Can a Longshot Actually Win the World Cup? The... new 48-team format changes things a bit Upsides for longshots: ＞ Much easier to advance from the group stage (67% of teams progress instead of 50%) ＞There's now an extra knockout round (Round of 32) Downsides for actually winning the tournament: ＞ Any team now has to survive a brutal 8-match gauntlet instead of 7 ＞Top teams have far superior squad depth and experience to handle the insane schedule The expanded format will create more early upsets and drama in the groups and Round of 32, but it barely changes who ultimately lifts the trophy Historically, nearly 73% of all World Cup trophies belong to just 6 powerhouse nations sitting inside the current Top-8 on Polymarketshow more

Our World Cup 2026 content programme is here. From... now until July 23, the content we release on our podcast, articles and Patreon exclusive feed will be centred on the World Cup. As well as covering the history and heritage of the tournament, we've also explored themes of resistance, resilience and identity during this content programme. This is one of the most politically charged World Cup tournaments in history. Tragically, not everyone will be able to attend to support their nation. Some people may end up detained or worse. However, there is still a lot of joy to be found through this tournament, and diaspora communities will have a huge role to play in bringing that joy to the World Cup. We hope you enjoy the content we've created for this tournament. We kick things off today with our usual Monday podcast. Thank you to all the fantastic contributors who have taken part in this. The World Cup is just around the corner. Let's go 🏆show more

At Uber a big problem for design teams and... engineering teams was design source of truth. No one knew what the app truly looked like, so weekly a bunch of designers would get into a meeting room and check that the engineers correctly implemented the figma designs that they made Now with coding agents throughput of changes has increased an order of magnitude and it has become impossible to manually keep up. Here we used the Revyl CLI to create a flow of every state in the Uber design, by navigating our mobile use agent on an cloud iOS simulator. This is something that would have taken a team of designers tens of hours to recreate manually; All done in less than an hour asynchronously with a simple prompt. Enable your team to know what your users are actually seeing and empower coding agents to give your users a delightful experience without any blindspots Get started with our new free trial and create a map for your own app 🗺️show more

hot take? #VCTAmericas 1) this is incredibly disrespectful to... the sport, to the viewers, to the opponents and to the tournament organisers and should not be allowed by RIOT in the first place to jump off like that to deny a round. Maybe it is actually not allowed and if thats the case, ENVY should be fined. But if this is actually allowed or wasnt predicted by RIOT in the first place, thats on RIOT. I spoke about this potential problem out loud on day 1 of Abyss release. 2) i understand that this negates C9 of getting 1000 creds and 5 orbs for killing the ENVY players BUT i think this is literally trolling/throwing a round by ENVY. In VALORANT every round is winnable, every round is doable and you just robbed your team off that chance. Not only that, LEV didnt have to use a single utility piece to win this round which saves shitton of cash, and didnt have to rebuy any shields. If you wanted to troll this round, ENVY, at least do it properly and jump off after your opponents planted, so you would waste more time and make them use utilshow more
