2024.05.21 19:02 Yulkfara Success sending cold messages via messenger & Instagram?

Hello,
Feeling frustrated - I must have sent out about 400 messages over the past week on messenger (my business page to their business page) and Instagram, offering a website redesign for free to people who have clearly got a dated website.
Not even a peep! I'm wondering if my messages are even being delivered? I looked on the meta business app at "messages" and each message just has a single "check" outline.
Anyone else had much success here?
Starting to think going back to LinkedIn is the best way.
Thanks.

2024.05.21 19:01 VariousOperations I (M25) have given up on trying to find someone.

Recently I realised that in my case there's no point of trying to find a girlfriend. I've never been in the relationship, and I will probably never be, because I'm too screwed up and too ugly. I have a lot of mental health conditions (Tourette's Syndrome, Asperger's Syndrome, deep depression), and on top of that I have type 1 diabetes. I also don't look attractive, my face is constantly red, due to some condition. I also have rather unusual hobbies (aviation, history, politics). I'm not even trying to find someone anymore, because I realised that probably no one will be interested in me in terms of relationship. Last situation when I was trying to get a girlfriend ended up in "friendzone" lasting about a year, until she found someone and broke any contact with me. I also tried online dating apps, but to no avail, only girls on those app which I really enjoyed talking with were girls which were already in the relationship. In the end I don't feel there's even point in trying anymore. Maybe I'm an some kind of "cel" (I don't like this word), according to strict definition but I don't feel like one, because I don't blame women for not having interest in me, I understand very well why they don't have interest in me. I also have a lot of female friends, and usually I don't have much problems with just casually talking with girls, at least with those I already know. Sorry for my english, I'm not a native speaker.

2024.05.21 19:01 Malfarro Looking for games with good character customization

I basically need the glorified character creation engines that may or may not have gameplay as a bonus.
What I REQUIRE:
A game has many clothing/armor options, preferably in different styles Many hair options and various accessories, hats, glasses, masks, etc It is possible to change body shape and height (medium priority) The clothing items (or at least most of them) are available at once (no paywalls or "kill this dude to get that armor") and I don't have to spend too much time to unlock them PC only, and preferably something that doesn't weigh 200 GB
Things I DON'T CARE FOR:
A hundred face sliders. Having a good face gen is a bonus, but my main aim is good item variety Stunning ultra graphics (I mean, the graphics should not be vanilla Minecraft, but if there are good old games with good variety...)
Games/tools I already know about and use:
Champions online (had to buy/grind a few costume parts packs though) - near total hit City of Heroes - total hit (so many of everything and last time I checked all was available from the start without paywalls because the game is legally dead) Saints Row series - partial hit (nice in-game shops one has to drive to, unfortunately not all items in one place) Hero Forge mini figures creator - partial hit (so much stuff deeply customizable and free, but I want normal characters and not minis) 2D stuff like Heromachine, Fabrica de Herois - partial hit (because 2D)
What WON'T DO AT ALL:
Skyrim, Oblivion, Fallout 3/New Vegas - no clothes customization during the character creation and I don't care for 50 facial sliders, better give me 50 kinds of eyes DC universe online (have to hunt for those costume pieces, the pieces available during character creation are few)
So, thank you for reading this long post, waiting eagerly for your suggestions. And before you redirect me to an old post Google shows when asked for games with good character creation, I've read it, but it's a bit vague and it's clear its author and I have different goals and therefore not all games from that post will suit me. Thanks in advance and how foolish would I feel if this thing gets deleted for missing some technicality...

2024.05.21 19:01 RealKumaGenki I had a vasectomy an hour ago. AMA

I'm a 44 yr old white male in California. I already have one child but I am a single parent and actively looking to date. I am an involved parent and very happy to have my daughter but couldn't support (or probably survive) a second child.
Given that I am 100% certain I didn't want further children, I went through the process of getting a vasectomy and literally just got home from the procedure. I know that this is a really intimidating thing for a lot of men to do - but it's also the responsible decision; particularly with abortion rights disappearing. So I figured I'd do an AMA in order to try and give answers about it while it's fresh in my mind. Plus, I'm taking the day off and don't plan to move much, so this felt like a good use of time.

