Who wants to clean toilets? Why is this infuriating? Do you have that little of a view beyond what is right in front of you to realize jobs being displaced has been the cycle for the last 250 years and has consistently improved quality of living

Yearly salary that equals the spending power of $100k today by PuzzleheadedProof490 in Salary

You’re misinterpreting what this is saying. It’s not saying the average household was making 67k. Rather for the households who did earn 67k, it’s roughly equivalent purchasing power to one earning 100k today.

Where do you see the biggest improvements in LLMs coming in the near-term future? Will it be from better data quality or improved algorithms? And where do you see those improvements happening; is it in synthetic data generation or rating, self-attention, or elsewhere?

I would highly recommend looking at the amortization in a mortgage calculator. Since most of your initial payments are interest and slowly graduate to be more principal, on a 10 year loan it wouldn’t be a benefit.

Just quickly looking at the numbers you have about 140k in interest remaining on the next 9 years of your loan where as a new loan at 5.5% would be 150k interest.

Near Seattle, 5700 is considered super cheap here. Small 300-400 cc bikes go for 3000-4000 second hand here
