    From the article:

    "A Hollywood director convicted of defrauding Netflix of $11m (£8.3m) last year has been sentenced to two and a half years in prison.

    Carl Erik Rinsch was accused of using Netflix funds intended to complete a science fiction series to buy cars, cryptocurrency and other luxuries for himself.

    The 48-year-old, best known for the 2013 film 47 Ronin, was convicted of federal fraud and money laundering for misusing funds.

    Rinsch faced up to 90 years in prison, but was expected to receive a lighter sentence.

    Judge Jay Rakoff also sentenced Rinsch to three years of supervised release, $11m in forfeitures, and a $700 fine."

    =================================

    It must be nice to be rich. If you get cought, it’s just “oops I’ll give it back plus some pocket change.”

    “Today’s sentence sends a deterrent message: Fraud will not be tolerated,” US Attorney Jay Clayton said in a statement.

    No it does not.

    I know this is a bit old, but I just came across your post this morning.

    I’ve been using Wekan for a long time with a tiny bit of automation. Here’s how I have it set up.

    Everything starts on the Big To-Do List, getting sorted by priority. For things I want done today, I move them to the Do Today list. I have a rule set up to move cards put in that list to the Do Today board.

    This is the board I have up on my PC all the time. It’s designed to have zero distractions. The only things on here are what I intend to get done today or what’s been started but paused that I intend to do in the next few days. If anything looks like it’s not going to get done, it immediately go to The Future which sends it to the Inbox of the Big To-Do List. To keep things decluttered, completed things also get moved to Completed on the Big To-Do List.
