<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://sfba.social/@karlauerbach" class="u-url mention">@<span>karlauerbach</span></a></span> I help a person who uses Quicken, and for *years* they have been getting duplicate entries and nobody seems to have any idea what to do about it. I did a bit of spelunking into interchange formats for this, but couldn't get a person on a line who could speak the same language. And Quicken has essentially really one job…</p>

I had distilled it down to like four different commands. And from discussions trying to explain it to them, it was clear that they weren't trying to understand it, or articulate what they found confusing.</p><p>In general, I agree most source control is beyond normal people as it's neither their job to care, or understand it.</p>

Had scripts and simple instructions on how to do everything you needed (less than a page), and people still refused to "understand" it.</p>
<p>it is 2234 GMT and you know what this means? it's time to prepare to melt some magnesium</p><p>this time i'm going to dry the magnesium and the flux first so that it doesn't violently get all over... everything</p>

<p>I am busy today writing our yearly charitable checks. Many of those are drawn from our qualified (IRA, SEP) accounts as qualified (no tax) distributions.</p><p>I'm using Intuit Quicken on a Mac (M2, latest Sequoia OS version) to do the check writing/printing.</p><p>It is amazing that Quicken can't seem to align itself with our brokerage accounts, despite it using an online link. The differences between what Quicken displays and what the brokerage houses display can be thousands and thousands of dollars.</p><p>In fact the dissonance was so bad that I deleted some brokerage accounts out of Quicken and recreated them - that reduced, but did not eliminate the dollar dissonance.</p>
