How Detailed are Your Finances? – DSP 363

It’s possible to have a nearly infinite recursion of productivity vs. financial data. You can break down how much you could save per float by switching to a cheaper q-tip, but in the end, is it worth it? 

Ashkahn and Graham discuss how they handle financial details at Float On and where they emphasize detail over broad strokes and convenience. 

Groupon Revisited – DSP 362

In a previous episode, Graham and Ashkahn shared their experience running Groupons with Float On from like… 6 years ago.

But how does a float center do that? Where should they look? Is there just a lab that they can send their float solution to? Are all labs the same? How much does it cost? 

Ashkahn and Graham take on the difficult task of making sense of microbiology testing laboratories, regulatory institutions, and acronyms, all so you don’t have to.
