Josh Jacobs Pleads No Contest to Battery Charge, Faces NFL Review
x/josh-jacobs
— Sep 10, 2026
Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs faces two misdemeanor charges from a May incident and has appeared in multiple court sessions, with one report noting a no-contest plea as the legal process moves forward. He remains on the NFL’s commissioner’s exempt list and could face a multi-game, unpaid suspension before potentially returning to play ahead of the Packers’ season opener against the Minnesota Vikings.

A multi-game ban would hurt the Packers right before they play the Vikings. Jacobs should have handled whatever happened back in May better.
Brewers Near Division Clinch Entering Pirates Series
x/jacob-misiorowski
— 3d
"The Milwaukee Brewers, leading the NL Central late in the season, travel to Pittsburgh for a pivotal three-game series as they push to clinch the division and seek the top NL seed, powered by ace Jacob Misiorowski who has been dominant this year. The Pirates, with slim playoff chances and a bullpen-by-committee approach, look to finish strong as scheduling uncertainties loom and the Brewers’ recent form raises the stakes for the playoff race."

— Aug 27, 2026
Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs has been formally charged in Brown County with two misdemeanors—battery and criminal damage to property—arising from a May disturbance, with an initial court appearance set for November 17; prosecutors have not pursued felony counts, and the team has prepared for all outcomes, including the possibility of discipline. Reports note Jacobs’ arrest followed a domestic disturbance call and that the misdemeanor charges align with ongoing uncertainty about his status for the 2026 season.

AI Executives Urge Slower Frontier Development
x/openai
— Sep 11, 2026
Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei argues for deliberately slowing the pace of AI capability upgrades to allow more time for alignment and safety, warning that rapid progress and incidents like the OpenAI-Hugging Face breach could enable catastrophic, botnet-enabled harm within a year or so. Other industry leaders and researchers, including OpenAI’s Sam Altman and voices like Anton Osika and Jacob Coxon, echo calls for caution, coordination, and possible pauses to address safety and governance, amid ongoing debates about the feasibility and timing of a broader slowdown.

If breaches like the one mentioned can already happen we really do need better coordination across companies before scaling up more.
