Things I learned lately 24 Nov


  • Ellen Degeneres is 60!
  • Costco employees get a free turkey on Thanksgiving (at least in the US).
  • Mark Zuckerberg has been seen driving an Acura TSX and a Honda Fit.
  • Melania Trump spent $174,000 on hotels she didn't sleep in on a 12-hour trip to Canada. The hotel bills don't include her staff or logistics team, who had $18,000 total in hotel costs.
  • If you have iOS12 on any model of iPhone, there is a clever way to edit text. Simply long-press on the iPhone's space bar. You'll get a cursor you can move anywhere by dragging your finger. Don't lift your finger, just drag it into the text area and the cursor will follow the drag. 
  • A British high school has banned Canada Goose, Moncler and other expensive luxury coats to stop students bullying other kids from lower-income backgrounds. Not sure how this helps.
  • Ivanka Trump, the president's daughter and a top White House adviser, sent hundreds of emails about government business from a personal email account last year. No chants yet of 'lock her up' though.
  • There are 77,000 homeless people in New York City.
