I have heard the trick commonly referred to as 'memory palace' or 'method of loci'.

Paypal have recently added an extra 3% charge for AU Paypal accounts to withdraw USD into US accounts.

I have spoken to a few small businesses that are going down the path of opening up a US based subsidiary to avoid these charges.

For anyone on Mac who is keen to try it out, there is a public Beta available.

How to play the beta: 1. Buy the game on Steam 2. Once the game is in your Steam library, right-click on it and select 'properties' 3. Click the 'BETAS' tab and select the beta from the dropdown list 4. Install the game 5. Enjoy :)

Hey kernelbugs, I work at TransferWise and would love to learn a little more about the issues you face with our address forms (it could be due to the fact that payment system limitations often lead to field limitation on our side). Hopefully I can help you figure out a way to make your life using our product easier as well. Could you please send me an email to tim@transferwise.com?

Whoops thanks.

Hi, I’m the guy who lost his wallet! I agree it’s a convenient overlap and understand your cynicism but I assure you that it’s genuine. I can even provide you with the receipt from me riding a jump bike around for an hour looking for my wallet! :)

EDIT: spelling + I did pin the tweet about transferwise after it blew up, and I also changed my bio to share my small side project: Podmast.com - check it out :)
