  I’ll never understand people that drive these entirely unnecessary abominations. Energy efficiency should be the motivation: which generally indicates smaller vehicles for most tasks. Most local, individual journeys should be made by eScooter these days, and a saloon car is already the best format for mid range family trips. SUVs are mostly a sign of sociopathic tendencies - a manifestation of the drivers need to be feel bigger, heavier, stronger than the next person. If you live in the country, fine, the rugged format makes sense. Drive one exclusively in the suburbs to pick your shopping up? The choice says something about you.

  If you think political stances can be adequately expressed along a single line, then you’re not much better I’m afraid. Engage with the nuance, friend, it’ll build understanding and be better for you.

  I think I found my jam! AnythingLLM self-hostable

  I really want to self host a system that will let me upload documents to be indexed by a vector DB, then run natural language queries using some kind of RAG approach. Classic problem: Having a software product and technical knowledge base and wanting quick answers to questions like “How should screen X behave if I am not a registered user?”.

  Closest I’ve found is LlamaIndex but this is still more of a foundation than a turn-key solution and right now I’m too time poor to do the assembly required… I realise I’m describing close-to-frontier tech, but anything more turn-key out there yet?

  Thanks for any suggestions!

  I suspect you’d find a cast iron correlation between dark triad personality traits and ownership of these things, at least in the city. There are so many reasons they’re a bad idea, but nearly all of those reasons require a shred of human decency and compassion to be recognised. It started with SUVs, but the F150 and Rams in the suburbs are plain ridiculous and a sure sign that their owner has some super unpleasant traits.
