Ask HN: What is your “sales stack”?
As a technical founder going into a more sales-oriented role, I would like advice on the tools other founders / sales teams use in their day-to-day to give them an advantage in lead-generation and sales automation.

Although CRM suggestions would be OK, I am more interested in tools that help you do things such as:

- Create easily customizable email templates and their follow-up sequence.

- Automation software for LinkedIn outreach / email sending.

- Automation software for generating leads. For example: easily identifying companies' email formats, easily gathering companies' and their competitors' information, landing page generation automation, gathering lists of companies based on size, industry, needs, etc.

Essentially, if someone asks you what your day-to-day sales operations look like for a B2B SaaS product, how would you respond with hands-on suggestions? Assume that such person has no idea of the current trends of sales software.

If someone asked me the same question for a software tech stack, I would answer for example:

- Bitbucket / Github for version control

- Travis CI for continuous integration deployment

- React JS for front-end, combined with parcel as a bundler, Mobx State Tree for state management, etc.

- Ruby on Rails for back-end, combined with PostgreSQL.

Ideally, if you have information on how that product / strategy gives you some advantage it would be really hepful. If you have any resources that could also help a technical founder get into sales, with a step-by-step process, that would also be great!

Has anyone noticed 2-3 ads per YouTube video (especially midstream)? It’s getting ridiculous.

An historic problem with logging is that if you wanted to create a logging library, every time you logged you would lose the line number of the log statement as it would just show that of the library rather than the call point.

This is solved by separating out your log library into a separate file, and then blackboxing it. Voila, original call points are preserved making debugging easier and your logs more useful.
Yes. The answer is to use Patreon and sponsorships for the most part to guarantee an income as opposed to the fidgety monetisation on YT, and to use an adblocker like uBlock Origin to get rid of the YT ads.

I'm actually not sure it would have.

If there's one thing that's clear from visiting any news publisher's website, it's that news publishers are unable to build sites that are fast and mobile-friendly. But one things news publishers do know how to do is rig up their CMS to also publish to proprietary systems like Facebook Instant Articles.

The magic of AMP was that it tricked publishers into thinking they were publishing to one of those proprietary systems, when in reality they were building a fast mobile website! Because it imposed strict rules rather than just "faster is better", publishers could throw out all of the stupid, awful practices they'd built up around making websites. Can't use that bloated framework of the week, AMP doesn't support it. Can't give the ads department free reign to ship whatever third-party scripts they please, AMP doesn't support it. Don't worry, website team, we're not threatening your jobs -- AMP is just another proprietary reading system, just like Facebook's.
> Translating requirements into code is the hard part

I so agree. However, I don’t think that a majority of the new generation of developers would.

Technologies, platforms, frameworks, user and system interfaces, and how to best modify persistent data is what many would say is the hard part. With this viewpoint, the pursuit of automation into no-code tools is much more understandable in my opinion.
I propose another dictum. Call it Delta's dictum.

Only a doctor has the intelligence and super human ability to claim that a man has a disease. The man himself is too ignorant and stupid to know anything about his own disease.
They are kind of doing it already e.g. I hate when ads exploit classical music for trivial purposes. Whenever I hear Libiamo ne' lieti calici now my mind instantly fills with pizza ads. And once an association is made, it doesn't go away. Ads attach themselves to positive memories like parasites. Whenever you think back to your first kiss, a nice family moment, a cherished memory of going out with friends – here they are.
Leela : Didn't you have ads in the 21st century?

Fry : Well sure, but not in our dreams. Only on TV and radio, and in magazines, and movies, and at ball games... and on buses and milk cartons and t-shirts, and bananas and written on the sky. But not in dreams, no siree.

What they do in IBM zSeries is they compare the instruction executions on two cores, if they agree. If they disagree, they will retry the operation. If they disagree again, they will take the CPU (both cores) offline (and probably call home to IBM to bring a replacement).

That will work, because console.log() returns undefined.

It is a bit subtle for my taste, though. My suggestion for clarity is to go ahead and make the function have a body with {}:

const upperCase = (message) => {
console.log(message);
return message.upperCase();
};

Of course you may disagree, but no argument there, as I said it's a matter of taste.

(BTW backticks, either triple or single, do not work on HN. Indent by two spaces if you want code formatting.)
I played with it recently. The interactive part is limited at the moment, but I really like the idea of having operations like sorting and filtering separate from the tools which produce the data. Having these things consistent and available everywhere is a huge cognitive win. I can finally sort and filter `ls` output without having to read the man page. :) "Querying" data feels a lot like SQL in that respect.
Also works as opposed to donating to individual Patreons and such. I still don't like a cut being taken by YT because I disagree with their business practices though. Sponsorships are the future of online media creation, I guess.

