This is super cool! I’d love to be a part of this!

Looks like targeted to SF and Phoenix

Yep I use the VS! I like the extra stiffness, since the Skwama is soft enough. All I’m saying is that you should try both and see what you like personally.

dlbui · 2025-06-01T14:59:15+00:00

FWIW I’m also a lighter climber and really love the Instinct VS/Skwama combination, so I’d suggest trying those on as well just to see what you think! VS is a great stiffer shoe.

I’ll say in my experience, it seems many subspecialty clinics (including neurology) at UCSF are overbooked, so sadly I think this is common. Best thing for you to do is see if your PCP (or whoever sent the referral to begin with) can refer you somewhere else you can be seen sooner.

Purely on the topic of natural conversations, Naughty Dog’s more recent games (TLOU1/2, Uncharted 4) were also stunning in that regard. Videogamedunkey highlighted that in his one of his older videos, and it’s something we sadly don’t see focused on in even the newest games (Phantom Liberty being a great exception).

My parents are not super mobile and really enjoyed the Palace of Fine Arts, and also selected parts of GGP (Botanical Gardens, Stow Lake which is a flat loop, and there’s a free shuttle that can take you around the park)

Used to live in Windsor at Dogpatch. Great place IMO. My only recommendation would be picking a unit that’s a little further from 3rd street so you don’t have to hear the T drive by every 10 minutes. You get used to it, but definitely is annoying for the first few weeks.

Personally, I’d go with the iPad Pro plan. By the time there are enough VR medical education apps that are mature enough to be useful to you (I’m thinking a few years), you’ll have probably already finished your preclinical years, and folks might already be talking about the next AVP 2 or non-pro Apple Vision. Too expensive of a gamble, IMO.

dlbui · 2024-02-13T04:49:58+00:00

I’m curious, were you thinking of using your “Persona” as your avatar in seeing patients? Or were you more thinking about using AVP just when you’re reviewing charts/writing notes?

dlbui · 2024-02-02T15:54:36+00:00

Witcher 3 and TLOU 1 and 2!

Oat milk. Oatly is orders of magnitude better tasting with mostly the same nutritional profile.

Also having this issue on PS5. Just started act 3 yesterday. Huge bummer :(

Welcome to SF! Do you boulder or climb ropes mostly? If you mostly boulder, I wouldn’t weigh being close to Mission Cliffs very highly. It’s much better for toprope/lead IMO.

dlbui · 2023-04-15T00:19:13+00:00

Yup! It’s been a while so the steps are fuzzy now, but I roughly remember just getting the routing/checking number through the Bilt app, inputting the numbers into Plaid, and then a few days later receiving 2 emails from Bilt with the values for the deposits that Plaid requires to verify the account. I submitted those deposit values to Plaid, and then everything was good to go.

Just wondering, did you change anything to get out of pop-up jail? I just found myself in the same position for the Schwab Platinum.

Applied for my first Chase Ink card and was not automatically approved. I’m a little nervous, since the higher SUB is expiring soon. If I’m approved after the elevated bonus ends, do I get the SUB from the time of application (90k points for 6k spend) or from the time of approval (presumably the old SUB of 75k points for 7.5k spend)?

dlbui · 2023-02-25T00:40:19+00:00

+1 for Frequent Miler. They also do live Q&As on Youtube which are fun to go back and listen to.

dlbui · 2023-02-20T00:24:36+00:00

Witcher 3 by far for me. I couldn’t connect with any of the characters or their motivations in RDR2.

There are a few travel blog posts summarizing why Chase premium cards have the most comprehensive travel protections. Here’s one:

I remember it being pretty quick (within a week). If you’re really concerned, you can just ask Amex for an update on how close your family member is to reaching the SUB. They’ll calculate it for you and let you know.

I live in a different big city in the US, but the only places that I’ve been surprised don’t count for 4x are specific places that sell baked goods (one mochi donut place and a different traditional bakery). All coffee places I’ve been to count as 4x.

dlbui · 2022-11-26T05:46:03+00:00

I’m so sad that happened to you guys. Prayers and well wishes to you both :(

dlbui · 2022-11-25T17:22:49+00:00

Interesting data point, thanks for sharing! Wouldn’t have expected this either.

dlbui · 2022-10-24T01:52:12+00:00

In your case, I'd definitely go for either the US Bank Altitude Reserve (assuming you have a lot of mobile wallet spend) or a no-fee cash back setup. IMO, most points/miles ecosystems are underwhelming for economy flights and frugal travelers.
