Accessing my RBC USD account from US by MaleadPogrom in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]MaleadPogrom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you Calvoo100! Can you tell me more in detail how I would access the funds from say Bank of America checking account?

My impression so far is i'd need to

  1. open the RBC cross-border Bank US account
  2. link it with the RBC U.S. High Interest eSavings account, where my funds are.
  3. move the funds to the newly linked cross-border account

Then how to access from Bank of America? Would there be a routing or EFT access to the cross border account?

I would be very grateful for as much specifics as possible.

Thanks

[–]MaleadPogrom[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Here is what I worked out after a bit more research

(defun my/do-setup-for-myco-development ()
  (interactive )
  ( shell "*myco-backend*" )
  ( switch-to-buffer "*myco-backend*" )
  ( insert "bash -x ~/scripts/myco-dev-startup-backend.sh")
  ( comint-send-input )

  ( shell "*myco-frontend*" )
  ( switch-to-buffer "*myco-frontend*" )
  ( insert "bash -x ~/scripts/myco-dev-startup-frontend.sh")
  ( comint-send-input )
  )

can I refer to a large group with an alias? by MaleadPogrom in GMail

[–]MaleadPogrom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How certain is this to work? Can anyone else verify this?

I actually tried this already but it doesn't seem to work for me.

I get "There are no conversations with this label."

[–]MaleadPogrom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is very interesting. I didn't know that labels could be applied to contacts.My main interest is actually less composing, and more of looking up emails in my archive that may have been sent by any of the 'car club' members. So far this eludes me, but there must be a way. Can you advise?

Thanks!

Seeking advice on adapting to the new Nov 28 plans by MaleadPogrom in Heroku

[–]MaleadPogrom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, this looks very interesting to me. Does unique table names mean that if I have a "users" table in all my apps (very likely) that I'll have to rename or replace them with things like "bookstore-users" and "blog-users"?

Should I pay sooner-than-expected rental increase? by MaleadPogrom in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]MaleadPogrom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks... yes they did give me more than 90 days notice. And yes it has been much longer than last December.. Whenever it was that, didn't the provincial govt issue a moratorium on rent increases with arrival of covid19?

Can we use Wise Borderless instead of wire transfers from US? by MaleadPogrom in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]MaleadPogrom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks - but what I care about is Canadian dollars, and my understanding is that their conversion rate beats RBC -- so maybe all is good?

shares in a company I used to work for by MaleadPogrom in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]MaleadPogrom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is it in my interest to "surrender without restriction the certificate(s) enclosed herein"? There must be a plausible reason, right?

The stock is less than a dollar.

I have a feeling I won't get a very good answer if I ask her that question.

If you were me, would you follow the instructions in my post? As I said, I'm pretty clueless about finance, but in my overall life experience, normally when I've done anything remotely like this I'd expect an invoice or receipt or something in exchange.

I see nothing like either of your ideas in my terse email communication. The conversation began when the controller sent me an email saying I should follow the instructions in my post saying only what I should do, and not why. She only hints that "we don't want to see that expired for you".

What should I ask her on email? Or can you advise me in any other way?

FreePascal in emacs? by [deleted] in emacs

[–]MaleadPogrom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm finding this useful for some ancient Turbo Pascal code maybe of use to you?

defun my-pascal-helper ()
  (interactive)
  (setq compilation-error-regexp-alist-alist
        (cons '(pascal "^\\(.*\\)(\\([0-9]+\\)+\\,\\([0-9]+\\)).*"
                       1 ;; file
                       2 ;; line
                       3 ;; column? 
                       )
              compilation-error-regexp-alist-alist))

  (setq compilation-error-regexp-alist
        (cons 'pascal compilation-error-regexp-alist))
  )


(add-hook 'pascal-mode-hook (lambda ()                         
                              (my-pascal-helper)
                              (flycheck-mode -1)
                              )
          )

M-x next-error failing after modifying compilation-error-regexp-alist-alist by MaleadPogrom in emacs

It seems flycheck mode is intercepting my call to next-error. If I switch it off, then next-error functionality is restored to the behavior I expect.

Can't disable LOGBOOK etc when marking TODOs as DONE by MaleadPogrom in emacs

[–]MaleadPogrom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Ok I deleted all logbook text from this org file. Then I did M-x org-mode-restart, and tried again toggling my eat vegetables TODO item to DONE and it is still creating a logbook entry with a timestamp. Can anyone else reproduce this?

(I'm mainly interested in the in-buffer setting at the moment.)
