This is a house, presumably close to a job. Not an optional night out. It’s by no means a “willing” buyer. Mostly a “I need this to survive” buyer.

Homeowners with this much gain based on artificial supply constraints should definitely feel bad.
I was told by a doctor that everything causes mtdna damage and it's sort of useless to define things in terms of that. Like saying because you have a skin condition like rashes that there is damage to the skin cells. Like yeah, of course there is.

Hi, my name is Rickan Li!

I have ~2 YoE in data-rich productions: two startups from proof-of-concept to MVP and production.

I'm experienced in delivering performant, forward-facing features along with implementing service architecture and impactful solutions. I am confident that my experience makes me a strong candidate for a Software Engineer role. I’m looking for an opportunity that allows me to make a tangible and significant impact, along with designing performant and extensible contributions to a core product.
They will lose to those that are profit focused as those companies will attract more investment and better quality employees. Not immediately, but they lose long term.

Same reason you can’t have a career without continuing to learn new stuff and upgrade credentials. Everyone else is doing it, so when it comes time to inevitably find a job again, it is easy to be behind.
The realtor we got was fantastic. She took care of everything, and we had through her a great loan company, and everything was just taken care of. Would not dream of buying or selling without an agent. It's just too much hassle, and I don't have the expertise
Maybe our new ex-airbnb Senator can help.
You bring a good point, but leveraging is absolutely required to make housing an even close to acceptable investment.

All the recurring and one time fees take away from the leverage.

Playing with the buy or rent calculator from the NYT shows you how leverage is an absolute necessity:

The sexual assault allegation is an interesting touch. They’re probably trying to get a viral social media outrage against NAR going but idk if enough X warriors know or care about NAR to make it a thing though. If Redfin can get it to stick then it will certainly cause NAR some pain so we’ll see.
Unless it were one of my only options, I would rather not. I know it’s slim i would personally be targeted but after hearing how Elon disrupted service for Ukraine during an operation, I would rather not put my towards someone like that.
This happened to me. I had a drastic reduction in VO2 max since taking them that has remained permanently.
Microsoft is still engaging in vendor lock-in, such as making it difficult to use Microsoft 365 on platforms other than Azure and Windows. In the open source community, Microsoft is also practicing the 3E strategy, such as implementing specific features in .NET only for Microsoft products. In essence, Microsoft is the same today as it was in the past.
Maybe then developers should be asking for the button to be re-designed, rather than the feature to be disabled?

Personally I make use of this feature a lot, it's one of the reasons I prefer firefox over chrome (though there's things to accomplish similar things on Chrome, but firefox native support is better... you even get some controls over the video on the pip window).
Nothing says you HAVE to pay 6%.

In at least most places you can submit the paperwork to your county/state recorder & transfer money between each other completely outside of "the system" for a few dollars. And/or hire your own title agent to facilitate and hold the money.

There's also nothing that says you have to pay each agent exactly 3%. Commissions are negotiable on both sides like anything else. Especially in this sort of situation where they're no shopping/showing and you're paying them just to perform the transaction.

2-2.5% each is routine in some markets and price points. I built our last couple houses on empty lots, found the lot on my own, and my agent was happy to shuffle some paper for a couple hours for 1% (several thousand dollars) and give me the other 2% at closing.

…and for the people who end up looking at dozens of houses before deciding, negotiating, losing an offer, rinse repeating, 3%/$hours_spent_on_you could be a pretty low hourly rate for them.
Further he argued why Bing should be the default, and even makes a pseudo business proposition of how they're prepared to lose $20B to harvest this data. Can't make this up.
> It's not hypocritical to believe something, but it is hypocritical to act in a way contrary to the belief you are espousing

That's not what's happening.

Tesla is taking subsidies because they are available, it would be a poor decision not to. Tesla could take a stand and not accept subsidies but then those subsidies will fall to their competitors and they will lose.

It's like believing the presidency should be decided by the popular vote but not campaigning in California or thinking healthcare should be free but paying for insurance.

