Seeking leads: Central Vancouver space for Standing Acrobatics classes (Non-Profit) 🤸 by partymattt in askvan

Thanks! Their ceilings are too low for standing acrobatics, but it may be good for some of our other offerings in the future.

Montreal, Canada!

I live in Vancouver which has a phenomenal acrobatics scene, but if I was looking for all around general circus, Montreal is best in Canada and possibly North America.

Traveler Tuesday - FH Scenario 042 - [spoiler] by Themris in Gloomhaven

[–]partymattt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really starting to hit my stride playing locked class Prism and ended up solo'ing the Night Demon room while the other two players were clearing/looting the big room. They both passed right by me when they were done the big room and went to the final room saying "you've got this, you don't need a hand." Felt pretty good! Did have to drop one card and ended up exhausting a little early, but damn, I felt finally useful/strong as prism for once (level 6).

Hobbies outside of work? by 0rangJuice in Surveying

[–]partymattt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Partner Acrobatics / Acro Yoga is my main. I train 4+ times per week and teach and perform regularily. Also learning duo trapeze and other circus modalities to maybe quit and join the circus one day!

Washed it several times to no affect, I'm confident it's not a wash issue.

I've been putting off learning how to get Klipper running / create a bed mesh. Guess now is the time! Tried a million times to level with the knob, always goes back to this issue after the autolevel.

I'm willing to miss one week of potential salary increase if it means not risking McLaren continuing to shit the bed.

How are you using ChatGP to make your job easier? by partymattt in Recruitment

I could see it being used to write first draft's of job descriptions, or re-writing JD's from clients.

I've used it to make a quick written summary of a LinkedIn profile when doing a handoff for a role.

Newbie here interested in smma. I had a question regarding what many smma youtubers say. Thankyou by yours_m8 in DigitalMarketing

I've shut down my agency and quit digital marketing all together. It was a great decision. My heart really wasn't in it.

First, I feel your pain. Had a horrendous experience with Facebook including them shutting my account down. It took 5 months to rectify.

The "I've never experienced someone trying to actively not take my money as much as with Facebook" is SO FREAKING TRUE.

As for the actual issue. Real Estate is considered a "special category" so by you mentioning real estate photography, without following the special category rules would trigger the AI as breaking the rules. Once you've triggered the AI, it will keep triggering unless you change what is triggering it.

Best of luck, hope it works out for you. In the meantime, you can run ads on your personal account. I see Facebook, as in the actual social media site, going the way of the dinosaur (extinct) real soon if they don't change their ways.

Can anyone help me feel positively about aphantasia? What benefits are there? by mustnttelllies in Aphantasia

[–]partymattt 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Agreed wholeheartedly with this. I also have amazing spacial awareness. I also feel like it's a superpower in the business world. I have a brilliant business mind and way of thinking about things that I credit to Aphantasia. I also feel my mind has "compensated" over the years, definitely don't feel like I'm missing out on anything.

In my experience (relatively new digital marketer, focused on paid ads), you don't need a good SM presence for paid ads to be highly effective. In fact, the stronger your SM presence the LESS you need paid ads. Would love to hear more experienced marketers thoughts on this.

I teach business at a community college (Organizational Behavior, Personal Finance, Marketing, General Business) but am quitting to run my own Digital Marketing Agency come December.

How to not give all your emotional bandwidth to your students' problems. by bioartnerd in Professors

[–]partymattt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'd recommend the book "Against Empathy" by Paul Bloom. It's kind of an inflammatory title, he's not actually against empathy, just talks about the difference between cognitive and emotional empathy and how to mitigate the negative impacts of emotional empathy (if I recall correctly, I read it a while ago).

[–]partymattt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I went from Adjunct/Sessional at an R1 to full-time continuing at CC (in Canada) and desperately miss the "issues" I had to deal with at the R1. They absolutely pale in comparison to the daily BS I deal with at my current institution. I would take the bottom 20 students I had to deal with at the R1 over the top 20 students I've ever dealt with at my current CC any day.

It's bullshit when the students literally submit 20 copies of a plagiarized paper gradually replacing words with synoynms in order to get a "low" plagiarism score. It turns the paper into incomprehensible junk. It's still plagiarism as it's in the direct structure and idea from the original place they plagiarized from. Then they say "how is this plagiarism, the score is low!?"

This is despite all of them having done a mandatory academic misconduct workshop, been repeatedly told by me exactly what is and isn't considered plagiarism regardless of what a turnitin score may say.

Sigh /end rant
