The Remote Sales Assistant or the Virtual Assistant you need!

I have been helping real estate firms all over the United States with their virtual assistance needs, now I want to move into SAAS or Proptech sales.

I have been assisting realtors generate sales leads from social media platforms, helping them execute deals and managing their social media and communication platform for the last 2 years now.

I am hoping to shift towards more to sales preferably entry level remote SDR, BDR or Sales Assistant roles.
I'm of the belief that it should be called a dose. There are many therapeutics that will make you hallucinate if you ingest too much. We call that an overdose.
It doesn't improve the power of SQL, it's just syntactic sugar. Because of how the SQL syntax works, you'd have to do something like:

WITH A AS (
SELECT x, sum(y) AS z
FROM SomeTable
GROUP BY x
)

SELECT * FROM A WHERE z > 10

With an HAVING clause you can instead just tuck it after the GROUP BY clause.

Also, although it's not an issue these days given how good query planners are (any decent engine will produce exactly the same query plan with a subquery or an having clause, it's indexes that fuck up stuff), but you're signaling that the filter happens "at the end".

It's like having both "while" and "for" in a programming language. Technically you don't need it, but it's for humans and not for compilers.
> Are meats unhealthy, or, is it the food fed (grains on a foodlot) to the animal that negatively influences the health profile?

I think there's a difference between healthy food, okay food, and unhealthy food.

Something ultra processed, high in sugar, and low in other macro and micro nutrients is probably unhealthy.

I think "red meat" is unlikely to be very unhealthy - in the same way a Twinky is. But maybe pepperoni sticks aren't too far behind...

I'm not sure why so many people are convinced that red meat - in most of its forms - is one of the best foods you can possibly eat.

There's a mountain of evidence that a lot of vegetables are really good for you. There's not much counter evidence that they're really bad for you. On the flip side, there's not a lot of evidence that red meat is super healthy. And there is a decent amount of evidence that it isn't.
It's a False Dichotomy:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_dilemma

If you can't argue well for your point, you talk about how bad something else is, with the implication that those are the only two options.

Coal is bad, worse than nuclear. But those are not the only two options.

And when comparing something that uses energy, like recycling, it's not a fair assumption for electric powered things to assume they are using the least efficient method possible, it's just deceptive. Like judging EVs as if the grid was 100% coal. Because even if it was, which it isn't, it won't be for long.

Similarly, added sugar is worse than meat in pretty much every way. Doesn't logically follow that people should eat more meat. It's a type of pass-the-buck whatabout-ism.

I think that statement should only come after something that justifies it.

The statement implies that the requester is acting in bad faith. If they are, fine, but if they aren't it's somewhat bad faith to treat them as if they are, and in my experience it can really change the tone of a community when all initial interactions start out assuming bad faith.
My father worked at Bell Labs, with Thompson, Ritchie, Aho, etc.. My dad says Bell Labs was the result of the monopoly laws restricting AT&T. The government forced AT&T's prices to be based on its costs from 2 years previously with a fixed rate of profit. So, prices were something like 104% of its costs from 2 years earlier (or something like that). That meant that the only way that AT&T could increase its profits was by innovating to lower its costs. For example, if research lowered its costs by 2% per year, the company's profits would double! Thus, research was a top priority for AT&T and Bell Labs was well-funded and well-managed.

(BTW, I loved "take your kid to work day" at Bell Labs --- I got to use computers with 5-button mice and play hilarious computer games. I was also given a copy of "the old testament" (pre-ANSI "The C Programming Langauge" book) in high school. My dad worked in hardware and really enjoyed his time there helping to design the CRISP and Hobbit processors.)

Thank you for replying, but I would like to understand what "mental baggage" is and why it makes a difference. Why doesn't "mental baggage" affect aspirin?

Also, just to be clear, I don't think you're saying that you have to be in a special frame of mind for psychoactive drugs to make a difference. For example, I've been told that homeopathy doesn't work for me because I "don't believe in it", but I'm pretty sure that a sufficient dose of psilocybin would get me just as high as anyone else (modulo tolerance), belief or no belief.
I'm unfamiliar with the mathematics involved, but this is what Wikipedia says the theorem states:

> If a function x(t) contains no frequencies higher than B hertz, it is completely determined by giving its ordinates at a series of points spaced 1/(2B) seconds apart

I took this to mean that it's any continuous function x(t), including amplitude information. I took a quick read through the proof and that's correct as far as I can tell.

Does that not mean that "noise, distortion, and dynamic range", as they are all encoded in the continuous function that is air pressure over time, can be perfectly captured and reproduced? All you need to do is throw out all information outside of human hearing range to have no frequencies higher than B hertz, and that's all you need for perfect reproduction.

If there exists a transformation f(x(t)), then said transformation can also be captured by the same sample, can it not?

There is the Exploding Nash Equilibrium [1]. Some related research is also linked from there. If you are fine with trusting a third party then you don't need the blockchain, and you can use an escrow service who mediates disputes. But my understanding from the article and the comments here is that credit card companies effectively fill this role, but they aren't neutral mediators.

I'm sort of surprised they didn't extract/synthesize psilocybin directly and administer that. Decades ago, I grew a few batches of P. Cubensis. Even amongst mushrooms from the same rice cake, the dosage wildly varies. You could have a "trip" from a tiny mushroom or eat a handful of duds.
For a certain crowd, I agree. The Saturday Evening Post covers spawned a homage set of covers with DC superheroes and villains that is very true to the original's spirit. I will say that in my youth the Byte covers were "better" because I didn't grow in a place that the SEP covers would invoke feelings of nostalgia or familiarity.
We can also find the f minimizing the integral of f^2 by considering the Lagrangian: integral f(x)^2 - lambda f(x) + lambda - mu x f(x) + mu dx, then solving pointwise for f(x) to get f(x) = (lambda + mu x) / 2, then using the constraints to get lambda and mu.

