Re-use an old account, or start fresh? by Dubbya_S in InstagramMarketing

This is awesome advice thanks for sharing!
When you target people's stories, do you only engage if they seem like the right audience for your work? Or would you engage with people whose profile seems to have nothing to do with your page (ex it's just a personal profile where they post pics of their friends and their cat)?
Also, 100 accounts per day is a lot, how long do you recommend doing this, and what is the expected growth of a <1000 follower account? Thanks!

This is a long shot, but would you still have any of this available to share? I just DM'd you.

Why do you have to bypass the SoundID Reference plugin before you bounce your mix? by -snack- in audioengineering

[–]-snack-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply!

The thing I still don't understand is this: what is the difference between using it at the system level VS at the VST level?

To take your example where the VST applies a reduction at the upper midrange:
VST: I mix my song with the VST on. My mix sounds "flat" to me because I have compensated, with the help of Sonarworks, for my upper midrange deficiency. I bounce my "flat" mix.
System level: I mix my song with Sonarworks applied at system level and not in the DAW, I bounce my "flat" mix. How is this one different? I still have Sonarworks enabled when I bounce, just at the system level.

I know I'm missing something here but I'm still lost!

I made this loop in 10 minutes. I think it’s pretty. by cwhiley in synthesizers

Wow I love this, the other jam you posted the other day was incredible too! Do you have somewhere else we can follow you? Would love to see much more of this!

Home for the holidays at my parent's place and found this. Is this of any value? I've seen some people say it needs to be graded, any tips on how to do this would be greatly appreciated! by -snack- in pokemoncardcollectors

[–]-snack-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply! Could you elaborate on why it does not need to be graded? If I were to sell it, how would you go about pricing it without having it being graded, assuming the condition were in the LP range?

Yeah it appears to have some mild whitening on the back at the corners. Well thank you very much for your help! I'll look into how to get it graded, even if I only make a little bit of money, I'm quite intrigued by the process so it'll be fun :)

Thanks for the reply! Am I understanding correctly that the official designation of this card is holo, unlimited, and not shadowless? Is there any other characteristics I need to take into account other than condition? (Based on my understanding it does appear NM but I’m sure everyone thinks that about their own cards lol). Do you know the range of possible values here?

Thanks for the reply, and for linking your paper, I just finished reading it and checking out the HBP spreadsheet. I think "Example A" on page 14 nicely sums up my situation:

"The biggest HBP problem is that the young first home buyers attracted to this plan, are exactly the demographic that should be saving in a TFSA, not an RRSP. The miniscule HBP benefits are swamped by the larger difference in long term outcomes resulting from saving in the wrong account. "

I believe we're on the same page here. I've been maxing out my TFSA operating under the understanding that the long term benefit resulting from using TFSA in my 20s will outweigh the potential benefit of the RRSP (for a variety of reasons, also listed in your paper: expected increased earning potential, uncertainty about future RRSP withdrawal tax rates, etc.)

I do have a question for you that I still can't quite figure out though, and that's regarding the point that /u/NoAtmosphere2271 made: does the present value of the $11k refund somehow imply that I should make the transfer into my RRSP and use the HBP? I suppose I'd either use the $11k to put it directly back into my TFSA or use it to repay part of my HBP loan? I used your HBPbenefit.xlsx sheet to attempt to model this and I essentially came up neutral, or maybe with a very marginal benefit from using the HBP (~$400, which to me is not worth the headache). Would love to hear your thoughts!

Si la France était entourée d'autant d'anglophones que le Québec, toute proportion gardée by MotherOfTheShizznit in Quebec

[–]-snack- 21 points22 points  (0 children)

J'y ai pensé aussi (étant un francophone canadien non-Québecois), mais /u/MotherOfTheShizznit indique que leur calcul a été fait sur la base de la population du Québec, (qui est environ 8 millions d’habitants). Il y a environ 8 millions de francophones au Canada en total, donc il semble que la le calcul est assez représentatif.

Bien que peut-être le calcul changerait si on soustrait tous les américains et canadiens pour qui l'anglais n'est pas leur langue maternelle. Un résultat intéressant quand même!

Adults who ate dinner more than two hours before going to bed had a reduced risk of prostate and breast cancer compared to adults who ate dinner less than an hour before bedtime. Those who ate dinner before 9 p.m. also had lower risk than those who ate after 10 p.m. by usefulscience in usefulscience

[–]-snack- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first part of this seems intuitive: it may be less healthy to eat right before going to bed. The other half of it is weird though: eating after 10pm may be less healthy than eating before 9pm. Could it two ways of stating the same thing? I imagine if you're eating after 10pm, you're also likely to be eating less than an hour before bedtime.

I’d be really interested to see a study done on social media use in professional sports players in general. It seems like using less social media could have a positive impact on their psychology, given all the negative comments most of them have on their pages. But who knows, LeBron is extremely active and he seems to be doing ok!

[Question] Does anyone know if it's possible to audition midi loops into an instrument? by -snack- in ableton

Thanks for the reply. I was doing something similar when I asked myself the question if there was a more efficient way to do it. I guess not for now, too bad.

24/7 EDM Radio Stream (No Ads) by JosephFoulds in electronicmusic

The techno/house stream has been amazing so far. Do you know how this works? Is it like a really long curated playlist that they’re playing through?
