• Did some searching for spicy food challenges. Almost all are way north. None in south bay really.
    • Supercontest.
      • Updated the text in the payment section of the rules.
      • Made the saturday email reminder 5pm, not 8pm.
      • New banner. Standard wednesday deployment.
      • Renamed all the files in the banner archive to include the buyer.
      • New rule – you can pay incrementing $5 to take down the previous banner and put yours instead?
        • Eg: Person 1 buys standard $5 banner. Person 2 hates it and pays $10 for their own banner. Person 1 gets their $5 returned. Person 3 hates them all and pays $15 for a third banner. Person 2 gets their $10 returned.
      • Committed lines, submitted picks.
      • Made the rankings grouped properly: https://gitlab.com/bmahlstedt-group/supercontest/issues/134.
      • Abstracted the ranking cell color to a common layer, and added it back to all-picks (now that ranks are tie-grouped accurately).
    • Final FF moves, got everybody except the defenses in both leagues (7/9 successful waivers).
    • Upgraded the citi account in mint.
    • Seaborn is a wrapper around matplotlib for visualization in python: https://seaborn.pydata.org/.
    • So many people took advantage of the robinhood glitch. This is bad. All the SEC and public attention…wouldn’t be surprised if they get temporarily disabled for an audit, or shut down completely as malpractice, or even long-term bankrupted due to poor reputation.
      • I’d have to rewrite all my logic around another broker’s API. Woohoo.
      • I’d also start having to pay commission again. Woohoo.
    • The glitch itself:
      • With gold, robinhood gives you some margin based on the cash in your account.
      • If you buy shares, and then sell them as options, robinhood would double count both in your total value, so it would allocate you more margin. That’s the bug.
      • You could repeat this until you had infinite money. People were posting screenshots of >1M positions, starting with 1k.
    • Went to Clippers/Bucks with Harner.
    • Ta-eem grill on Melrose. Mediterranean kosher. Delicious.
