    A somewhat useful list: https://github.com/cheahjs/free-llm-api-resources Note the caveat though: &amp;quot;This list explicitly excludes any services that are not legitimate (eg reverse engineers an existing chatbot).&amp;quot; I assume this is the reason they don&amp;#39;t list Ollama, though it&amp;#39;s not really clear. And of course Anathema is completely outside their wheelhouse.

    Some people probably wonder about my #Investing posts and why I do them. Well, I&amp;#39;m trying to get people interested in stocks. And the reason for that is very simple. Over long periods of time stocks outperform every other investment available to your average person. That&amp;#39;s why I post the daily stock market gyrations and how I performed relative to the major indexes, why I post the dividend champions list, and why I chime in on investing discussions. Now, while I personally d...

    Advancing stocks continued to lead declining stocks today 52.6% to 42.7%. The major indexes largely agreed as only the Dow lost ground today: DJIA -152.87 (-0.31%) S&amp;amp;P 500 +21.11 (+0.29%) NASDAQ +222.13 (+0.89%) Russell 2000 +12.92 (+0.46%) My portfolio &amp;quot;gained&amp;quot; 0.00% today, losing to everything but the Dow. But any gain, no matter how small, is better than a loss. #Investing

    Apparently hopes of peace talks in the middle east drove market optimism today. Allow me to remind folks that the light at the end of the tunnel may be an oncoming train.
