Hoka is a serious running shoe. 3rd most popular shoe on Strava.

1. Asics Novablast
2. Nike Pegasus (previously no.1)
3. Hoka Clifton

To me the downside is that it is relatively expensive as it doesn't have the sort of discounts/clearance sales that Asics and Nike have. Also, they got no money to pay designer for a logo, just print the brand name big big on the shoe?

looking at the thread response, Netflix is hopeless.
(not vested in nflx)

YouTube is the king.

I bought Hoka Bondi 9. The outsole rubber sucks because it squeaks when it rubs against waxed/glazed floor tiles. Fortunately, i got it in Japan, so the price was reasonable (much cheaper than SG), and it's less painful for me to write it off.

The next shoe I'm aiming for is the Asics Megablast. This shoe will blow out every other non-plated max cushion shoe. Nike shoes lose to this.

The next shoe I'm aiming for is the Asics Megablast. Currently only the ugly green colour is available. This shoe will blow out every other non-plated max cushion shoe.

I assume the Hoka Bondi 9 doesn't squeak when you run outdoors... just don't wear it indoors.

If just for walking, Asics Nimbus is great.

Mexico joining US to form a bloc against China.
Mexico is a major silver producer and exporter to China. Majority of the US-listed silver miners have big mines in Mexico.
Easiest for China to retaliate with selective tariffs on Mexico's agriculture. I doubt China will impose tariffs on silver.

Mexico's Senate passes tariff hikes on Chinese, other Asian imports​

Bank of Japan set for first rate hike in 11 months.

However, I believe this hike is still too small to be meaningful. Because BoJ pauses a really long time between each rate hike.

Update : Big sell off in AI datacenter starting with FRMI.

Oracle's sell off is related to the rumors of datacenter delays:

Since u keep recommending Asics brand, i js ordered Asics GT 1000 Wide under $100 for long walks. Got simi 3D guidance hopefully it is a good stable and wide toe box shoe

My fren recommend China brand QiaoDan for their wide fit shoes (for walking)
