It’s been about 1 month (34 days) since I’ve been using an automated saving service called Digit, and I’ve really been digging it. I’ve saved around $360 without realizing or missing it, and I keep really good track of my finances.

The way it works is you connect a bank account, it spends a couple of days figuring out your spending habits, and then it makes withdrawals every couple of days based on how it determines you spend, and what you can spare.

I’m using this round of savings for a trip I’m taking in August. Then it’s all wedding savings.

Oh..and it’s free.

    This piece by David Kagan at The Dispatch perfectly captures all of my issues with the MLB’s rule changes…and the clear evidence that Manfred doesn’t care about baseball. Finally, we have the ghost-runner rule, Manfred’s most notorious bastardization of the game. The rule places a base runner at second base to begin every extra-inning frame….

  • Great Win by the Yankees

    I’m a die-hard Yankees fan who grew up in the 90s. I’m a little spoiled. I honestly went into watching last nights game assuming the worst and hoping for the best. Thankfully they won. It wasn’t the cleanest win, but it was a fun game to watch. On to Game 4!

  • Running with the Apple Watch Ultra

    I started running again. Well, more accurately, I ran this morning. I’m trying to reform the habit. This was the first time I ran outside since I ran a 10K in November 2016, IIRC. I decided to start again because I need to do something, and running requires the least amount of setup. Something that…

    Last week, Wisdm Labs published an interview I did with them and I think it turned out great! One thing that struck me was Namrata, the interviewer, asked me 4 questions that were specific to me. One was “If you weren’t a Front End Developer, you would be…” I chose photographer. I really enjoy taking photos…
