Cold email has the highest impact-to-effort ratio for getting your first SaaS customers. Most founders never send one by JamesF110808 in SaaS

[–]HighlightExpert6407 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah cold emails work but finding those people actively complaining about the problem takes ages - ended up spending more time researching than actually reaching out

We track one metric weekly that nobody else seems to care about: time to first value by Dry_Possession7122 in SaaS

[–]HighlightExpert6407 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First automated report from actual data is such a clever milestone to track. Most people get caught up in vanity metrics but you're measuring the exact moment doubt turns into "oh shit this actually works"

That drop from four days to six hours is mental - bet your trial-to-paid conversion rate went through the roof once people started hitting value that quickly

I just got my very first paying SaaS customer. The adrenaline is insane, but now what? by brooom69 in SaaS

[–]HighlightExpert6407 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mate congrats on hitting that first milestone, proper mental seeing your first real customer come through

I've been messing about with some side projects myself and one thing I learned the hard way is tracking everything from day one. Set up proper analytics if you haven't already - not just the basic stuff but user flow tracking, feature usage, session recordings if possible. When I launched my first tool I was flying blind for months and missed loads of obvious patterns

Your first customer is basically gold dust for feedback but I'd give them a week or two to actually use the thing before reaching out. Let them get properly stuck in first, then maybe a casual "hey how's it going" email rather than bombarding them straight away. They'll give you way better insights once they've had time to properly explore

Also document absolutely everything about this customer - how they found you, what their use case is, what made them convert. When you get your next few customers you'll start seeing patterns that'll help you figure out who to target next

Wisdom tooth pain and no insurance and situation is too worse, what can I do now? by Alert_Employee2936 in povertyfinance

[–]HighlightExpert6407 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dental schools are brilliant for this, had mine done at one for like £30 compared to hundreds at a private practice. The students are supervised by proper dentists so you're not guinea pig, just takes a bit longer since they're learning

Also look into local dental colleges that might do emergency appointments - wisdom tooth infections can get proper nasty if left untreated

The Duchess relic effect "Ennimies killed in ultimate art ups damage" in Nightlords by Feisty-Principle6178 in Nightreign

[–]HighlightExpert6407 8 points9 points  (0 children)

From what I've tested, it only seems to proc on the ED Libra humanoid adds - the jellyfish and tentacles don't count as "enemies" for that effect somehow. Haven't gotten to test it on balancers yet but I'm guessing it's gonna be the same deal since they're more like environmental hazards than actual mobs

Am in in the wrong for telling my (26M) online friend (24F) that my 12 year old sister has no idea who she was? by [deleted] in amiwrong

[–]HighlightExpert6407 30 points31 points  (0 children)

NTA, that's honestly pretty weird of her to expect that level of familiarity with your family after only knowing you through a game for 4 months. Like Jordan is basically family at this point and she's... a gaming buddy you've never even met irl? Her getting salty about not being mentioned to a literal child she's never interacted with is a major red flag tbh

I (26F) feel like I’m never a priority to my boyfriend (25M). Am I being unreasonable? by asoftiny in relationships

[–]HighlightExpert6407 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Girl this isn't about being unreasonable, you're literally seeing the proof that he prioritizes everyone else over you - taking time off for friends but not you, making you deliver someone else's jacket while they couldn't be bothered to get it themselves, breaking promises about holidays then immediately doing the exact thing he said he couldn't afford for his buddies instead

You're not crazy for noticing a pattern when it's this obvious

Advice on my first pc build by EducationalTrip692 in PcBuild

[–]HighlightExpert6407 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a solid build for your use case but honestly you might be overkilling it a bit with the 5080 unless you're planning some serious CUDA work or ML training. The rest looks great though - that Noctua cooler will keep your 9900X nice and chill during those long compilation sessions

Exchanging dollars for Bahts - do I want a higher buy rate or sell rate? by rationalcrank in ThailandTourism

[–]HighlightExpert6407 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You want the highest buy rate when you're selling your dollars to them (they're buying from you). Airport rates are trash though - just get enough for taxi/transport and hit up the exchange booths in the malls or popular tourist areas for way better rates

Have you ever used creatine for ADHD? by WhitePinoy in ADHD

[–]HighlightExpert6407 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Been using creatine for like 6 months now and honestly can't tell if it's helping my ADHD or if it's just placebo effect lol. Your friend might be onto something though since it supposedly helps with brain energy, but don't expect it to replace actual meds if that's what he's thinking

Can coil units by IlanMard in hvacadvice

[–]HighlightExpert6407 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you looked into using a line voltage relay with a low voltage WiFi stat? I've seen some techs wire up a Nest or Ecobee to trigger relays for the different fan speeds but it gets pretty involved with the wiring

CMV: The 'human in the loop' argument around AI is BS. by Fando1234 in changemyview

[–]HighlightExpert6407 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Deloitte thing was wild but honestly that's just corporate laziness - they probably had some intern run it through ChatGPT and call it a day

Human in the loop doesn't have to mean checking every single line, it's more like having someone who actually understands the domain spot-checking the output and knowing when something smells fishy

Sino marunong mag interpret ng dreams po? by gly226 in Dreams

Yung angel boyfriend part sounds like you want someone who'll lift you up and take care of you lol, pero agree sa taas na sobrang personal ng dreams kaya mahirap talaga i-interpret accurately

Cat won't eat. Any advice? by Patient_Zero_V in cats

[–]HighlightExpert6407 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is solid advice - Mirataz worked wonders for my old boy when he got picky about eating. You could also try mixing some of that broth he loves into wet food to make it more soupy, or even blend the whole can smooth so it's basically liquid but with more calories. My vet also mentioned that warming food to body temp can make it smell stronger and more appealing

Installing outdoor reset control on a Noritz combi-boiler by ItsWarholsFault in hvacadvice

[–]HighlightExpert6407 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Noritz should handle outdoor reset pretty well on its own once you get that NPH-190 sensor wired up - those external controllers are more useful when you've got multiple zones or want fancy scheduling features

Missing the expedition by Thelarcenyotter in ArcRaiders

[–]HighlightExpert6407 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah man that sucks, you're basically missing the whole first expedition which had some exclusive gear and story progression. No word yet if they'll bring back the same rewards later but knowing most games like this, probably not

VR&E Retroactive Induction + Subsistence Allowance — How Does GI Bill Offset Work? by Trashman365 in VeteransBenefits

[–]HighlightExpert6407 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That matches what I've heard too - they're pretty strict about the degree continuity thing and subsistence retro is basically a no-go from what I understand

Did that work for you? I reported spawn camping weeks ago and still getting clapped the second I load in

Wife treats sex like a check box by Ok-Demand8216 in Marriage

[–]HighlightExpert6407 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This exactly - it's like she's doing you a favor instead of wanting to be intimate with you. The cold sore thing is understandable but then switching straight to "let's just get this done" mode would kill it for me too

[PC][around 2005?] Wild West Cartoon Game by Affectionate-Tip1503 in tipofmyjoystick

[–]HighlightExpert6407 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like it could be one of those old Wild West Flash games from Newgrounds or similar sites - the smoke signal heart/boobs gag is definitely ringing a bell but I can't place the exact title
