👋 Been away for these past few months, family commitments took priority.
I've got early access to the new Client Portal as a Fora X advisor, search & book 4K+ luxury hotels yourself, my perks applied automatically✨
Comment LuxuryStays below and I'll set you up👇
Apologies to anyone I left waiting, thank you for your patience 🙏
This client portal lets you check live availability and compare dates at your own pace, no more back and forth for a basic quote.
🏨 What's included automatically:
• 3rd, 4th & 5th night free at participating hotels
• Breakfast for two, daily 🍳
• Property credit 💳
• Upgrade, early check-in & late checkout on availability 🛌
• Elite status recognised, full points & elite nights earned ⭐
🤝 You're never on your own
The portal removes the back and forth. Once your booking's in, I still contact the hotel ahead of your stay to arrange upgrades, credits, and anything specific you need.
Preferred rates aren't always the cheapest, sometimes a member or promo rate wins. Worth comparing before you book. But even then, you're only getting the rate, not the breakfast, credit and upgrades that come with preferred rates.

Not my client yet? I'll grab your details first, then get you set up. 👇

A decade later, I’m starting up again.
I sold my first company ten years ago and have spent the years since working as an engineer. Now I’m building @workersio as a solo-founder.
We’re living in a new era where an agent can write software faster than a team of 100 engineers. As software becomes more autonomous, I want us to raise our expectations and take more responsibility for what we build along the way.
Software can have a long half-life, and over time it becomes critical in ways we never planned for. Businesses, and sometimes lives, end up depending on decisions (or our agents) we make.
For the longest time, building reliable & verifiably correct software systems required resources that only a few teams could afford. I want to make those capabilities widely accessible, especially as more teams take on ambitious problems and build more of their own software in-house.
Our ambition is to make five nines of availability and verifiably correct the default for software in the agent era, so the software running our world becomes more dependable as it becomes more capable.
I’m excited to share that we’ve raised from @ycombinator, @solofounders, and an incredible group of angels - @Joshuabrowder, @tylerwillis, @ericbluewatch, @gshewakr, @jaentwistle and some friends and customers.
This is the mission I’m committing to for my next moonshot; I’m grateful to everyone helping me bring it to life.
If this mission excites you, I’d love to hear from you. Whether you want to work with us, help us along the way, or exchange ideas about where software is headed, please reach out.

Three years ago, @thetrickytrade asked about our ultimate dream redemption if points were no object.
My answer was: A month at @raffleshotels Seychelles 🇸🇨
Fast forward to today, and I am pulling off what is probably the longest Raffles stay among all the ccgeeks! 😁
🚨 World of Hyatt x Aeroplan - Hyatt Status Challenge, Aeroplan Status Challenge expected soon
Here's how it actually works:
✈️ Register → instant trial Explorist status for 90 days
✈️ Complete 4 nights in that window → keep Discoverist status
✈️ Complete 10 nights → keep full Explorist status
✈️ Complete 20 nights → upgraded to Globalist status
Status holds through the rest of the calendar year + the following 14 months.
Who's eligible: Aeroplan 25K/35K/50K/75K/Super Elite members, or Premium Aeroplan Credit Cardholders, with accounts linked.
⏳ Must register by Dec 31, 2026. Elite members get 1 shot/year, Premium Cardholders get 2.
Fine print: only stays booked through Hyatt channels during the trial count, and you have to check out before the trial ends for the nights to qualify. Points redemptions would be accepted too.

My next stay is at this awesome Ryokan style luxury Resort - Banyan Tree Higashiyama Kyoto.
Got upgraded to the highest category from a base room to the Banyan Onsen Retreat. It's spacious (75 sq.m) with a private onsen, but not as big as other hotel's top suites.
Here's what I liked about Swissotel Nankai Osaka:
1. Super connected and awesome views.
2. Lots of malls and Dotonbori are just a walk away.
3. They had pajamas for everyone!
4. Prestige Suite had an electric head massager and hair straightener.
5. The front desk staff was really nice.
6. King Plus bed (Double Twin XL). – at Kyoto City Higashiyama Ward, Kyoto
The Prestige Suite at Swissotel Nankai Osaka is on the 34th floor, the highest room floor, and has awesome views. It's super spacious for Japan, and the location is excellent with great train/bus connections & walkable to attractions like Dotonbori. – at Osaka-shi Naniwa-ku, Osaka

Been quietly using a personal bot for a while to figure out mileage requirements across FFPs for different routes. Started as something just for my own travel planning, but it has now evolved to scan multiple award charts, routing rules and even unpublished patterns to give a fairly accurate idea of how many miles you should need.
At the moment it is focused only on mileage requirements, not availability. Think of it as a fast way to sanity check which program makes sense before you even start searching.
You can try it on WhatsApp at +1 (323) 554-4341. Just send a simple hi and it will guide you.
Since the data set is quite large, there can be errors. If you spot something off, you can report it directly by going into the FFP details or just typing
[Report] - your message
The system is designed to self review these reports, validate against official sources and trusted blogs, and update itself without manual intervention.
Also plugged in ongoing promos like SQ Spontaneous Escapes, so wherever applicable it should reflect discounted mileage automatically.
Keeping it free for now with no caps, but may introduce a daily limit if usage starts hitting the free tier limits. I do have some interesting plans lined up for this going forward.
PS: No personal data is stored. Phone numbers are hashed and cannot be reverse engineered.
St Regis KL has a good buffet breakfast, not much Indian dishes. They also have some made to order dishes as well.
Egg benedict and Steak&Egg was nice. – at Kuala Lumpur City, Kuala Lumpur Federal Territory
St.Regis known for butler service, these are some inclusions from butler desk at St.Regis KL.
- 4 Garments Pressing per day
- Complimentary beverages like coffee, tea, milo, etc.
- Packing/Unpacking service. – at Kuala Lumpur City, Kuala Lumpur Federal Territory
Luxury hotels like St. Regis KL have these kinds of fancy things! 🤩✨
This is a Toto Washlet remote control/electric bidet. 🚽🚿 – at Kuala Lumpur City, Kuala Lumpur Federal Territory
