    • The ach from ally is on hold until tomorrow.
    • Urthbox charged me another $90 for another 3 month subscription of snacks delivered to Eric’s house. I never wanted this, it was a one-time gift. Their fine print is bullshit and I emailed their support team.
    • cprofile is a good profiler for python. @profile is a built-in decorator for memory profiling.
    • numpy.ndarray can only hold one datatype, so it’s mucccccch more efficient than the generic python list (which has to allocate for flexible data types in every element).
    • index.js are kinda like __init__.py files in python, spread through the project dirs to organize code and import/export availability within subpackages.
    • In js, you can specify one and only one export as “default”, which means that imports can call it namelessly. Otherwise, you name your exports and import them by name.

      • While most are scared of technology like this, I’m a huge proponent. The more data, the better, even if private. This is an accountability problem, not a morality problem. 23andme genetic data, facial data, crime data, advertising data – take it all. I don’t have anything to hide, and data connections enable so many useful functionalities.
    • MERN:
      • High level index.js which does the ReactDOM.render().
      • That imports components from other clean files, like a jsx that defines a Switch and a Route inside of a class or hook and exports it.
    • AmEx anticipates vacations based on travel purchases, inferring that you’ll be away during certain dates and allowing transactions while there. Pretty cool, and not that hard.
