   Columbia, MD was one of the earlier planned suburbs. Each neighborhood has a grocery store. Worth looking at.

   I bought the best printer on wire cutter a few years ago, it was an HP ink jet. That was the biggest piece of garbage I ever bought. It would refuse to print when it was low on ink. It would be low on some random color despite me printing

   Maybe we keep the fire codes but eliminate parking minimums and lot setbacks. Just a thought.

   It is government policy. Specifically, it is restrictive zoning. Landlords do not get to set prices to whatever they want, they set prices to what the market will pay. If rent has gone up faster than inflation it just means that demand has

   I have for programming searches. ChatGPT can give me things that would take 5+ minutes of searching to hone in on. Then again, I run an ad blocker so no loss for them.

   Wyze is honestly great. These cameras are a fraction of the price of everyone else. Their cloud service is a couple dollars a month per camera. I have 2 looking out my windows at the front door and car. I move those to watch the dog when sh

    I do think large tech companies do pretty well with customer data. As a former Googler I would be comfortable with my Gmail data residing in a foreign datacenter.

    What are your thoughts on fine tuning vs low rank adaptations?

    It is funny because people always pitch it in threads about investors. Investors are who will build more housing if zoning laws are changed. An LVT basically encourages investment in the land. I am in favor of this but it doesn't stick

    Housing is more or less maxed out with respect to zoning laws in a lot of places. Those come from the government. Rezone to allow higher density and people will build. It is functionally illegal to build more housing.

    It being illegal, due to restrictive zoning, for private parties to build at higher densities.

    >it seems the reason is mostly to cover mortgage + have income That isn't how rent works. It is a market and buyers won't just pay any price the landlord sets. If prices went up, it means people were willing to pay those prices

    That would be so perverse if the government gave itself a monopoly on building housing. Just change zoning and make it legal for the private market to meet the need. Look at all the builders remedy projects in Santa Monica to see that this

    It's funny because LVT would reward multi family investment properties while raising taxes for single family home owners.

    There are three copyright issues here; datasets, model weights, and model outputs. Dataset copyright is pretty well defined and things can often be used under fair use. Fair use decisions are done with a four prong test and really decided b

    Yes, the model is available. However, it just released so no one has wrapped it in a plugin yet. I would expect that within the month there will be a nicely runnable local version, similar to llama2's wrappers.