If the natural variability is high enough, then any effect will be hidden by it. Sure, we can say with some certainty that the effect of microdosing on most scales are not that huge. But we wouldn't have expected very large effect sizes anyway, because they are almost unheard off. (Unless the subjects become really severely impaired)

And there may still be meaningful treatment effects, at least judging by current standard of care for many psychiatric ailments and how those have performed in studies.

Again, I'm quite confident that the effect of many current psychiatric standard of care treatments would never have been picked up by this study. Not because they don't work (at least somewhat), but simply because there is too much noise and natural variability.
Ignore all the noise and just use an RPC model between your backend and frontend. All these stupid trends and overengineered abstractions will come and go, but people will still be using plain RPC in 5, 10, 100, and 1000 years.
I'm neither a physics nor sound processing expert, but it seems like the microphone creates the signal to invert, and the speakers emit the inverted signal before the initial sound hits your ear. So I reckon the sound must first hit the microphone, then the speakers, then your ear. With headphones, the speakers cover your ears and the microphone is outside the enclosure, so that's easy. In a larger controlled environment with reliable sound dampening on 3 sides, maybe? My inexpert intuition says that doesn't stand a chance of working in an open environment with one microphone and two speakers usually closer to each other than the user's ears. It seems like having a door on a building with no walls.

Work from home / hybrid shift may help? Anecdotally, folks seem to seek more in-person or in-community experiences when they lose some of what they used to get from the in-office experience.

For some folks, there also seems to be a slight shift from prioritizing destination to prioritizing journey, and from efficiency to experience.

These shifts may not be enough to make the business models work for most, but bookstores with good locations and experiences can sell plenty of high-margin food and beverages, and can possibly find new business model edges (subscription?, joint subscriptions w/ other businesses?, event hosting?, classes?).
If you happen to be in a city where an embassy or consulate of your country actually exists, typically embassies are in the capital city of a country, and if you come from some countries there may be consulates in some other "main" city, but that's it.

>This, to me. means that a microdose is a gamble not worth taking.

This has always been the problem with psychedelics as a therapeutic approach. It's hard to reconcile being a responsible clinician and recommending a therapy with such mixed and often-negative results. They are in charge of a person's mental well-being in a way that people evangelizing psychedelic therapy don't seem to properly appreciate. If a patient is interested in that therapy, they might be a better candidate, but even then... if the results aren't great it's hard to justify.

Don't get me wrong, I have no problem with psychedelics for personal use, and I've seen them do wonderful things for people. But I've also seen them do horrific things to people and I feel like a lot of young people have a great trip and then immediately conclude that literally every human being NEEDS to go out and trip without any more consideration. That same sort of evangelism carries over to the microdosing realm. It may have a place! But personally, I've tried it with psiolocybin, and I found that typical microdoses have a very detrimental effect on my ability to focus.

This is so disingenuous. Psilocybin directly affects levels of different neurotransmitters in the brain. Aspirin is an anti inflammatory.
Likewise comparing ourselves to obligate carnivores, or obligate herbivores is also less useful. Ideally you'd want omnivores that for one reason or another excluded meat from the diet, or did not. Right?
I tried graphql in a microservices environment and had huge headaches over schema stitching.

Turns out, if you have lots of objects from disparate sources, graphql don’t like that. Now you must stitch these schemas together into an über schema roll query and use with graphql. Maybe we missed a step. Maybe we misunderstood. Maybe it was a bad decision.
I have come to value 2nd hand bookstores so much in day to day life that I maintain it as an almost 'must have' when assessing living locations. Great coffee shops are a dime a dozen in reasonably affluent areas, but a good 2nd hand bookshop adds so much warmth and charm to an area.

I don't have any in walking distance from where I live right now, but I'm moving to NYC soon and will aim to correct that. (Shouldn't be too hard, right?)

Same. Most psilocybin research I am familiar with synthesizes psilocybin, in part to be able to exactly control dosage, indeed. But it may also be to avoid dealing with illegal market?

It's not, though you need to be careful if you want to exit cleanly -- you can't just exit() or _exit(). You have to get all the threads to exit, and that requires a global volatile sig_atomic_t flag and some way to signal all threads that might be sleeping in event loops or what have you.
How fast can it need to be? The output frequency would be below 20kHz so latency of 50us or so, probably too fast for a userland app but I'd expect it to be doable in a driver or in the OS?
Nation states, sure, they've probably bought a few, but I think the evidence points to no terrorists.

If a nation state has a nuke, it's in their interest to hold it as deterrent. As soon as it's used, anyone seeking accountability knows whom to visit. Eg Pakistan, Israel, NK have all been holding for years with motive to use them, but haven't.

If a terrorist group has a nuke, it's in their interest to use it asap. If they delay, it might be taken away from them. If they use it, they achieve the attention and blood they seek, while the world doesn't know where they all live (assuming good opsec) and where they might have more. This might indicate they don't have any.

Not really tax incentives but not having to pay some security company to come pick your cash every evening to store it securely in the bank and exchange the bigger notes for smaller ones so you can give change back turns out to be more expensive for smaller shops/cafes then paying whatever card transaction processor you use their ~1% fees.

So at the end of the day accepting cash is more expensive for small shops. (not 100% sure about Sweden but that is the case here in Finland).
