- Bloomberg Opinion pieces across the board need to hop off Elon. Matt Levine. Every single day. Are you becoming the tabloid of financial news? Cover prominent content that affects my portfolio, not my yearbook.
- Confirmed the ETH staking yield comparisons. Lido’s stETH will increase in quantity if held. Current APY is 3.9% (set by Lido, the liquid staker). If you deposit into a vault on yearn (like Curve stETH), you don’t get double yield. You get the yield of the vault only (which is 6.23% rn). You don’t get the stETH rewards, since you’re not holding stETH. It’s nonrehypothecable (just wanted to use that ridiculous word).
- Renewed USPS digital signature.
- Aquarium.
- Dremeled out the autofeeder circle into an ellipse so all droppings pass through rather than accumulating on the plastic aquarium lid.
- Providing my own rodi saltwater saves a little over $100 per maintenance visit. Will do in future. Providing my own poly, carbon, and sock filters saves a few bucks on each too.
- Ordered pink and purple (each individually with 7 species) coralline algae in a bottle.
- Cleaned sump with the vacuum myself. Manhattan aquariums charges the full $150 for this service. Bought powerhead (1050gph) to circulate sump and not let detritus settle. This is not just good for cleanup: improves the heater, return pump, supplements, probe readings, etc.
- Charged the old ducati battery fully and reinstalled on the bike. Successful ignition.
- Attached new ring connectors permanently, terminating in an easy-access charge port near the left knee (rear spring).
- Now I can tend overnight, maintain through winter, whatever. Plug in and leave alone. Deltran 750mA. Charges dead->full in under 24 hours, or keeps safely charged at top.
