@bcherny 4.7 is completely unusable for me. Completely ignores the specifics of my environment documented in detail in Claude.md, makes weird speculations, tells me it can't do things 4.6 has been doing forever. Massive backslide in usability.

@AmtrakAlerts Is this actually canceled? I just spoke with an agent on that said there were no issues and this was just the bus replacement that was previously communicated

[Nate LaFerle @nlaferle]

@votehub Can we get one of these for Michigan?

[Nate LaFerle @nlaferle]

@Nnesha___ @jamesxosullivan @LynnBecker Truly didn’t know! I deleted the reply.

[Nate LaFerle @nlaferle]

@Joeweekender @LynnBecker Good to know actually!

[Matt Popovich @mpopv]

you need to be 737 maxxing. you need to have a few screws loose. you need to be dramatically throwing open doors to feel the fresh air outside. you need to be keeping yourself grounded. you need to be lighting yourself on fire occasionally just to feel something.

@ElieMesso @SawyerMerritt NACS doesn’t support three-phase power so it’s basically a non-starter in the EU.

@marshal Ann Arbor, MI. Usually 25 mins to major hub airport. Called “treetown” for a reason. Decent tech community. Beautiful immediate natural surroundings, plus access to west and northern Michigan for beaches & dunes etc. plus easy access to Detroit and Chicago.

@mikekarnj Didn’t @seandsweeney just post this?

[Sean Sweeney @seandsweeney]

I have the urge to buy a warehouse.

Create a country club for those of us that aren’t traditional country club people.

Put in:

- 2-3 cool small food options
- smoothie bar
- saunas
- cold plunge
- bar
- library
- co-working space
- kids play area with supervision

Am I nuts?

Raising a family in a college town is underrated.

- educated and diverse population
- usually a sneaky good food scene
- better cost of living than major metros
- generally great public schools
- culture/arts/music/sporting events
- stable local economy (university is often the largest employer and isn't going anywhere)
- big enough to not be bored, but small enough to avoid the hassle of large cities (e.g. traffic)

Some examples I love:

Ann Arbor, MI (biased bc I'm raising my family here)
Madison, WI
Athens, GA
Chapel Hill, NC
Charlottesville, VA
Ithica, NY
Ames, IA
Corvallis or Eugene, OR

What towns would you add to the list?

Detroit, a city plagued by absentee speculators sitting on vacant land and overtaxed residents, could be the first to embrace a land value tax. If they can pull it off, it could be a model of public finance reform in the Rust Belt. https://t.co/YfFgRFzQkD

I believe we'll see (perhaps large) population shifts towards the Midwest over the next 25-50+ years.

Michigan is one of the most slept on states in the country. No place is perfect, but:

- Michigan is one of the most unique places on Earth - surrounded by 20% (!) of the World's fresh water
- Virtually no natural disaster risk (fires, hurricanes, earthquakes, etc.)
- Reasonable cost of living (at least currently)
- Unreal natural beauty all over the state
- Great cities and towns - including wonderful places such as Grand Rapids, Traverse City, and Ann Arbor. And despite being a national punching bag, most of metro Detroit is much nicer than most realize.

Yes, winters can be tough. But nobody will ever convince me it's worse than AZ or TX summers.

If nothing else, my fundamental long term belief in Michigan comes down to freshwater access.

Climate change is real.

Places in the SW US like SoCal, Vegas, Arizona (most of which are awesome and I genuinely enjoy visiting btw) who all rely on the Colorado River - is that really a sustainable long term plan? Maybe. But it'd make me nervous.

Hopefully humanity eventually figures out desalination at scale.

But just as its been since the beginning of time - people by scarce and important resources (such as fresh water!) will always have a leg up.

@aargreen @annarbornews They would be, but the restrictions around them are a poison pill that keeps them from being built here.

@dreikov @TheFigen_ There is a camera array behind the rear view mirrors. Their view is cleared by the wipers.

University of Michigan will be the first major university to offer a custom AI platform for its entire community. Just in time for the start of the fall semester, ITS is releasing a suite of custom GenAI tools unlike anything currently offered in higher education, providing our users with AI tools that firmly emphasize the importance of equity, accessibility, and privacy. Thanks to VP Ravi Pendse and team for their leadership.

@TravisRadina @DTE_Energy @freep @MLive @detnews @ayesha4a2 @MichiganPSC Thanks for your help, @TravisRadina. Hopefully this gets addressed soon.

[Nate LaFerle @nlaferle]

@DTE_Energy I already did and you told me you had no information, as screenshotted.

PEOPLE OF THE EARTH. Figured out how to ask natural language questions of current financial data and get back a natural language response...with correct/relevant numbers! 🤯💰✨

So. Freaking. Cool.

1. Send database schema along with the question and relevant scope/parameters to GPT.
2. GPT returns SQL query.
3. Run SQL query on your data.
4. Take returned data and pass it in along with the original question.
5. GPT returns natural language answer with relevant data!

Original Question: What was the highest price of Apple's stock over the past decade and how does it compare to Tesla's highest stock price? And on what date were those highest prices?

Final Answer: The highest price of Apple's stock over the past decade was $182.94 on January 4, 2022, while Tesla's highest stock price was $414.50 on November 4, 2021.
