- You can factory reset an ipad (without the passcode) by turning it on while connected to a computer (+itunes).
- Confirmed my DigitalOcean bill is now jus the wp droplet blog, not sbsc.
- Remember that apple takes 30% of the purchase price of apps in the app store. And 30% of in-app purchases. Crazy. But I looked up google play today to compare, and it’s the same (well, it starts at 15% for the first 1M/yr in revenue to encourage startup, then becomes 30).
- Checked the november ADP employment report: https://adpemploymentreport.com/. Subscribed to the monthly via email.
- Wired from schwab to boa ($15 fee, and you have to submit before 4pm ET to have it transfer the same day). Arrived in <5min.
- SBSC updated banner, committed lines, submitted picks.
- Again, their maintenance is so bad: https://www.superbook.com/supercontest/weekly-card-13/.
- It’s
buccaneers**
(with two asterisks for home team instead of one).
- There’s been an inconsistency in half the weeks this season.
- Mahlstedt LLC.
- Got $300 credit for the boa business account (not sure if this was for cc spend or zenbusiness affiliate, I think the former – so $200 more should come later).
- Remember too there’s the $16/mo fee for the business checking account if the balance is below 5k.
- Analyzed all books for Mahlstedt LLC, assets and liabilities. Looks good, all balanced. Paid everything. Should be 0 boa business bills (unless you use the corporate card).
- For BoA business accounts: the individual card account balances don’t matter on the main view, they’re just there to show the distribution across multiple cards. For payments and balancing, just look at the rollup corporate account (ignore individual card accounts).
- Liquidated my Kalshi position. >1k contracts for NO moon landing before Jan 1 2025. Around 86cents avg price.
- Jan Gustafsson is definitely one of my favorite chess commentators lol. So dry and sarcastic.
- Magnus and Dubov advance to the MrDodgy finals, tomorrow should be a good match. Aronian beat Andreikin to advance in scc (this match was excellent).
- Liveaquaria delay. They don’t update the “in stock” params quickly enough during large sales like black friday so you can fill a cart and submit an order on items that are actually out of stock. Saddest about the 2 new anemones (rose and sebae), hopefully they’ll still get here before friendsgiving on saturday.
- Kinda against commods in general (there are exceptions). Equity investments are an attempt to aim the future (where you add value accordingly), but commods are for the present – if that makes sense.
- JPowell spoke at Brookings about the economic outlook: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYUIt6FtIB4.
- Basically – inflation is still too high, so we’ll keep hiking interest rates, but not as much as the past few.
- Inflation in 3 buckets: core services, housing, and non-housing.
- Lots of private work.
- Craniometrix another healthtech startup trying to help alzheimer’s: https://www.craniometrix.com/
- SBF gave an interview: https://www.nytimes.com/live/2022/11/30/business/sam-bankman-fried-interview.
- Another pile of deflection. “I was not aware..” “I did not knowingly…” disappointing.
- Andrew Sorkin is a pretty direct interviewer, but I would take it even further. Ask straight, simple questions. Require yes or no answers. Did you comingle funds? Did you talk with alameda about lending? Had you looked through the books yourself? Is this tweet a lie? Etc etc. If they don’t respond with yes or no, ask the exact same question again.
- When asked if he did certain things or knew certain things, he would counter with the question “at what date” lol.
- The “I’m a good guy” look is so disingenuous now too. “All my lawyers are telling me to stay quiet but look at me, I am honest and open and want to keep you all in the loop.” You’ve been caught in that exact same lie publicly multiple times.
- Tried a little greek yogurt mixed with scrambled eggs before cooking. Final product was a little creamier and richer.
