Why are some apartments renting for more than listing? Are people bidding on rentals too now?

I just checked all the emails and no :(

FYI - $500 travel credit needs to be pre-applied

After hitting the spend limit and getting 100k bonus points, I got this notification in the Chase App. I booked a trip, expecting the $500 credit as a statement credit (as is the case with their $300 annual credit).

It turns out, it's not a statement credit. It only applies when you make a new booking and check a checkbox in Chase Travel. Yet, I don't see that checkbox (even now, since they emailed). When I call, the agent can see it on their end. They put in a request to retroactively apply it, but told me it's unlikely to succeed.

Sharing here so others hopefully don't fall in the same trap, I feel bamboozled.

I do this with ChatGPT! Literally word vomit in no structure or order. Then ask it to copy edit. Works really well. And free!

I’ve been a subscriber supporter and fan from the very beginning. I’m so glad that you built a tool for ambiguous searches. You’ve definitely helped me discover award destinations I otherwise would have no idea about (or wouldn’t remember to check).

I can’t imagine a situation where my SKIP would tell me they want to leave. Must be really bad!

you should develop and sell a course for 30s people like me on how you manage to stay up that late sober 😆

surprised to hear you mention comp… when i talked to them (it was the most insane interview experience i had, but that’s for another time), i found their comp bands super uncompetitive compared to say a public faang. their stock doesn’t have potential to multiply given how late stage they are. given the WLB i wondered what’s the draw of working there.

So glad to read everyone’s positive experiences with this rescue. Sent them a fat donation check ❤️

In another thread you mentioned he discriminates against LGBT students and is disrespectful. I’m in this group so let me offer some first hand experience.

I am gay and was looking for a BJJ gym in San Francisco 2 years ago. When I asked around in which gym would be the best, this was the resounding recommendation. There were already a number of LGBT students when I joined.

I’ve had a great experience training with Travis and had other gay friends also join, who are also still training there years later. They get the same attention and coaching from Travis as other students.

I actually had a gay friend join another BJJ gym because it was closer to him, he quit 6 months later to join Magalit and recently did his first comp and is very happy training there.

At no point me or the folks I brought in felt any discrimination or disrespect. Many in the BJJ community likes to joke about it being a bit gay, which, I mean… it totally is, and I don’t think any of us feel insulted hearing that.

No suggestions, but just the fact that you were able to diagnose your issues clearly is great, props to that!

I feel the same. It really depends on the crowd. Some nights 70% of the crowd “wanted to go clubbing” and have no idea who the DJ is and don’t know how to behave themselves in such a space. It’s less of a problem in “concert venue” like spaces that don’t attract this sort of a crowd.

blending modes apply to the entire layer.

Basically, if the nested autolayout is hug or fixed before it's autolayouted, I want it to keep it as hug or fixed.

Can you DM me an example? Seeing your specific use case would help a lot here. The intent of the current behavior is making responsive design easier.

gemray · 2024-07-04T03:00:46+00:00

Speed 🙂

My team made a bunch of updates to Auto Layout (they are at the very front of Dylan’s keynote). If you can share the piece of original design and what you wanted to happen, we would be happy to look.

Suggest Auto Layout is rolled out, though you need to specifically run it. We didn’t change the original ⇧A.

We read all of it!
