I think I would prefer more accountability, if a private firm can do that, than I see no issue.

The direction of the 10Y is what people should care about as this a proxy for mortgage rates.

The current direction is not going where consumers would want.

I think there is a bigger issue here.

Charging people for their fundamental rights.

It happens in many different ways. Look at all these people that just want to live and they can't even do that without having to pay to exists.

It is getting to be like that movie "In Time" where there is a clock you have to keep funding or you expire.

I noticed the new GPT 5.6 models both regular and Pro are priced the same for input and output token costs. Is this right?

One of my best use cases for the short duration I have fable is to use it to create the plan and acceptance test files then use GPT 5.5 Pro to do an adversarial review on the plan then feed that feedback into fable to fix the plan.

I like the analog method of writing notes in my notebook. My writing is pretty clean, so if I need it digital, I snap a photo and ask AI to OCR it to text.

I am guessing from the TOC that they are using pandas. My team quickly ran into memory spikes when multiple programs using pandas would run. We have since migrated to using ibis with a duckdb backend to smooth out the memory spikes.

tmaly — Thu, 25 Jun 2026 21:09:55 +0000

I already enrolled in this extended update, so I am happy that I get some additional time.

The big issue is that my bios doesn't have a way to switch to what is needed to meet Windows 11 requirements, and I would have to wipe my machine.

I was looking for all these hacks, but I need to use my machine for work so I have to stay on Windows 10 for now.

If you look at the amount of money created since Covid, this explains a lot of this increase in asset prices.

But beyond that, interest rates are a big driver of what people can afford for a monthly mortgage. These rates may come down a little. However, the FED facility that was creating sub 3% rates was likely a once in a lifetime opportunity.

that is open to debate. Any commercial activity with a sanctioned entity has a pretty broad interpretation. Companies might not want to take the chance even if they are "still allowed".
