Correct me if I'm wrong, but if interest rates went up 10% tomorrow, housing prices would have to come down if people wanted to actually sell their homes.

If we’re being pedantic, it’s actually somewhere between 4 years and 2 days, to 5 years and 364 days, 2024 was a leap year. I sure don’t feel like I added anything to the discussion. Do you?

Sure, I agree with all that, well-said. “Dickhead, asshole, douchebag, fuckstain” are terms of endearment in some of my social circles. Context matters. Tone and body language are like 80%+ of in-person, verbal communication. We need to be

Prompt engineering isn’t hard to master, weeks to months tops. That is the point. LLMs are at the top of the s-curve. Assuming prompt engineering is hard, assuming that LLMs are going to continue to make any kind of substantial leap without

If you think I’m implying that, English must not be your first language or you’re being intentionally obtuse. Neither would surprise me. Google fu, before Google fucked everything up, was not hard to learn, and then plateaued. It’s not like

For whatever reason, mentioning keto or calories in, calories out around here is extremely unpopular. I have watched many people lose weight with one or both of these methods, naturally. I’ll never understand the pushback.
