Dimensional funds have a type of index factor funds that roughly track these indices without strict adherence to S&Ps inclusion rules. That's the only one I'm aware of.

FYI that prominent link to your sharpee repo on GitHub 404s

I think it's safe to assume that people close to retirement have existing appreciating assets contributing to that total savings amount.

Is that no longer the case, or am I misunderstanding the operational costs displayed?

Opus: 521k input tokens; 12k out

Grok: 443k input tokens; 57k out

Gemini: 677k input tokens; 7k out

OAI: 543k input tokens; 17k out

Gemini appears to use by far the least amount of reasoning tokens, assuming they're included in the output counts.

How many rooms in your home though? These are crucial details.

I have a feeling you are using SOTA models at work and aren't used to just how cheap the non-Anthropic/Google/OAI options are these days. GLM's coding subscription is like $6/month if you buy a full year.

Reading the parent comment, I assume their use of 'freedom' more closely aligns with being undisturbed by a government.

It's a very common usage in America, focusing on "Freedom from X" rather than "Freedom to do Y", the latter of which often needs some sort of societal protection, most often provided by said government.

I use monarch and I've been happy enough with it. Would probably consider self-hosting with actual in the future, but I wanted an easy on-ramp for myself to actually get in the habit of budgeting.

Hi, that's not why people go to Delaware for those kind of purchases. It's the lack of tax.

The actual MSRP from PA wine and liquor stores is very competitive, since it's one of the largest single buyers of alcohol. Selection could be better though.

I don't think this is an accurate comparison. Working on open source software means you are contributing to that software, which yes may be used by for profit companies. This is more analogous to contributing to Wikipedia, which is then used by for profit companies like Grok, than it is contributing to Grok products directly, which cannot be leveraged by other tools in this ecosystem (afaik).

Small counterpoint but there are also 2 new players putting out SOTA open source models (Moonshots Kimi and zhipus GLM) so we're still seeing the same number of models overall, just via newer entrants.

> GLM-4.6 is great value but still not solid enough for tool calls, not that fast, etc. so if you can afford something more reliable I'd go for that, but encouraging.

Funny you should say that, because while it is a large model the GLM 4.5 is at the top of Berkley's Function Calling Leaderboard [0] and has one of the lowest costs. Can't comment on speed compared to those smaller models, but the Air version of 4.5 is similarly highly-ranked.

I didn't really follow the premise of the original video. Can you find identical food at various locations throughout the country? Yes. Are you required to eat this same food? No!

You could likely order the things that local restaurant/pub does make in house, rather than go for the variety of items on the menu that are simply there to appease customers' fancies.

Or you could go to a proper restaurant that makes the majority of their dishes in house. You have this choice.

If Sysco and these other companies didn't offer pre-made jalepeno poppers and the like, they simply wouldn't be on the menu in the first place.

Where do you think pensions were storing the money?

These are two sides of the same coin.

yep. This feels like a feature to me, not a bug. As a mostly reader/follower on these platforms I'm surprised when others compare their engagement metrics, rather than the quality of the engagement on these platforms. Obviously their goals and incentives are different than mine, but the more time I spend on the internet the more I value the smaller communities due to the correlation with quality and topical focus.

geeze we sure strayed far from "legalize comedy" pretty quickly. Here we are, discussing quips like they're a military operation.

> Paraphrased, Kimmel said that the killer was a republican.

He literally didn't though? Why does this mistake keep being made. Kimmel made 0 assertions about the shooter. He did make assertions about the President and his conduct, however.

Best not to speculate on motivations at this time, IMO. It's the most likely scenario given his notoriety, but we don't know anything yet and that's a slippery slope.

this is such a terribly bad-faith interpretation of the parent's comment to the point I'm assuming you replied to the wrong one?

He sounds like the fictional 'Bob' and likely made out like a bandit, assuming he held.
