Firefox mobile allows you to have extensions, while Chrome mobile does not.
Flight delayed for a couple hours at SFO; this was a great read, thank you!
Also plugging Firefox mobile here if you do any web browsing from mobile. You can add uBlock Origin on Firefox mobile, which you can't do on Chrome mobile.

My next startup will be called Rifyly
Does it rebalance daily? Wouldn't you pay short term cap gains if it does?

Or is the strategy to buy an index, then only sell losers after an amount of time?

Is Python experience absolutely required for the SE role? It's probably the easiest language to pick up, no?
