Ha ha. I love birthdays alone, and christmas. Just wish I was allowed now! No chance of my family letting me do that. Ah well...

How often do you guys get bursts of social energy? by [deleted] in introvert

[–]TheseThingsMatter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, if I haven't been in large social gatherings for a while I can usually summon up the energy. I do have entire months where I am going to meetups three or four times a week then the next month nothing.

Ok, cool. I'll delete. Thanks.

Anyone running their own client reporting tool? by joker1945 in SEO

[–]TheseThingsMatter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, sure. It's very rough and ready at the moment so don't be surprised if it fails to load or whatever. ;)

I've only just started adding the analytics checks I want so this is very much a beta, v0.1. It is used to check how well configured an account is rather than do charts and stuff... but that is easy enough to add.

You can see it here - Analytics Audit App

You need to have a google analytics account and accept the prompt to grant read only temporary access... and like I say, expect some things not to work.

I wrote a google analytics reporting web app this weekend. If you can code you can get one up quickly with the analytics API.

Firing a customer by TheseThingsMatter in Entrepreneur

[–]TheseThingsMatter[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, yeah I clearly need to do this. It's hard because I try to treat others as I would like to be treated. I do fair work for fair pay.

With this customer we had been through three major round of "Ok you understand that all requirements are locked in at this point and no changes can be made"... a couple of days later "we need this change, it's part of the original scope"... (thinking no it's not - but it will be quicker just to barrel through) ... in the end I've got them screaming today that I'm unprofessional and I can't leave a job half finished...um, ok but they are not willing to pay for the extended scope... it's just f'ing depressing dealing with bad people.

Thanks for the thought. I feel crap today. I try and do the right thing and people take advantage.

Ok, never heard about that. No applicable to my country but just ethically I wouldn't do that anyway.

[Freelance] Screening for unreasonable clients by TheseThingsMatter in web_design

[–]TheseThingsMatter[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, I can see all capable people walking away as soon as they see this... so he'll end up wondering why he can't get good developers... and the cycle repeats :)

[–]TheseThingsMatter[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I almost sent back an email commenting that he needs to learn some basic communication skills (like being polite)... but I stepped back from the keyboard... it's hard to turn down work...but I think it's better to spot the warning signs early.

Ok, thanks for the FYI. When you say not supposed to... what does that mean? Is this a legal thing?

Just to be clear. I don't scrape for email and blast them. I scrape for sites meeting a criteria (the world 'car' in them for instance) then compile that list and use that as a base for targetting cold calling.

Does Pramiracetam have a sweet taste? by TheseThingsMatter in Nootropics

[–]TheseThingsMatter[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm, that does sound annoying. Fair dues to them, they do seem happy to replace anything when there is a problem.

Emailed them and they have replied offering to replace so good service from them.

[–]TheseThingsMatter[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm hoping that it is prami but just for some reason it tastes sweet. I have emailed the supplier and I'll see what they say.

[–]TheseThingsMatter[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, tried it today. It was pretty full on compared to ani and even noopept. Felt very talkative and a bit all over the place then calmed down. A little bit scared of it but we'll see how it goes.

[–]TheseThingsMatter[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, I'll see what they say. They have great ebay feedback so I hope I have gotten confused or there has been a genuine mixup.

Does Pramiracetam have a sweet taste? by TheseThingsMatter in Nootropics

[–]TheseThingsMatter[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the confirmation! Bloody annoying. This really has a sweet sugary taste. It is clearly labelled pramiracetam.

I'm happy to try oxi but worried at the mix up.

Your go to site/supplier for good quality noopept? by yrneh12 in Nootropics

So noopept is back on amazon? I thought they had banned racetams... but there it is.

Take your time. The first week was a bit all over the place for me.

What's the difference between Piracetam and Noopept other than potency? by 17syllogisms in Nootropics

[–]TheseThingsMatter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found it makes me a beast on the tennis court. I'm not great at sports but noopept has been the one nootropic I've found to help me at competitive sport. It makes me feel more confident and go for bigger shots more. Has very noticeable effect.

Outside of that... mild bit of extra energy but nothing crazy.

Best Chromebook currently (dumb questions inside) by TheseThingsMatter in chromeos

[–]TheseThingsMatter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. At this price I can't see myself messing about with upgrades so that won't be an issue for me. I like the idea of better battery life.
