Great work! Had a similar project i built before COVID and saw the need and value here. Once the pandemic hit I never went back to it but this is a great execution of this!
I had a similar idea running but was AI based. Mirrored some workflows into a personal Product Manager and wanted to help people stay on track. Kinda upset I never pushed it seeing this full for $35 a month.
I still find this hard to believe as ever since 2009s recession, I personally have never met so many people recently who have been laid off and looking for work in a lot of different industries and also the amount of people who work multiple jobs. Almost everyone I know who’s not very wealthy is doing their day job and has some other form of income to be able to pay normal bills
Pickem is straight up normally so would be money line bets essentially.
The spread is designed to make the bet a 50/50 so it would need to take into other factors or compute it’s spread to determine if there is an edge on Vegas.
As someone who has loved Twilio from the early days and have built many apps for small and enterprise cases as well as fully embraced Flex in the customer experience space, I really have no idea what the hell they are doing now. Not sure if they are right sizing after trying to capture markets like video and Contact Center but it seems like even successful sales teams are let go now so curios where they emerge from this.
Just because a hurricane hits Miami doesn't mean the entire state feels it. It rains, streets may get backed up with water around the sewer just like there was a thaw of snow in northern states. You would be surprised how much of a city on the water is not in a flood zone.
You want to live on the water, you are mandatory to pay the fees to maintain insurance if you have a loan or if you own, you can roll the dice and not. Each storm causes areas that may have not been hit in decades to have higher premiums and areas that have never felt a storm in decades that are older builds get knocked down and rebuilt with new code and higher up to prevent another wipe out.
Most damage is from flooding due to storm surge which exists on coastlines. Wind and power outages happen and can take down trees just like elsewhere in the world but the massive destruction is caused by the force and amount of water on the coasts.
Building codes exist on probability of what can happen. When buildings were built, they had codes to follow based on the current time. When they are destroyed, they are rebuilt with new codes such as on stilts, better windows, different materials, etc. It isn’t like we just keep building the same building and expect things to change.
If you do live on the coast anywhere in the US, it should be a general assumption that at some point, that water is gonna be in your house or that your house is gonna be taken out by the water over its existence.
The only thing I miss from being only a HackerNews/X user is birthdays and events.
As adults realize more and more people are not daily Facebook users, invites has gone back to other platforms like eVite but overall, the lack of seeing the latest TikTok trend is much better mentally and productivity wise than endlessly scrolling through content I don’t care about.

- Dog usually is up by 830-9. Take on walk and get sunshine and fresh air to help wake up for about 20 min.
- Jump on morning standup calls. Some are active and some aren’t so use the secondary ones to start breakfast consisting of eggs, protein, and some fruit.
- Make coffee. I wait 90-120 minutes before I drink any caffeine from waking up.
- Work on short higher priority items that I noted from the night before until noon and hit the gym to break up the day.
Being in a desert during an El Niño season is a poor decision. It does rain occasionally and I don’t think people going to camp with a days worth of food in small tents understand the risk of a desert climate.
Also, it’s not that remote. Diplo and Chris Rock walked 5 miles out of the site and got picked up and driven back so while the situation does suck, it’s not like they are alone in the great white north 100 miles from civilization. It’s off a road only a few miles.

Basically use the old website on a laptop once every few weeks now and never engage with any content anymore. Mostly check news, click a link maybe, and move on but has been replaced by other information sources.
Forget inflation data. Companies are not doing raises and a lot are not doing bonuses. Is anyone honestly saying they spend less now than a few years ago? Would love to hear the back story.
