Context windows are continuing to grow. Yes I would put almost all text columns into a vector store. However I am sacrificing flexibility. It's much much easier to administer a database sitting in context memory as shown by the below v

Vancouver is just as gorgeous as SF and much safer (downtown was kinda sketch years ago) but kinda tech hostile All of the west coast suffers from high structural costs. People really only endure SF for the venture money and trips to GG bri

NOLA used to be quite terrifying. Yet downtown French Qtr is a different world now. You can walk Warehouse to Frenchmen Marigny 3am just fine. Canal St. is really the only dicey area Both Manhattan and SF are now more dangerous than downtow

In fairness, downtown SF SJ and Oakland were always a tad dicey even back in dot com days so most startups preferred to be in more expensive PA MV Even East PA was the hood. Oakland was famous for riots SF governance has always been terribl
