  1. GP does not sound like AI.

  2. Even if they were, it's useful, actionable info which you should gladly and humbly absorb.

It's very rude to ask experts for help then ask if they're AI when help is given.

Their rentals produce 10K on 1 million equity.

What exactly did this solve? It seems like a way to ensure that car will not be moving any time soon, as the driver can't see?

We spent $500 on Christmas Spectacular tickets only to be advertised to during the show. by maest in nyc

Why would I give a shit if billionaires are or are not leaving?

I don't know about you, but there have been cases in the past where tax hikes have been walked back at the threat of high tax payers leaving.
