This is high risk but I've done a brain dump on what I like and don't like here
Electronics
One thing I never seem to run out of is charger plugs like this one which are A) Super small, B) From a reliable brand, C) 65w or higher, and D) Have 2 usb-c outlets. I don't like the ones that work in every country because they're so clunky, so I tend to just have each of the 3 different plug type - EU, IE, and US. The EU one is usually best to have multiple of - I only really need one of each of the other types.

Resintek "Liquid Wax": I found this in the Philippines and it's by far the best hair product I've used. I used to buy it on Amazon NL but it looks like they stopped selling it, and I also checked a half dozen online stores where it's also out of stock, so we may need to go the international route. Seb man has other products but it's this one specifically - in the pointy applicator bottle, that I'm looking for
Today's issue related to Revolut.
Receive email - "You need to update your info to keep using the service"
Click through, scan qr code, open the app.
Brings me to a UI to add my details. Looks like it's for the trading account specifically.
The only unfilled field is Nationality.
Click in, select Ireland, go back to main screen.
But the main screen still hasn't updated, and still shows "Add Nationality"
Repeat this 4 or 5 times - doesn't work
Now I have to spend time reaching out to live chat, explaining the issue, because of a bug they have. And if I don't do that they threaten to shut down my account 🤦♂️
Call: Tony Alex Megan Ciaran Call - call notes logged separately
Update: Karlo available to start next Wednesday. Still needs to confirm contract but provisionally pencilled in
Update: Tony & Megan both posted into internal channel - snippets:
Megan: Shared the spec of backend sims
Tony: Priorities are:
Jen - pick up and finish Jason's ticket plz. After that plz start to look at the chrome extension ticket
Joey - let us know (roughly) how long you have left in your backend ticket
Lastly, I think we should do a call to disseminate all the context Megan & myself have gathered on the backend sims product, which is quite technical. Any chance tomorrow would suit people any time from 5:30 to 7pm Manila?
Morning call with the team. Not much to report, still aiming to ship the rebrand build on Tuesday
