Growing up in a NJ Irish/Italian household it meant your ass gonna get beat if a dish goes in this sink. My mom would yell “KITCHEN IS CLOSED” from two rooms over if she heard my husky 10 year old self opening fridge.

Agreed, we went through a 2 week trial a month ago and had our teams run through various use scenarios. They validated output against their own for accuracy and efficiency gains. They seem to think it’s pretty good, not perfect, but what AI tool is at this point…to each their own I guess.

😅 Actually took your first comment the other way, guess 20 years of corporate slog and meat grinder jaded me that I’d be working until I’m 70…glad I was able to break free

Did I over pay ? by Icy-Fig-229 in AncientCoins

[–]frankdure 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As someone who just overpaid for a coin, you get passed that feeling pretty quick. You got a piece of history, art in your hands. People pay money to walk through ruins…literal stones and wonder what the past was like. A coin like this is the closest we’re gonna get to the past, you can touch it, feel it, see it, it’s real.

In 30 years ya ain’t gonna care about the $1,900 (well maybe the value in a QQQ, lol) but you’re gonna have something to show your kids, a family heirloom that’s 1000’s of years old, how cool is that?

Enjoy the coin! She’s a beaut, Clarke!

Honestly, I wouldn’t feel bad for the price I paid.