The YT ads are obviously dealt with through an adblocker.

I'm sorry, but I'm not actually sure what you're trying to express here.

My initial interpretation is that this is a level beyond typical nitpicking, but I'm not sure how that follows?
It wouldn't help you at all if you are already in a good place. Whether you are might depend on what "a lingering family issue" is.
The offerings that use SGX or SEV also guarantee correct execution as long as you perform remote attestation of the code before execution and as long as you trust the CPU manufacturer.

There is no need to trust either side (and indeed we should not trust either side, everything should be backed with evidence and verifiable facts [though note that one cannot prove a negative]). You can just notice that no evidence have been provided at this stage so while the lab leak is within the range of possibility there is nothing to discuss further unless and until facts surface. There is little doubt that the lab leak theory is pushed by a narrative more than anything else at the moment.
I agree with you and I'd even go as far as to say the same applies to novel vaccines or mRNA gene therapies: Yes, those may be effective for most people, but for others with certain preconditions, these may prove to be detrimental. In fact, we have seen this happen, such as increasing numbers of myocarditis in young males after getting their biontech shot. Point being, a little scepticism and reluctance in taking new stuff like that is always warranted and noone should be ostracised for that.

Yes, I haven't used PowerShell. And I agree that my comment is uninformed.

It's just that I feel uncomfortable even looking at the PS syntax. Maybe it's idiosyncratic. Maybe I've spent too many years in Unix shell.

Per usual, clickbait polemics that propose absolutes cause controversy.

I realize that the comments here will largely be filled with people variously proposing that one do EVERYTHING with the iPad, and folks opposed to that. As this article is from 2007 and desktops are not extinct may I humbly suggest that a tablet device SUPPLEMENTS and COMPLEMENTS desktop and laptop computers running “full featured” operating systems (ones that allow you to manage files conveniently, for example, or configure the system as you wish it to be).

The question is not so much about processing power, but of form factors. A PCI(e) based audio interface is still superior to a USB one in latency and jitter, commodity RAM in standardized slots as an easy consumer upgrade, one can speak of the physical space required for proper USB ports if OTG and a zillion fragile dongles aren’t going to work for you.

The vast majority of content creators that I know, (including myself) use a tablet in conjunction with a traditional computer form factor. They use the tablet variously as a remote control, as an input device, and as a portable idea capturing device. It doesn’t replace a sound or video studio, it’s a welcome addition to one.

I've been wondering the same. Spent the past eight months on a mental health break from employment after being thoroughly burnt out at my last job. The combination of remote working, pandemic isolation, bad management and increasingly heavy workload really fucked me up. Been doing some simple side projects recently to try to get back into the swing of things, but no idea how I'm going to explain it when I start job hunting again. Reading the comments here with interest.

Anyway, best of luck to you in yours. Hope you find something fulfilling.

See that is an interesting point I've discovered while learning about stocism, and I find the same line of thought from what I understand of Buddhism.

It seems that they are focused on taking away desires, just stop wanting things so much, stop trying to avoid pain and seek after pleasure. Which I agree in large part much of the misery we encounter in our daily life seems to stem from failure to adequately control our more reptilian impulses, but it also seems like the whole philosophy is about completely detaching from things, and as a wise man recently said "The only way to take the grief out of death is to take the love out of life."

I get that it can be less painful, but why optimize for avoiding pain instead of maximizing joy?
Wow, you learn something new every day!

Yes, it's a job. Very few actually care about their field. And if they started accepting their patients' research (most of which will be riddled with errors, sadly), they wouldn't get anything done.

It sucks, but as with any human system, the majority has priority, minorities have to wait for their turn (and/or actively fight for it).

That was absolutely predictable. Just my own anectodal evidence: through my life, ads always became more present, never less. No matter if i.e. ad-financed TV (they started with a single block of 4-5 ads in the late 80s in a standard 90 minute film) to sports (just check a video of a soccer game of the 80s to the how much white space was left on their shirts) the internet etc.
This is so cool. I built something similar for my startup https://panakit.com. It’s a tool de create blogs and I have a UI builder where users can customise the blog. The code is hidden away since it is aimed at non-tech people. My UI builder is way limited in functionality and only works for blogs and it was still quite a bit of work to build, I can’t even imagine the amount of work your tool required. How do you plan to make money out of it?

