This kills the OpenAI doesn't it? Im out at town at the moment so i cant easily check, I seem to recall that a large part of their existing investment rounds convert to debt if they can't reorganize.

It's kind of messed up that we got treacherous "goodlife" before we got Berserkers.

Looks like a local boy did good.

I linked the /r/nashville post since it has a good description of the website. Users can see a history of rent prices for a given property and its neighbors, which gives some leverage in negotiations. For more context, local rent prices are down 6% from highs.

I'm curious to see if it takes off, and how robust it is against adversarial tactics like bogus reports and nuisance lawsuits.

EDIT: Fixed "Blocked" issue by linking to archive

John Mulaney gets paid by prompt fondlers to tell jokes at a party. He spends 45 minutes telling them that they are idiots, which is nice.
