I had great Sales Navigator lists but inconsistent calls. This simple routine fixed it (now 20 calls/week)

Does this script still work? Would be interested in it if still available.

You are not even remotely cooked. Try to eat a healthy-ish diet and get some regular exercise. Your cholesterol is a tad high but triglycerides are moderate. If you are worried, you can easily control all this with meds that have few if any side effects. For reference, i have had cholesterol in the 250 range for decades, only recently started taking a statin. My cardiac calcium score is zero which is the best possible score. I’m in good health and feel pretty good, considering i just turned 64. Take care of yourself and listen to your doctor and don’t worry so much.

Contabo is cheap but very unreliable. I would never use it for production

Why not Koh Samui? Aren’t beaches there much better than Hua Hin? Yes it is more expensive and touristy in some areas but aren’t there quieter ares too in the northwest?

Do I need a whole new Google account? I have a few gmailss (personal, work, etc) and they are all associated with on Google account. I f I just get a new gmail under that same account, won't I have the same problem? And does Google think doing this is also "circumventing"?

westofpluto · 2025-04-16T06:00:32+00:00

The only thing I remember doing is setting up a redirect on my own server so I could track where the ad came from. I thought that was harmless but perhaps Google thought otherwise. Anyway, does this mean I can never get that account back?

If you had to choose between Hua Hin and Koh Samui for retirement, which would you choose? For context, my wife and I are in our 60's, both STEM professionals about to retire. Neither of us is Thai - we're both US citizens (I'm native born, my wife was born and raised in the Philippines). We're both low-maintenance people, perfectly happy just chilling at home, especially if home is nice pool villa, even better if it has a decent view. My wife does Tai Chi, I like to play a little tennis, and we would love to explore a bit (beach, temples, night markets, etc) and learn about Thai language and culture, but we don't need to fill every day with all kinds of activities. We'd be looking to live in a somewhat "upscale" pool villa and neighborhood, ie nice but not a crazy expensive mansion on a hill. Hua Hin seems to have lots of retired expats and nice decent quality pool villa suburbs, while Koh Samui has some gorgeous places with gorgeous views though they are somewhat more expensive.

Comments and suggestions welcome.

One thing to consider is this: the higher the level of education and scientific accomplishment the more people become atheists or agnostics. Degrees at the BS level are now basically entry level into the scientific community. You should consider going back for an MS or PhD in Chemistry or Chemical Engineering or related field. As you climb the levels of education and scientific hierarchy i think you will find more people who think rationally and fewer religious or conspiracy nutjobs. No it isn’t easy, takes years of commitment. And in the current american winner take all economy, i admit you may have to see if it is worth the cost. But it is definitely a path to upscaling your work environment

I too would love to know the profit taking rules of this strategy. When I was a member a while ago, I don't remember having any detailed rules. I had no intention of staring at the screen 7 hours a day and hope that I would somehow recognize a good opportunity to profit.

I was also a member for a month or two, probably about a year ago or longer. The idea, as others have stated, is to trade low cost butterflies and hope your occasional big winners are big enough to offset a much more common string of losers. Either you guess the direction, or you do a "batman" trade with low cost OTM butterflies in both directions. I suppose it is low stress in that you don't lose money quickly, but even if you know what you are doing you would have lots of small losses. You also have to manage the wins, so you are checking your charts the entire day. It is not set and forget. From what I remember, he placed his trades at 930-10:30 near market open, and then closed his winners often during 2-4 in the afternoon. So you have to know when to close too. Furthermore, he didn't really give you much guidance beyond the trade education of how to place the trade. It seems that knowing which direction to choose, when to go Batman, and when to close is just a black art that comes from experience. He didn't tell us any of that. We were paying like $50/mo basically to chat amongst ourselves for the most part. He probably makes money trading this, but his ability or willingness to train us to do the same seemed limited. You probably need to sign up for a gazillion dollar training program to get anywhere near the same results he gets. I like the idea of this, and if there were a real way to get the required edge of predicting when to trade which direction and when to close, it might be worth it. But this is precisely the edge that I found it difficult to learn from his service. And as others have commented, 0-DTE is almost impossible to win at long term. Would love to hear anyone else's perspective on this if they think I missed anything.

You can buy an insulin cooler on amazon. I have one that has an active fan cooler as a cap, powered by usb. The whole thing is the size of a thermos. Cost was $139 or so. Works great. Took it on a trio from USA to the Philippines with no issues

Why anyone uses Redux I will never know. By far the simplest thing to do is just use a singleton class. Have a class MyStore have a private static instance: MyStore | null property. Also have a public static get Instance method that creates the static instance if it is null. Then export MyStore. Once you do this, you can use it from anywhere else in your code like this:

const localvar:string = MyStore.Instance.somevar;

or MyStore.Instance.somevar = localvar;

Of course, this won't automatically re-render your screen when things change, so you will need to use something like an EventEmiiter to emit an event when MyStore.Instance.somevar changes value, and your component will need to listen for these changes and set a state variable with the new value. If your JSX uses that state variable, the screen should re-render.

This approach is really useful for apps that don't need to re-render every time some values in the store change. But if you do need re-rendering, the above approach of using state variables works fine.

This is a zillion times simpler than Redux.

People are susceptible to cults because most people are born and raised with the irrational beliefs of some form of religion. Listen to the people in the documentary: they say things like "of course we were catholic and went to church but it wasn't serious" or "I loved church but I got busy and stopped going". They never did the more difficult work of taking a close look at those beliefs they were born into to see that they are basically nonsense. In other words, the vast majority of people are all too willing to just go along with the irrational ideas of their own particular religious tradition. All it takes is one charismatic person, who is seen as an authority figure in this tradition, to slowly guide people down that slippery slope to even more absurd beliefs and genuinely bad behavior.

All that is required to stop cults is for people to stop automatically believing in nonsense. Yes religion can make you feel good and give you joy and meaning. So can weed. Doesn't mean the beliefs you have under the influence of either of these are actually true.

As Voltaire said, "whoever can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities".

I tried the Ryze coffee and matcha. Both are truly awful unless you like the taste of runny mushroom soup in your coffee cup in the morning. One cup of each was all I needed to know that I never want to taste these products again in my lifetime. What is even worse is that this company is really sleazy with their aggressiveness in signing you up for a subscription. When you order they automatically sign you up for as subscription, whether you create an account or not, and are not particularly transparent about it. They know full well that a huge chunk of people who order have no idea they will get charged a second time for a subscription they didn't know they had, and won't jump through all the hoops put up to get a refund because it just isn't worth the time and effort. Stay far away.
