renew cloudflare enterprise this year for #crisp, but tell them that we'll reduce reliance on them in the future cause they are constantly raising prices and now we pay 7k USD a month for a few add-ons, which more than we pay for all our server infrastructures at DigitalOcean, combined. CF is great but as soon as you go ENT it becomes an extractive business, akin to a drug dealer selling you addictive shit and then you're hooked and they can raise prices whenever they want and you still have to pay otherwise you're fucked
wake up feeling burnt out and tired but will keep on going bc that's the grind life #crisp

investigate macOS Tahoe and decide not to update to this macOS version, for the first year since I owned a Mac in 2011, design looks so broken for now, visually-wise it's optimized for iPhone and iPad (touch interfaces), not a Mac where productivity happens. Decide the same for iPhone since I own a Mini and UI elements looks so PHAT on iOS 26 too — will stay locked to good old macOS and iOS 2024 versions for an indefinite amount of time #life
obtain LEI for holding company so that I can invest in financial products through my corpo #life
