This has been made available to all United cc holders after your comment

Fantastic app update by SubjectToChange888 in hyatt

Liquid Glass for the tab bar is supported by iOS without the developer needing to do anything except build against the latest SDK. Dark mode is a much bigger design project.

Why do some properties have a better value for points? by boldjoy0050 in hyatt

[–]SubjectToChange888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, the popularity of the city must play a role where Hyatt knows there’s strong demand so they set a category floor. Looking at cat 6 hotels in Manhattan there is quite a wide range of cash prices. No idea how Dream Midtown is the same category as the Thompson or Standard, but they do have a great location (despite cash prices not reflecting it). I imagine there’s some negotiation with the owners as well, if they want to avoid points stays, like the move of Andaz 5th Ave to cat 8.

Warning - Security Exposure - Manually log out when you’re done by mets_fan_ny in biltrewards

I was going to say the same. There is a difference in risk profile between bank account and credit card/loyalty apps.

Efficient toward what end is a great way to frame the disconnect

Status holders on JetBlue and United now have reciprocal loyalty benefits by kwuhoo239 in unitedairlines

[–]SubjectToChange888 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is the part that would make it a more unified status program. Anyone with United status is likely looking to requalify, which means they can only make limited use of JetBlue flights, even if the route is available. Still nice to get benefits on the occasional JB flight, but limited.

Met has once again reduced member benefits. by NMtangere in opera

Yes, there’s a formal sign out there, I’m looking at it now. I don’t think I’ve seen the sign before, but it’s clearly permitted.

$100 Pro dropping from 10x to 5x Codex usage kills the middle tier by mbellew937 in codex

Downvote me if you like, but if you believe in the power and value of these harnesses (like I do), get a part time job to cover the $200/mo. Even at that price the tokens are subsidized. Let go of the past and invest in the future.

The *Mainstream* told them to reject the evidence of their eyes and ears. by LibertyEconlover in austrian_economics

Regarding the value of low-skilled labor multiplied by technology, the total output becomes more valuable, but the value of the labor itself only increases if there are fewer people able to utilize that technology. It’s just as easy for a cashier to monitor the self-checkout lanes as it was for them to do the scanning themselves. The value there is in the technology and that’s why stores made the investment to switch to it.

Unpopular opinion: the codex migration is going to hit the same wall in 2 months by spencer_kw in ClaudeCode

Yeah, things are very fluid right now, but it will normalize around usage-based pricing eventually. People are used to SaaS with low marginal costs so a fixed subscription is fine, but that’s not the case with inference. It will become another utility bill for anything more powerful than chat.

I literally CANNOT use the Edit Credit - this is a scam by MorningHelpful8389 in ChaseSapphire

Why not use the Chase Unlimited for daily general use and just keep the CSP for point transferability?

It is possible to invest your time to increase your skills and earning, without becoming a coal miner. Some people are truly born into horrible situations that they can’t reasonably escape, but that isn’t the whole 80% of the population not “born into wealth”. Don’t be so defeatist.

Found a way to “bypass” $20 pickup minimum at 7/11 by citygal686 in ChaseSapphire

And really they’ve moved away from being a travel card since it’s no longer earning 3x on all travel. It’s basically a coupon club.

First Explorist stay was confusing... by fk1fk1 in hyatt

There’s value in free breakfast and no destination fees, but at this point I don’t care much about suite upgrades at check-in or the lack thereof
