Top 5 FinTech Pitch Decks That Pulled Millions

Image
Investing should be more like watching paint dry or watching grass grow. If you want excitement, take $800 and go to Las Vegas. — Paul Samuelson. Hey guys, recently I’ve been dabbling on a pitch deck creation. To create a better pitch deck that will captivate investors and clients alike. Upon reading multiple pitch decks that have been submitted to YCombinator 1 , I’ve concluded that there is a certain pitch deck structure and characteristics needed. For me, I think a pitch deck must contain only the core of what you’re trying to do or achieve. I mean, just keep it short and simple which even a 5 year old could understand. Don’t put any jargon and highlight the important parts like graphs and figures. Anyways, let’s dive on some pitch decks used and created by well known companies in this day and age. Coinbase If you’ve been in the crypto space for a while, I know for sure you’ve heard the name Coinbase. Its one of the top cryptocurrency exchange that is base

Haylou GT1 Fix Earbuds Pairing

Image
Push yourself, because no one else is going to do it for you. — Anonymous. Hi guys, I’ve recently bought an Haylou GT1 earbuds (this are China manufactured earbuds). The earbuds was good but after a few weeks on using it on multiple devices, suddenly the earbuds doesn’t pair on each other. After searching some manuals I’d found out that there are steps to pair them back again. So this is just a small compilation of what I did. First, remove your earbuds from its casing (they were off and just turned on). Turn them off by touching them for 3 seconds (a red LED will blink once it turned off). When both the earbuds are already not running, touch both of the earbuds at the same time and wait for 20 seconds The earbuds LED should blink red and white at around 15 seconds and then it would blink again in 20 seconds mark (make sure both earbuds blinks twice ) Return both earbuds back into its case. Then on your phone’s Bluetooth settings delete the pairing connec

I've Discovered 8D Surround Sound! And It's Amazing!

Image
Hey guys, today I’ve started doing some exercise (some basics stretching and push ups). Then after that I’ve played some music on my laptop. Most of the music I’ve played were EDM (Electronic Dance Music) genre on 8D surround sound, I’ve tried to dance to it but I failed horribly. At around 8am, I’ve started cleaning the outer room. I’ve moped the tile floors till it became white again. Four hours passed after cleaning, a Shopee (an e-commerce site that is popular on Southeast Asia) delivery guy arrived to deliver a package that I’ve ordered last week. You know what is interesting in that event is when I asked the price, the delivery guy said its 215 pesos. I went back into my room to get my money pouch, I’ve checked my phone and to my disbelief that the actual price was 200 pesos only. I’ve told him about the price indicated on the app, suddenly he changed his statement. What the fudge, that cheap sore guy trying to rip me off. At 3 PM PST (Philippine Standard Time), I’ve st

You do not need to know precisely what is happening, or exactly where it is all going. What you need is to recognize the possibilities and challenges offered by the present moment, and to embrace them with courage, faith and hope. — Thomas Merton. Hey guys, recently I’ve been working on an ASP.NET Core project that needed email services to send reports. And I’ve been dumbfounded by some tutorial on how they implemented the email service functionality. Some are over complicated while others were over simplified. So here I am creating yet another tutorial for sending email using MailKit and .NET Core . Let’s jump in! Prerequisites First of all, you must have a . NET Core 3.1 SDK (Software Development Kit) installed in your computer and also I assumed you are currently running Windows 10 or some Linux with proper environment set. And MailKit on which this package becomes a de-facto standard in sending emails as its being preferred and recommended by Mi

Disable mDNS and SSDP Discovery in Google Chrome

Image
We're born alone, we live alone, we die alone. Only through our love and friendship can we create the illusion for the moment that we're not alone. — Orson Welles. Hi guys, if you ever check your task manager you’ll notice chrome is listening to port 5353 on Linux. Did you know you could stop it? as what this sub-process is specifically doing – listening and doing some device probing like an auto discovery which is similar to avahi . In order to disable this Chrome functionality you need to first create a directory and policy file. You could do this by executing the command below. sudo mkdir -p /etc/opt/chrome/policies/managed/ sudo touch /etc/opt/chrome/policies/managed/block_mdns_ssdp.json What this does is first create a directory inside the /etc/opt/chrome which will be used to store manage policies and create the initial policy file that we would be editing. Then we edit the block_mdns_ssdp.json file that we created earlier and then we put the contents
