    Nope. Not in this case. The order was broken up into multiple transactions (by Amazon). The invoice only had a single value for tax and another for discounts. Only way to get to the right # was to take the sub-transaction, calculate its tax and subtract the overall discount.
    Aaron Parecki
    oh gosh I forgot about tax... no sales tax in Oregon so all my transactions are a lot easier to find!

    Go to your orders,
    Click "open invoice" for all orders within range you are curious about

    Look at the bottom for card transactions and you will find the amount that hits your bank. At that point you have a bank tx that roughly aligns with a subset of the order

    unideal

    yeah also if you keep the email shipping notifications those usually contain the dollar amount charged and have a link to the orders, so searching email ends up being the fastest. I've gotten in the habit of keeping those emails around for this now.

    Hey @AmazonHelp - I should be able to tie a bank account transaction from amazon back to an order. Instead, I've spent over an hour on chat support trying to track it down.
    Aaron Parecki
    ugh yeah this is the worst, when they run a transaction for multiple orders or partially fulfilled orders, so the dollar amount doesn't match anything in your order history!

    what was the difference? You needed one line to use it, and had no control over how much trash gets downloaded.
    Aaron Parecki
    One requires installing software on your computer, the other requires only a text editor.

    Not saying hotlinking 3rd party JS is a good idea, but it was a lot more accessible to experiment and learn that way.

    Remember never having to unwind npm dependencies?

    I literally don't know what this means and I'm okay with that

    Finding reusable JavaScript components to drop into projects was so much easier when everyone was using jQuery
    Aaron Parecki
    Remember when the instructions for using some random JS library was include this <script> tag and not npm install randomthingwith100dependencies

    my rule for light automation is IT MUST HAVE PHYSICAL/RADIO remotes AND a bridge for our local area network only AND operate on a standard, not custom app

    so we use lutron caseta.

    i mean, i *know* how tech companies work, thatโ€™s why i avoid them ๐Ÿง

    At the beginning of the pandemic I went through some painful personal stuff and would often go out at night for long walks because no one was around and I couldnโ€™t sleep anyway. One night I was walking

    Stop taking your interface design cues from Material Design. Google are successful because of aggressive business practices, not because they know what a text input looks like.

I've been tracking my location since 2008 and I wrote 100 songs in 100 days. I've spoken at conferences around the world about owning your data, OAuth, quantified self, and explained why R is a vowel. Read more.
