Our family is living on a four-bedroom boat while cruising the eastern seaboard for a year. It's not like the 'fabulous lifestyles of the rich and famous' that might come to mind.

, boats that size can range from $200,000 to over $1 million. The conversation has been edited for length and clarity.We're doing what's called the Great American Loop, which is a way to circumnavigate around the eastern seaboard of the US and Canada.

Because our boat is on the very biggest end of boats that are capable of doing this, we did the Erie Canal to the Oswego Canal up into Lake Ontario. Then you spend your summers in Canada and the Great Lakes. You can live on a boat at a marina, and you may not even move your boat. Those are called velcro boats or marina princesses — you're enjoying the experience of being on a boat on the water, but you're not really faced with the challenges of operating the boat.That being said, it's so amazing to pull in and to successfully dock, and there's such a feeling of celebration and joy.We've paid as little as 50 cents a foot on the rivers, and as much as $9 a foot up in New York.

Professor says high risk of GPT-4 being used for 'dangerous chemistry'A professor hired by OpenAI to test GPT-4 says there's 'significant risk' of people using it to do 'dangerous chemistry' Ok, but the level of skill that it currently requires to elicit those outcomes from it is about equal to the level of skill and knowledge it would take to just do that without it.
