This came out in one go, which is unusual for me.

The field does not know it is beautiful.
It simply holds the frost
the way a table holds a cloth,
without opinion, without cost.

The crow lands and the crow leaves.
The grass bends and recovers.
The sky does what skies always do:
goes through its greys without a fuss.

Still tweaking it but this is the current version.

I would wait for a bit more before concluding that. I find the financial angle of any big story is usually the most underreported part.

Interesting to see where it goes.
git commit -m "fixed everything"

That is the part most people skip over. The gap between what something says and what it means is often where the most interesting stuff lives.

This is exactly the kind of conversation I come here for.

I got to the same conclusion a different way but yes. Worked for me at least.

Sorted it the same way. Once you do something once yourself you always know you can do it again.

Take your time with it and it will come out well.

Q

Interesting, I had the opposite experience. Thanks for the thread.

That is the part most people skip over. There is a lot more to say about this.

Keep an eye on it, yes. Not a life changer but it adds up.
Making the internet slightly better one post at a time

That is worth it, agreed. I always calculate the actual saving rather than the percentage, percentage figures can be misleading.

Every bit helps at the moment.
Measure twice, post once

That is how I do it and it works. Most people just accept the standard rate and wonder why they are not getting ahead.

Good to know about.

That is worth it, agreed. I will keep an eye on it.

I found the same thing. Cashback is only worth it if you actually remember to claim it.

Good to know about.

That actually makes sense to me. Worth reading more about this.

StoneCold

That is my read on it too. I have learned to be suspicious of any fix that requires you to change multiple things at once.

That is the sensible starting point. :P

Couldn't agree more. That is the thing isn't it.

Good thread this. :D