I'm not a lawyer, but _usually_ small participations or something that blocks signing a deal suddenly might become more valuable.

Just an email from your lawyer to the buyer telling about your case might stop the process and will make the founders do a lot of (unwanted) work.

This is insanity and hubris.

"It's so easy!" yes if you have the language and tools de jour installed and up to date. I want none of that.

It was node and npm.

Then go.

Now Rust and cargo.

Oh, I forgot ruby.

And all this needs to be up to date or things break. (And if you do update them then things you are actively using will break.)

I don't need more tamagochis, in fact the less I have, the better.

What happened to .deb and .rpm files? Especially since these days you can have github actions or a gitlab pipeline packaging for you. I can't care less what language you are using, don't try to force it down my throat.

> I think it's in France where names are not published until after the person has been found guilty.

Yes, and it just led to french people assuming all petty crimes were committed by people from african/arabic descent. It didn't make French society less racist. And the media almost never follow up on crime anyway, they never publish judgements. It perpetuated stereotypes even more

. And the gag order on the press has been mainly to used to cover up corruption cases related to elected officials, nothing more.

Also it's not uncommon the press publishes the legal immigration status of a suspect or even their country of origin alongside whether the suspect already has a record or not.

Rust isn't the only language that offers that. In fact most languages offer that. Even Pascal is safer than C. Or if we're really concerned about security then we should be advocating that out shells are written in Ada. But clearly there's more to it than that....

It's also worth remembering that the biggest causes of RCE in shells haven't been buffer overflows. It's been fundamental design problems from the outset (eg Bash executing functions in environmental variables (Shellshock) and CI/CD pipelines or other programs forking out to the shell without sanitising user input nor having sufficient RBAC in place).

Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against Rust. I think its fantastic that we're seeing diversity in the ecosystem. But we need to be careful not to judge a project simply because of its use of Rust (or choice of other language). The reality is soooo much more complicated and nuanced than is often made out in HN.

ORAM provides the purely cryptographic solution, but you have to pick your scheme based on the amount of leakage you are willing to have. In the worst case accessing one row in a database would require reading the whole database.

There’s also a complementary strategy followed by many larger luxury brands, where the clothes are the halo product, but they make most of their profit selling accessories (sunglasses, perfume, etc.) that are affordable to many more customers (including those outside of LA!). The latter are often produced by other companies under a license.
I suspect they are demanding more physical stamina out of workers than they can safely sustain.
> There are some who need this medication to function, but there are many who weren't sure if they needed meds, got prescribed anyway

ADHD medication is heavily controlled. As an adult, it is very hard to get but yes, there are likely people who got it without really needing it.

The wording of this comment ("some" vs "many") makes it seem like the majority of people got it without needing it. This is almost certainly not true due to how strictly it is controlled.

This comment is extremely diminutive and places a lot of assumption in the prescription process of medication.
> That's not to say it doesn't have a place in treatment of life-impacting ADHD disorders, but it should be noted that it's not a miracle drug that automatically turns you into a motivated, organized person.

For one person I know that is actually how it was. From unemployed and living at home to phd studies in mathematics and publishing in prestigious journals.

Reducing Product Risk and Removing the MVP Mindset
It's just functions f: N -> N

For example you can assign an integer to each guest, and an integer to each room, and the "move" is just the function: guests --> rooms.

As long as this function is injective, then you do not put more than 1 guest in each room.

Then this is just the observation that you can put every guest in a room and still have some empty rooms (rooms not in the range of the function). For example, the deep and paradoxical function f(n) = n+1 corresponds to an assignment of every guest that used to be in room n to room n+1.

I guess if you want, you can think of a description of the function as a sequence of "moves" with people in an actual hotel, but then since the domain of the function is infinite you have to think of an infinite
"number" of moves. Then you add time to the mix and carpet hallways or whatever, you start getting lost and saying the whole thing doesn't make sense, but that's only because you are stretching these metaphors beyond the breaking point when what is really being described by the "paradox" is that you can have an injective function from an infinite set to itself that is not surjective.

By the way, once you realize that, for example, when dealing with positive real numbers there exists functions of the form: f(x) = x + 1, then you see that this "hotel" doesn't even need countably infinite moves, it can have uncountably infinite moves. Just please stop trying to worry about the weight of the hotel or how the HVAC works and getting all tangled up in stretching metaphors past their breaking point.
