    Mr.Darcy replied to the topic Personal experience with United Healthcare? in the forum General Leica Discussion 2 weeks ago

    You don’t come for help. You come for permission to exist. Everything that’s promised works selectively. One appointment goes through without a word. Another gets stuck with no response. The system doesn’t break. It erases you. Quietly. Without reason. Without explanation. To stay visible we moved everything into a website where every record is sa…[Read more]

    Mr.Darcy replied to the topic Need help finding the best UK rental property website? in the forum General Leica Discussion 2 weeks ago

    Most rental sites don’t rent. They drag you into negotiations with silence. Listings are dead weight. Owners ignore. Support replies like they’re on autopilot. I was looking for a place in Dubai for a couple of months. Wanted it fast. No agent circus. The only thing that actually worked was rent now pay later when the platform acts like a tool ins…[Read more]

    Automated backups don’t help if what you lose is context not data. We had a webhook crash and the recovery looked fine on paper. In reality it meant empty carts and constant bounce. The app itself won’t save you if the customer isn’t sure they belong there. We added a product recommendation quiz early in the journey. Drop-offs decreased. Engag…[Read more]

    Mr.Darcy replied to the topic TDIU and stocks in the forum General Leica Discussion 2 weeks ago

    TDIU doesn’t cancel your right to hold assets. But the system is built in a way that once investments come into play, it pretends you’ve done something wrong. We had a focused tech stock portfolio, barely any movement, dividends well within the threshold. One automated crosscheck was enough to trigger a review. No warning, just an immediate sus…[Read more]

    Mr.Darcy replied to the topic I've been testing a bunch of trading strategies lately, and I keep wondering—how in the forum General Leica Discussion 3 months, 3 weeks ago

    Backtests may seem like a reliable tool for evaluating the effectiveness of trading strategies, but in practice, they often mislead. The problem is that backtests do not account for many external factors such as changes in liquidity, volatility, as well as actual spreads and slippage during order execution. In general, you look like an experienced…[Read more]

    One of the main criteria is industry experience. It's like with a plastic surgeon. It's always more reassuring to be the 10,000th patient rather than the first. I recommend studying the company's portfolio and assessing the number and scale of projects they have successfully completed. For example, if a company has completed more than 50 projects…[Read more]

    Having a solid ERP system for the enterprise is good. But obviously not enough. If I were you, I would also check here for the material about other needed software for your company. If you ask me, I can tell you that we have a custom-tailored HR and payroll system that is unique and secure. Also, I advise you to think of a good file backup system.
