . Nov-11-23    WannaBe: <SFoD> Fo'Sur' look like B-17, the one museum have is model 'G', not sure what was used in the movie. If you zoom in (and is able to read the description), that museum one never fought in the war, came off the assembly line too late. It was built in Long Beach, CA where I pretty much grew up meself. Quick trivia: Spitfire underwent 23 different modifications, so the last one was model 24. =)) Nov-12-23    stone free or die: While I most associate Boeing with Washington state, I see they still have facilities in Long Beach, despite some recent transfers (or buyouts).

Still waiting for later this year for FTX/SBF sentencing... Hehehehe Dec-25-23    WannaBe: Merry Christmas🎅🎄🎁!!! Dec-25-23    Penguincw: Merry Christmas🎅🎄🎁!!! <WannaBe>. Jan-02-24    WannaBe: So, today I found out why it's called Six Flags (the amusement park)... The very first one, was in Texas, and the (current) state have had six different flags: Spanish French Mexico Texas - Independent Country Confederate - US Civil War USA So the next time you are at a Six Flags amusement park, you can explain the name. Jan-08-24    Benzol: How's me favourite Wabbit ? Jan-11-24    technical draw: <WannaBe> About Moravec's paradox. First off I'm not well versed in AI so I have difficulty trying to assess if MP is in effect a paradox. It doesn't seem to have the classical characteristics of a paradox (linguistic or mathematical). Also this statement is suspect: <contrary to traditional assumptions, reasoning requires very little computation> Who says? If you start out saying that reasoning requires very little computation then no further analysis is necessary since you have already reached a conclusion. Also: <Similarly, Minsky emphasized that the most difficult human skills to reverse engineer are those that are below the level of conscious awareness.> Again this Minsky guy has made a statement that already has a conclusion. So where is the paradox? I read the article up and down and sideways and it sounded like that old cigarette commercial that said "the smoke travels, over, under, and through the tobacco". Um, like where else is it going to go? I think this so called paradox is just belaboring the obvious and since I'm not into AI I'll give it a pass. Thanks for leading me to it anyway. Cheers. Jan-30-24    WannaBe: I don't often agree with Rat, but today, I do. https://www.gocomics.com/pearlsbefo... Jan-31-24    OhioChessFan: I agree with Rat pretty much 100% of the time.
