morning lessons

Good lesson this morning with just two students. We talked about rental おっさん in Japan. Interesting concept of renting old men because they are older and presumably wiser. They? We?

Walked with Tariq from Akabanebashi to Shibashi while we talked about future plans for our swipe game. He found a designer who can create excellent graphics.

Did not end up needing my computer, but I have my rolly bag so no worries.

Rolled to Ginza Line and got back to my station for 411 yen, given that I have a free pass from Shin Yurigaoka to Noborito.

I got an email from Netflix saying they are going to raise prices starting soon. They did not list the options that were available, but had some indication that I could change my plan or cancel if I wanted. I was not logged in to Netflix on my mobile phone so I left the email in my inbox to deal with later.

Sat down to Netflix and chill today and a new dialog box popped up. "Your price will go up to 1200 yen per month" and then two options: Continue or Change Account (or something).

Clicked Change Account and then clicked down to basic (only 1 screen, no HD) for 800 yen per month. Bingo awesome UI and thank you Netflix.
