It wasn’t $500 when I got it. I think it was $350 at the time. Although it might have just been on sale.

This is the one I have. I take the batteries out of it after each use, otherwise it drains it. That’s my only complaint with it.
I inherited an old Delta table saw from the 80’s. The fence on it was in horrible shape when I got it. After a ton of research, I ended up getting the Shop Fox W2005 Classic Fence with Standard Rails.
The fence itself is great. Slides easy. Locks in place and stays there. Easy to adjust.
It took a little time to get aligned properly. After messing with it for a day or so, I bought guage to ensure it is 1/128" off square from the miter slot. Once it was set, I’ve had no issues.
Overall, I highly recommend it, if it is in your budget.

More of a physical representation of a debt, but in essence, yes.
I buy a rock from you with $5, that $5 represents the debt I incurred by taking the rock. You have the $5 that you can use to barter for something else. At the end of the day, the government is backing my debt for the rock with a physical piece of paper. Except it isn’t physical anymore now that everything is digital. So, I suppose its more like the bits of data that represent the physical money that represents the debt for the rock is backed by the government. Although that money is actually physical at the bank that conducted the electronic transaction, and they borrowed that physical money from the fed. But even then, it is inflated since not every dollar a bank transacts with, is backed by something physical since the reserve ratio is not 100%. And that is when it starts becoming confusing.
I agree that it isn’t as good as it was. The last two updates have definitely decreased its effectiveness for multiple things, not just dev. It is still my starting point when looking for something. It is just not as good as it used to be.
Obviously, you can’t take what it gives at face value, but you shouldn’t do that from SO either. In general, I see faster results using GPT than I do with Google and SO. You can also extend the responses with any customization or changes specific to what you are trying to do, where you can’t with SO.
I’m not saying SO is bad. Not by any stretch. I still use it a lot. It just isn’t my starting point anymore.
In general, If I need to cut off more than its capacity, I’m using a circular saw with a track or straight edge.
As for the price, I wasn’t aware it was so high. I paid $350 for it. I think it was a holiday sale or something like that.
