David Fincher's Cliff Booth coming in theatre Nov 25

This was originally planned as a summer release, but now it’s getting an IMAX run and a late year debut. I’m curious if Netflix believes there’s still a shot at slipping into the awards race.

Also, Looks like they changed its name from "The Adventures Of Cliff Booth" To "Cliff Booth".

How do you structure your risk management plan when utilizing higher leverage ratios on standard retail accounts?

I am looking at redefining my risk parameters because I want to maximize the efficiency of a smaller trading balance. a lot of the international platforms like bullwaves allow you to scale up the leverage quite a bit on their entry tier accounts which gives you a lot of flexibility but obviously increases the danger significantly if things turn south.

My current approach has always been to keep my total risk per position under a strict percentage of my total balance but when you have access to higher multipliers the temptation to overleverage during a strong trend is always there. It feels like a double edged sword that can easily ruin an account if you lack discipline.

What kind of internal rules or automated tools do you use to force yourself to stay within safe boundaries? Do you rely heavily on strict stop loss placements right at the point of order entry or do you manually manage the exposure based on daily volatility?

RingCentral vs iPlum for scaling teams , real experience needed

We’re at 50 employees and trying to decide between staying with iPlum or moving to RingCentral. Right now iPlum works fine for simple business calling and keeping everything separated, but we’re unsure if it will hold up as we add more people and processes. RingCentral seems like the full upgrade, but I’ve also heard mixed feedback about complexity, pricing, and admin overhead. For anyone who has used both at a similar scale, how did it actually play out in real use? Did RingCentral make things smoother, or did it feel like too much system for a mid-size team? Would really appreciate honest feedback before we decide.

I Passed GIAC GCIH (GIAC Certified Incident Handler) 2026 Study

Preparing for the GIAC GCIH exam was not an easy journey for me. In the beginning, I had very little idea about how to structure my study plan or which resources were actually reliable. I started by understanding the official syllabus and breaking it down into smaller sections such as incident handling, network analysis, malware investigation, and system defense techniques. I focused on building strong fundamentals first instead of rushing into practice questions. I also created daily study goals and followed a consistent schedule, dedicating specific hours every day for reading concepts and practicing labs. Hands-on practice was the most important part of my preparation because the exam is not just theoretical but also scenario-based. Slowly, I started gaining confidence as I revised concepts multiple times and worked on real-like environments to improve my problem-solving speed.

In the final stage of my preparation, I used ITexamsPro Test Engine as a key resource to test my knowledge in a practical way. The question patterns and difficulty level were very similar to the actual GIAC GCIH exam, which helped me understand the exam mindset better. I practiced repeatedly and reviewed every mistake carefully to improve my weak areas. This platform played a very important role in boosting my confidence before the final exam. Eventually, I was able to perform well and successfully pass the exam because many of the questions felt familiar and aligned with what I had already practiced. My site name, or exam code "GIAC GCIH", reflects this journey of preparation and success, showing how consistent practice and the right resources can lead to achievement in a challenging certification path.

My 2026 Ranking

This is my 2026 movie ranking (Ion have included Indian movies like Dhurandhar 2, Border 2 etc)

I have very different opinion about "The Rip", that's why I've placed it above PHM.

How much does it cost to install a complete commercial laundry setup?

I’ve been looking into setting up a commercial laundry business and honestly the installation cost seems all over the place depending on the scale and equipment a small thing that made me start digging deeper was when I visited a local laundry setup and the owner told me the machines themselves were expensive, but plumbing, electrical work, dryers, steam setup and installation added way more than he expected.I did spend some time checking machine listings on alibaba just to get a rough idea of different setups and equipment types, and I’ll say it’s actually pretty useful seeing complete laundry systems and capacities side by side, but once you start adding everything together the numbers get confusing fast from what I’ve seen, even a smaller commercial setup can easily go into several lakhs once you include washers, Dryers, Ironing equipment, installation and interiors.I’m mainly trying to understand what a realistic budget looks like for a decent setup that can handle regular customer loads without cutting corners. So yeah how much did your setup actually cost in the end including installation and hidden expenses, and what part ended up costing way more than you expected or am I overestimating this whole thing ?

This sub skews traditional payroll and EOR, but wanted to share a pattern that has emerged for companies with international contractor bases (not full-time employees).

The problem:

  • 20-50 contractors spread across 10-15 countries
  • Not full-time employees, so Deel / Remote EOR is overkill and too expensive
  • Not W2s, so no ADP / Gusto equivalent
  • Wise Business works for OECD countries but falls over for Africa, LatAm, South Asia
  • Ops person is spending 8-12 hours per month just running payouts

The stack we have seen work:

  1. Contracts and onboarding — handled outside payroll (we use Deel Shield or Rippling for contractor onboarding only, not for payroll)
  2. Monthly approval workflow — spreadsheet or Notion where managers mark ""approved to pay""
  3. Batch creation — a single CSV of (contractor, country, amount, preferred rail) at month-end
  4. Payout execution — a single API call per contractor via a stablecoin off-ramp provider, or Wise Business API for OECD markets
  5. Reconciliation — the API returns a transfer ID, which is our single source of truth; contractor confirms receipt within 24 hrs

Time-to-execute dropped from 8-12 hrs to 30 minutes after batch approval.

Key learnings:

  • Do not mix personal and business payout rails. Your founder's Wise personal account for ""quick payments"" is a compliance timebomb.
  • Let each contractor pick their preferred receive method (M-PESA vs local bank vs IBAN). Default to whichever is cheapest for that country.
  • The savings are bigger than you expect. For 30 contractors averaging $2k/month, the fee delta between ""Wise everywhere"" and ""best rail per corridor"" is ~$800/month.

Anyone else doing this at scale? Specifically curious how people handle the compliance side (MSB / money transmitter status of the payout provider, W-9 equivalents, etc.)

There are 59 Indian movies in Letterboxd’s Top 250 Films Above 150 Minutes in Runtime.

Meanwhile, only 4 Indian movies appear in Letterboxd’s original Top 250 Films.

Are there really this much shortage of great movies over 150 minutes runtime??

Why is it like that?

(And please don’t comment “both are different lists.”)

With PBKS losing this match, we now have a real chance of topping the table (not jinxing it). If I recall correctly, the last time we finished at the top was back in 2011.

I’m a B2B AE at a 25-person company selling services to mid-market clients, and this has been bugging me for a while. Our “CRM” is basically a Frankenstein of Excel, shared inbox, and random Slack pins.

Last week my VP asked me in a 1:1 why my pipeline in his spreadsheet didn’t match what I told him on a call, and I realized half my follow-ups are buried in email. That convo kinda pushed this to the front of my brain.

I started googling stuff like Dynamics 365, sales CRMs, etc. and a bunch of sites came up, tigunia.com popped up in there too, and now I’m just overwhelmed by all the options and buzzwords. Part of me thinks a real CRM/ERP setup could help us stop dropping deals on the floor, but maybe I’m looking at this the wrong way and it’s more of a process/discipline problem than a tools problem.

For those of you in smaller B2B teams: what actually helped you close more and forecast better new tools, or just cleaning up process ? If you did invest in a CRM/ERP stack, what made it worth the money for sales specifically?
