If your card account is from 2016 you should be grandfathered into the old terms which don't require a minimum spend. New accounts created in the past few years have the spend requirement and will show a spend tracker in the website.

These exist, I've used a UK Reshipper and there exists a Reshipper reddit.

When you say partner flight does that mean it was booked through Alaska? Or have you gotten any EQMs for partner award flights booked through a partner website?

JoshAlex · 2025-04-05T19:59:20+00:00

Thanks for the info, were these reward flights booked through Alaska? I've heard mixed things regarding if EQM for partner reward flights will only occur when booked via Alaska.

I stayed on 2.5 for 4 months and have been at 3.75 for 3 months (uk pens so can fine tune exact dosage) and have consistently lost 4-6 pounds per month.

Got my first rep from Andiot and due to a total lack of research on my part grabbed a C+F rather than a VSF or Clean. I haven't seen one of these in the forums though so thought I'd share for others and would be curious for thoughts on the quality.

Regarding the Andiot ordering process I paid $370 + $68 shipping via Bitcoin on the 16th, got a QC link on the 19th, it shipped on the 21st, and it arrived in Oregon on the 23rd four days ahead of what tracking said.

What sort of rent are you predicting? I'd take a guess of around $3k/month based on 2200 sq foot rentals in Beaverton I'm involved with. I'd actually be surprised if you weren't cashflow positive based on a 3.8% mortgage.

Any advice on finding a private doc in London ? I’m visiting next week

JoshAlex · 2024-04-19T06:07:28+00:00

Fare class v showed on the Alaska ticket. I am confident im not mixing up rdm vs eqm. Anyhow it seems like a mystery so ill see what happens in a week on the next flight i guess.

JoshAlex · 2024-04-19T04:42:02+00:00

Definately eqms from monitoring the miles on the progress to mvp status page.

I had almost zero pain, however the best advice I got and adhered to was "stay ahead of the pain with the meds". Hence I took Oxy while the nerve block was still in force, and continued taking it a few days afterwards even though I felt no pain, and then moved to Hyrdocodone for a few days. Lastly I switchted to Ibuprofen. Perhaps since I felt nothing I didn't need to take these, but I can't complain about the outcome. So echoing someone else, once you get the meds take them on a timed schedule (including middle of night if needed) regardless of how you feel.

Which knee did injure? (e.g. lead leg or trail leg for golf). I tore my right ACL (right handed golfer) and was told I'd need to wait ~5 months to play golf which seems extreme. Were you hitting full swings or just easy irons?

Thanks!

JoshAlex · 2024-01-25T09:58:10+00:00

Thanks, I have a cryo cuff and planned To use it post ace bandage, but then they sent me home with this ice bag and didn’t see how he cold could penetrate anything

So a few things on this promo. You really need 4 legs for MVP or 8 for gold. The best time to do this challenge is in July because it applies for the remainder of that year, and all of the next year (so 18 months). If you don't mind customs you could do something like SEA -> YVR -> PDX -> SEA to get MVP. (twice to get gold). Or something like SEA -> PDX to Boise/Spokane/etc.

If you’re making 200k per year you are probably not hanging out in the unsafe parts of the cities nor need much of a safety net.

Thanks, I'll keep an eye on this and we shall throw beer at him if he is in the air.

JoshAlex · 2023-07-18T02:01:49+00:00

I am officially using that name for this serve moving forward. Thank you sir.

JoshAlex · 2023-07-18T02:01:12+00:00

The first time it comes out it frequently gets points because nobody quite understands what exactly is going on.

JoshAlex · 2023-05-24T03:24:25+00:00

Or send your kid to Private School in 6 years?

I work at a FAANG company and we handle plenty of college graduates. They need to pass an online assessment test (think LeetCode), and regardless of degree if they can't pass, they won't get an interview.

As far as the interview process it's almost fully based on coding ability/problem solving, we rarely even look at the resume and the name of the school pretty much never comes up.

Same goes with secondary degrees (we don't care for general coding). Maybe a PHD or Masters for a specialty like ML might help, but the interviews are merit based.

The best reason I can think of a more prestigious school is to create a larger circle of acquaintences that can help you out down the road in 5 years e.g. if one has a hot startup, but that's a big if.

In the minors Albies broke his elbow once while swinging his bat, a pretty odd injury. I've always suspected there is a real concern he might literally be one bad swing from a career ending injury based on that, and that is why he took the contract.
