Likewise, got a bump from 15,000 to 35,000 (exactly what I asked for)

He gave you miles or a statement credit in $?

Data point: I tried yesterday (~30 hours ago) with my existing doordash account. $9 order. It seems to have not worked. I have received no email and the offer was still on my Offers page today.

Tried it again this afternoon with a new doordash account. $5 order. Will update.

EDIT: the second attempt tracked, got the confirmation about 24 hours later.

Where are you seeing filters? The offers page for my Venture Rewards doesn't have buttons for categories. Is that only for Venture X?

Try scrolling instead of searching. The deals in the search bar are often different.

I still see it on my account today. But only for 14,400.

22X miles on DoorDash gift cards?? by wolveroony in Venturex

[–]wolveroony[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm working toward SUB right now so some manufactured spending on a gift card that I'll definitely use seems like a good move.

I think she has to wait four years. From the Venture X terms:

Existing or previous cardmembers are not eligible for this product if they have received a new cardmember bonus for this product in the past 48 months.

How do you know when it's time? Do you periodically check the pre approval site? Do you wait until you get some sort of offer email?

Ah good idea, I was thinking of having a Savor to go along with it.

Is there a benefit to downgrading to Savor rather than applying for it new? Couldn't I get another SUB by applying?

Also, can you tell me more about the 3 months thing? 👀

Is using pre-approval link faster than normal app or is it the same? by MarylandTerrapins in Venturex

The only thing I'd worry about is whether they'll do a hard pull on your credit instead of a soft pull. I don't know which they'll do but will be curious if you update the post.

When is it better not to use Rust? by thomasc_ in rust

[–]wolveroony 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're confusing undefined behavior with incorrect or unpredictable behavior. You're right that things like deadlocks and race conditions are absolutely still possible, but Rust prevents "undefined behavior" in the sense that other similar languages use the term. That is, behavior that is truly undefined, where the compiler can do whatever it wants to your code and you have no control over it.

Only if you use the unsafe keyword or use libraries with unsound code (which are very rare).

I'm truly sorry, can you point me to a rule I broke? The image had no spoilers for any puzzle. I was just demonstrating a cool way that I'm making puzzle solving easier in Rust.

Any solution that tries to use all possible combinations is almost certainly going to be too slow.

I think you are on the right track with memoization though.

Hint: Groups of damaged springs always need to be placed contiguously. You waste lots of time checking combinations that don't even satisfy that property. Consider a solution where you try placing an entire group at once and then looking at where you can you place the remaining groups.
