My problem with property tax is that (in the US) it creates a system by which areas with high property tax revenue (rich areas) recieive more money for schools. This is not bad on its face, but in the long term, it creates systems where poor neighborhoods have bad schools, can’t fund improvements, can’t attract good teachers, can’t attract residents, lose on tax revenue… and it cycles.

Hawaii has an interesting sysyem by which residents only pay tiny property taxes IF their primary residence is their only livable real estate.

This is so awesome. I this will be my light reading for the next week

It would have helped if I got her name right Andrea BoRman

Here’s a list of self-host/foss/Linux YouTubers. Check them out. I’ve learned SO much from them:

• Veronica Explains
• Network Chuck
• Jim’s Garage
• Andrea Borman
• Awesome Open Source
• Techno Tim

I can add links to each but searching should find them easily

I have this exact same setup. Open Web UI has more features than I’ve been able to use such as functions and pipelines.

I use it to share my LLMs across my network. It has really good user management so I can set up a user for my wife or brother in law and give them general use LLM while my dad and I can take advantage of Coding-tuned models.

The code formatting and code execution functions are great. It’s overall a great UI.

Ive used LLMs to rewrite code, help format PowerPoint slides, summarize my notes from work, create D&D characters, plan lessons, etc

Oh wow. Right in the feels. I extremely miss Craig Ferguson. He was such a breath of fresh air in the late night scene.

Anyway… Hot Ones on YouTube. Some quality interviews with celebrities
