I’ll skip it all and go find the greasiest burrito place I can find. I have a lot of problems with LA, but food being “mid” or healthy is not one of them.

It’s a steal! $1.75m for the commercial property and bar. I just hope whoever buys it doesn’t change a thing.

Brings back so many memories of being home over the summer as a kid and getting so excited about world’s strongest man competitions. The best.

Yea, not excusing Nate’s original message. It was completely unnecessarily confrontational. My point is that there are a lot of awesome AI tools out there, but they often haven’t done a good job of describing what they’re for. ChatGPT is amazing for contract review. Not great for data. Etc.

Also, there’s a bit of a misconception about ChatGPT. It’s not search and not really meant to look up those kinds of facts (not that it shouldn’t do better with them…). Try Perplexity instead for searching.

I’m always surprised when people post these screenshots. I rarely have ChatGPT have these issues. This is the answer I get.

Thanks, certainly matches the eye test. Anyone else on the Cal team worth watching?

Even though Cal got their asses beat in 2006, the trip to Knoxville couldn’t have been nicer. Great people, great tailgating, great whiskey, great hospital. Yes, the last two are connected.

Beating a dead horse at this point, but the store they’re closing in Oakland was terrible. Bad lay out, bad selection of products, and a terrible parking situation. Used to drive out of my way to go to the one in Emeryville instead. That doesn’t make for a good story, but it’s the truth.

My boss gave me two books that I recently finished. Both have had a profound impact on me:
1. Several Short Sentences About Writing by Klinkenborg. Changed how I write.
2. On the Shortness of Life by Seneca. Changed how I view my time and has given me a more positive outlook. Highly recommend both.

I worked at Tesla some years ago and we had people who would monitor Twitter at the time for any time upset customers Tweeted at him. Even back then it was the fastest way for anyone to get his attention.