One is a belief about how things should be and the other is a reaction to how things are.
The point is that math is not typically taught as just memorizing the schoolboy multiplication algorithm without being given an understanding that addition is commutative and what commutative means.
Because they're pushing stuff out that they don't have to carry? So it's like the get the thrust without the extra weight of the air?
ECE is stricter than DOT, although it has a couple of shortcomings.

>Those rates also allow me to make thousands per month, risk-free, in interest off my savings.

If you are in a state with income tax, I would take a minute, even immeasurable, increase in risk by putting it in US Treasuries (like TTTXX at Merrill), resulting in no state income taxes for 95%+ of your return. In case you already are not doing that.
eligible for overtime though, adds up and on the plus side you never get to be at home when you do that to worry about what your home is like. halfway sarcastic.
Mine has increased in the neighborhood, maybe around 40%. I have no desire to sell until my boys move out in about 6-7 years.
That "reality check" will never come for some people because they will get government jobs where the hiring process depends more on ideology than competence. For example, do you believe that working in the San Francisco Department of Homelessness and Supportive Housing requires thinking logically?
> I’ve never bought the argument by hedge funds that “we add valuable liquidity to the market (*for only a few billion dollars in fees!)”, but perhaps that argument might hold water for real estate.

I think you might be mixing up hedge funds and market makers (commonly knows as high frequency traders)?
I live in a major US city and I refuse to use Apple maps for navigation. In the past year, I've tried it every so often and it has taken me to the wrong place, on strange, longer routes, and tried to take me through roads that don't even exist. The traffic information is also terribly inaccurate.

So no, maybe in some cities it works, but its still a pile a garbage compared to Google maps.

Non-callable, can be refinanced at buyer's discretion, broadly standardized so there's a competitive mortgage originator/refinancing market, and can be borrowed against by using that same market (HELOC or home equity loan)

There's a lot of mortgage features that make it attractive to "I'm not an Accredited Investor" types.
> I dont want it to be this way

Okay, but the smug tone of your prior post kinda contradicts that, which is why me and others responded the way they did.

Hard to know how to have the conversation when you're responding like a completely different person from one comment to another really. Weird.
PostHog Company Handbook
This handbook simply explains how we work. It has been one of the most important things we've ever made.
Multifamily is being built like crazy.

Just got back from Sacramento and they were building units for as far as I could see. Same thing in many markets.

Go back and read articles from 2006. They said housing prices were fine because we were lacking supply and had underbuilt for years. Then suddenly we had too many houses. Affordability matters appreciation expectations matter. Credit matters. Employment matters.

People will always sell. They can only hold off so long.
Opportunity costs are real.

Cartel is the correct word. As an individual consumer, I wanted access to MLS data and was willing to pay a monthly access fee. But they wouldn't provide such access and want you to use the cartel member, real estate agent.
As far as I know, the authorities have done... nothing? I don't know that I would want them to do anything either, I suspect like stink bugs before them, they will enjoy a season or 2 of rapid population growth followed by a decreased population in subsequent years as they acclimate to their new environment.

Yeah, paying a lawyer and their associated paralegals for 2-4 hours of work is easily worth the low four figure rate.

Civil society was founded on, and still depends on, public trials and public laws. Since Hammurabi. That has nothing to do with "ubiquitous surveillance", it is the most important and basic record keeping.

It is up then to each person reading the records to decide if a crime is old enough or unimportant enough to not matter. That should not be the decision of internet censors or courts who want to sweep their traces under the rug. Or criminals wanting to do that.

If most people think that drug use is not something a person should be trialed for, then the laws need to be changed. Censoring doesn't remove the fact. It just removes discourse to the realm of gossip.
We didn’t market it. My found our current house through a friend. The wife of the couple that owned the house and my wife hit it off. They sold the house to use at well below market rate (in fact, afterwards we got a letter from the county tax office basically asking “uh… you bought this house well below the market rate… how did that happen?”). We figured out how much we needed to sell our old house for everything to work out. We told friends that we were looking for a buyer for our house and someone had a coworker that was interested. They came and looked at it and bought it for what we wanted. Everyone was happy at the end of the day.

