He died as he lived, clicking “Forgot password,” then checking his inbox for a code, then putting in that code, then setting up two-step verification, and then waiting for the text message that doesn’t come, and then calling the 800 number, and then downloading an authenticator app, and dying.

Here’s the S&P 500 first 217 trading days of 2024. As you can see, so far at least, 2024 is the best year this side of the century. Can it hold on?

Hello Bluesky :)
