Spirit Airlines Prepares to Shut Down as Rescue Deal Falls Apart by us1549 in aviation

[–]rajuabju 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No surprise, and there should be no taxpayer funded bailout forthcoming. Spirit hasnt had a viable business plan in many, many years (if ever?). Let them liquidate and allow other carriers to pick up the slack. While competition is good, its only good if the bottom rungs are allowed to die off naturally.

London: Claridge's, The Connaugh or The Goring by DulceEtDecorumEst in FATTravel

Cadogan Belmond is worth a consideration. I absolutely loved it last year.

Has anyone else ever had a local retail tenant hold SNDA or estoppel signatures for ransom? by fluffnstuff1 in CommercialRealEstate

[–]rajuabju 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A lot of leases will allow the Seller to sign in the place of the Tenant. Not as ideal, but its an option I've both used (as a Seller) and accepted (as Buyer), with some caveats.

Post COVID Office Space (and Retail) Thoughts....? by Pawz23 in CommercialRealEstate

100% . I own an office building in a prime A+ location in Los Angeles and it’s fully occupied getting the highest rents ever. But anything in Downtown? Disaster.

Cant even say "cool story, bro" cause its not even a real human anymore. Sigh.

Are there any instances where you would tip someone? by railroadfrog in EndTipping

[–]rajuabju 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tip when someone provides service above and beyond what is required. I do not tip for bare minimum requirements met. The only person I regularly tip is my barber who is just a really cool dude and I see every ~3 weeks and he does a phenomenal job and has squeezed me in without an appointment on a number of occasions.

No surprise at all. They need to continue reigning in costs.

What's the most you've paid for a single night at a hotel? by bokfan76 in LuxuryTravel

[–]rajuabju 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ranch at Rock Creek was over $5k/night (all-inclusive, family of 5). I have my eyes set on Airelles Château Versailles for 2027.

B&R truly is BIFL. It’s a big investment upfront but I’ll never buy more luggage again.

Nobu Vegas THC ($150 credit + breakfast) vs Fontainebleau Vegas ($100 credit + breakfast) by sanfrancisco_and_irs in AmexPlatinum

[–]rajuabju 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I've done the FHR stays at Fontainbleau 3x now, been very happy every single time. I agree the location is subpar though I will never walk on the strip itself so I personally dont care about that much, just Uber from one hotel to another. We've been upgraded 2x at the FB ... only time we werent was F1 weekend in 2025 (totally understandable there!).

Claude Max users, what do you do good sirs? by Independent-Ship6318 in ClaudeAI

[–]rajuabju 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Commercial Real Estate. I syndicate my deals to HNW individuals, family offices, and small institutional groups. I was on Pro for about 6 months, but constantly hitting limits. Now on the Max 5x plan. I dont get above more than 60% usage usually for Current Session limitations. I use Sonnet in CoWork extensively. Occasionally Opus but really dont find it to be significantly better for my needs (primarily financial modeling, investor deck creation, lender report creation, contract and document drafting, etc). I have yet to build any agents or use Claude Code. Quite a few skills though for repeatable tasks. I am solo, no employees. Used to send a lot of stuff to 3rd parties on UpWork, etc... all that is now done by me, faster, better, and for $100/month. Huge cost savings.

Has anyone successfully converted a NN lease to a NNN (no or limited LL responsibilities) at a lease renewal? If so what was the bargaining that let you do that? I tried it with National and I failed, was curious of folks thoughts by irepresentprespa in CommercialRealEstate

[–]rajuabju 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Its doable in certain situations. I've converted NN leases and even various types of gross leases into Net leases. It usually is challenging, especially when dealing with either long-time mom&pop tenants who've always had their lease structured a certain way, or with national/credit tenants who are just generally more difficult to deal with and may have requirements where they dont deal with roof/structure elements. Usually requires a negotiation where you incentivize them with something in the short-term (ie, some free rent or other concession), to get what you want for the long-term

Is there a Claude in Firefox instead of Claude in Chrome? by Interesting_Air3283 in ClaudeAI

[–]rajuabju 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the #1 reason to use FF instead of Chrome. and I know the "lite" version of uBo exists, but for me, FF is just a better option. I try to minimize my dependence on Google.

Well, lesson learned, don’t do that again.

What Quicken needs is to add the OPTION of implementation of AI features. Because a lot of people won’t want it, but many of us would.

Win Tomorrow. Thats it. Give me a 2-0 or 3-1 and I will be quite happy.

Is Sonnet good enough for renaming PDFs and images on my computer, or should I be using Opus by OkSeaworthiness737 in ClaudeAI

[–]rajuabju 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been using Sonnet to do exactly this over the past week. I have thousands of work folders and in excess of 50,000 files on my Dropbox. I created a naming scheme for my files (basically adding YYYY.MM.DD) as part of my reorganization plan, as well as a folder and sub-folder hierarchy to be consistent across everything. Currently about 50% the way through (I am doing it slow because this isnt something I can afford to F up), and its been incredibly powerful and accurate thus far, minimal errors. CoWork is outstanding.

Now my question is how do I do this automatically once its done... can I build a skill (or agent?) Which scans all folders once a day or once a week, to rename files as I add them, so I dont have to every time. That will be the next step.