Probably lower quality than the Narrative Clip but I think somewhat smaller and lighter weight. Don't remember if it captures audio. It normally requires tapping on it to make it record a video clip or photo, but it can record time lapses as well. The Windows software for it is very clunky.
there are hardly any publicly traded AI companies or highly valued ones, compared to the multitude of tech companies and crypto companies. Crypto is way worse because average people lose money, not just institutional investors. AI companies make actual revenues from business activity, compared to crypto, which is just speculation mostly.
Are you suggesting that the publicly traded, profit maximizing Zillow would suggest prices that are good for buyers rather than use their position in the market to control the price?
after all, it is trained on data generated by humans.

would this extrapolate to the AI being evil like humans, or good natured like humans? a fascinating philosophical debate will unfold during our (hopefully complete) lifetimes

> leverage is an absolute necessity

Yes, in more ways than one. To juice returns, sure. But the main reason people lever into real estate is because they don't have the cash to buy. So most homebuyers enter into a favorable high-leverage asset whose gains are given preferred tax treatment.

Discussing residential RE as if leverage is optional is not useful.
I think you mean the NAR, and the history of it is they didn't have an easy way to contract between agents. The MLS was created to solve the problem. Now it's an anti-competitive monopoly pyramid scheme and ripe for disruption.
7 figures?! Uh… not many houses around here go for seven figures.
Unexpected twist. Suspense of belief.
God, NAR is such a cartel I'm so surprised they haven't been slapped down already. My theory is that, in many places, real estate agent is one of the last decent viable jobs left for a huge swath of people (and I say this generally despising real estate agents, but I've had the fortune of working with a few gems), so the legal system is wary of going after them.

In 2005 NAR got their friends in the TX legislature to pass a law limiting what discount brokers could do - regulatory capture at its finest, and most blatant: https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=496379.... IIRC the feds actually sued to overturn this law on antitrust grounds. I think they were successful but using Google to search for non-current events can be extremely painful so I gave up.
Again, if they sell ... my house has doubled in value ... its still the same house I bought. I would only realize some gain if I put it on the market. What it is now is just another house not for sale and I happen to live in it. This is the same uneducated statement people make about prop 13 in California ... 'oh your house is worth a million so youre a millionaire' ... oh?
"Large Language models understand" could be worthy of 100s of other papers by itself. What led to such a claim in the article?
Precious metal Rolexes can cost north of $30k
Is that the objective? Is there actually even an objective at this point?

I don't know anyone in the field that expected training an LLM to autocomplete sentences would have led to being able to explain why a joke it had never seen before was funny.

It seems like objectives have gone out the window and we're now at a point where billion dollar companies are frantically throwing everything at the wall to see what sticks before their competitors do, with what sticks frequently being counterintuitive to prior predictions or out of scope from initial intentions.

If a LLM can cure cancer by being able to analyze connections between advances across the last decade of published research more successfully than human brains limited by the rule of seven plus or minus two, would a continued failure to conform to prompt specifications still effectively be a failure?

Maybe early computer scientists overemphasized the role of cold logic in intelligence and there's greater strides in the epiphany of a shower thought or Feynman's "thinking about twelve problems concurrently" with the next leaps in progress involving further distancing models from constraints.

I think we'd be wise to broadly toss out everything we thought we'd know about AI as a philosophical domain based on past theorizing and consider what's emerged over the past 36 months with fresh eyes and consideration.

And I don't see greater determinism or perfect bounds as being where this goes, particularly given the potential hardware shift to optoelectronic neural networks where arguably going all in on black boxes and stochastic results has actual physical advantages.
>As a buyer I got an excellent rate from their recommended lender

No you didn’t, they suckered you on a good rate and screwed you with stealth fees on closing costs.

With a few hours of hunting I saved $50k, beating their rate and cash to close. “Preferred lenders” are almost always a scam, but as always DYOR
Right, and that's what the apple watch is, a disposable consumer electronic. They shouldn't have made anything like this.
It’s not for people that have access to cable internet (or better).
The "you can make more money renting and investing" crowd should consider my remarks smug. People too poor to afford homes who are now cut off from doing so for probably the next half decade, mainly because central banks would perfer they stave than asset prices fall, should probably riot.
