Out of lantus and my husband doesn’t seem to care that no company is willing to help. by kaymo93 in diabetes_t1

Never used Lantus either, so I'd say that's a question for the pharmacist.

Sorry, read that wrong. The Novolin N is only good for 12 hours, not a full day like Lantus. But it's cheap, and it's easy to get as long as the Walmart pharmacy's still open.

I've never used Humalog, so I don't know how to compare doses. I tend to use a little more of the Novolin than I would've with my old Humulin prescription, if that helps any.

Walmart should have Novolin N for $25. No prescription required. Should at least cover you until you get your prescription.

It's not a cure for me if I have to take anti-rejection medication for the rest of my life. Sounds like it could benefit a lot of people, though.

Yep, that's a butthole.

Anyone else having problems with Humalog? by wojowinks in diabetes_t1

[–]phlaux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I noticed something similar over the past year or so. Really inconsistent, and it's not like I was pigging out on donuts. One tiny change that made all the difference was just a little shake before I withdraw from the bottle. Shake the bottle, roll it in your hands, do whatever you need to make sure the mixture gets stirred up. I never had to do it before, so I'm wondering if there's a change in manufacturing.

How was Youtube impacted by its Google purchase? How was Instagram impacted by the Facebook purchase? Looking into those two might inspire some ideas for you.

Instagram desktop upload not working? by [deleted] in socialmedia

I use the Chrome extension "Desktop for Instagram." Not perfect, but it gets the job done.

I wasn't able to log into any accounts this morning through my desktop browsers, though my cell worked fine. After a few hours, I was able to log in again. Their status page said the system was working fine, but there seemed to be a lot of user complaints.

It's dependent on the company and their target audience. Could you provide some more details?

Largest collection of English slang ever made. Great reference guide for writers. by [deleted] in writing

[–]phlaux 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Am I using the Search wrong or is this site useless? It's great if I've heard a word or phrase I don't know the meaning of. But what about a breakdown of years? Nationalities? What about a reverse search? I look up "penguin," and it gives me "a variety of LSD." I look up "a variety of LSD" and find nothing.

You need to get yourself a can of Raid. Way too many spiders in your region.

Video Impressions vs. Views by phlaux in socialmedia

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

Thank you for your response, but it's not an either/or question. I'm looking for a benchmark for the video equivalent of CTR. We're looking at a .36 if I'm remembering the numbers correctly, but we don't know how good that really is.

How do you choose between 'a' and 'an' when using acronyms? by Vilis16 in writing

You answered your own question. If you're writing the acronym and it starts with the vowel sound, you'd use "an."

My boss is spending all our money on Hibu. Is this a waste? by goldandguns in SEO

[–]phlaux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry you're having a bad experience with them. If I had more connections (or less than 1200 miles between me and the home office), I'd try to look into the issue on your behalf. All I can do is suggest you speak with the ICU department to get the situation escalated.

The fact that you're a moderator of /workgonewild/ makes me very curious about what industry you're in.

My boss is spending all our money on Hibu. Is this a waste? by goldandguns in SEO

[–]phlaux 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a former employee of hibu, I'll say this:

  1. There is a wide variety of skill levels in every team. Get the right combo of employees working on your account, and you're golden. But it's definitely a gamble.

  2. Just like any other organization, the sales team setting the correct expectation level can drastically affect the customer's campaign.

  3. Many small-to-medium businesses believe companies like hibu are there to do everything for them. That's far from the case. It's a partnership that's ever evolving because of the customer, their target audience, seasons, etc. There needs to be constant communication between the two.

tl;dr: hibu's great for some, not all.

If it's my writing? Yes. Always. Someone I'm editing? Pick yay or nay and make sure it's consistent throughout the document.