2024.05.21 18:59 bullcitythrowaway0 Which brand of 70% chocolate is highest quality/most accessible? 1st time making a Marquise cake!

Hi! Im making a Marquise Cake for the 1st time, and it only has 5 ingredients. I know I need to use top quality ingredients so the flavors shine through, is there a brand of 70% chocolate you’d recommend?
From my research, it seems Valhrona or Guittard are highly rated on this sub. I’m in the USA and was hoping to find something high quality that would be available at Whole Foods, Costco, local grocery stores etc. I suppose I could order online if it was worth it, but that seems like overkill. I’m not a baker, so idk if the difference in taste is that noticeable to warrant custom ordering ingredients online.
For context, I’m trying to impress a date whose favorite dessert is chocolate cake. Thank you!

2024.05.21 18:58 GimmeSomeOfYerTots Free Better Help therapy sessions

I’ve been getting free Better Help sessions and I don’t know why?
I’ve been seeing my therapist maybe 2 times a month for about 8 months and I haven’t paid for a single thing. I don’t even have my card or form of payment set up in my account. I don’t have a single transaction on my bank statements and I have no idea why. My therapist hasn’t said anything and a I’ve even told her that I’m not paying for sessions. I don’t know if it’s a glitch or what?
I’ve been thinking about swapping therapists but I’m scared my “discount” will disappear if so.
Has this happened to anyone?

Looking for detailed 1/24 AN hose fittings
I am getting back into model cars after about a 15 year break and I am amazed at the amount of detailed parts on the market now. I need some AN style hose fittings, I know the easiest way would be 3D printing myself but I don't own one nor know how to use it, so buying a quality part is my best option. I have found some online such as the ones pictured, are there better ones out there?

2024.05.21 18:57 primarist Calculate filtered measure based on lookup value

Okay, here's one I've been banging my head on the wall about for a few hours. I have an order level drill though page where most of the charts show data for a single order placed by a customer. However, there are two charts that need to show that customer's full order history by date, regardless of the order number drill filter. The tricky thing is that the only context this page receives is the order number filter as I have the "Keep all filters" option turned off.
 
So in short, I need to get the customer ID based on the order number that is passed into the drill through, and then calculate some quantity that the level of that customer ID. Here is a mock example of the data and intended output:
ORDER_NUM CUSTOMER QUANTITY DATE
1 A 10 1/1/2020
2 A 15 1/2/2020
3 A 20 1/3/2020
4 B 3 1/1/2020
5 B 6 1/2/2020
6 B 9 1/3/2020
 
With a drill through filter of ORDER_NUM = 2, all other measures on this page will output the following data, as they are subject to the drill filter:
ORDER_NUM CUSTOMER QUANTITY DATE
2 A 15 1/2/2020
 
However, this measure would remove the filter on ORDER_NUM and add a filter on CUSTOMER A, outputting the following data, broken out by date (in this case in a line chart):
ORDER_NUM CUSTOMER QUANTITY DATE
1 A 10 1/1/2020
2 A 15 1/2/2020
3 A 20 1/3/2020
 
Here is some of the DAX I've tried that unfortunately doesn't work:
MEASURE = VAR lookup = LOOKUPVALUE(Transactions[CustomerID], Transactions[Order Number], SELECTEDVALUE(Transactions[Order Number],1)) VAR filtered_output = CALCULATE(SUM(Quantity), REMOVEFILTERS(Transactions[Order Number]), FILTER(Transactions, Transactions[CustomerID] = lookup)) RETURN filtered_output 
 
Any ideas here? I'm actually not certain why that DAX doesn't work because it seems to correctly select the lookup value, but there are issues with it.

Trump’s Unified Reich
Trump Posts, Then Takes Down, Video Online With Headlines About a ‘Unified Reich’ The 30-second video shared from Donald Trump’s Truth Social account includes World War I-era newspaper clippings alongside fictional headlines presuming a Trump victory in November. Share full article Donald Trump leaning on a lectern and smiling as he speaks into a microphone. He is wearing a blue suit, white shirt and a red tie. The Trump campaign said in a statement that the video had been posted by a staff member.Credit...Doug Mills/The New York Times Chris Cameron By Chris Cameron Published May 20, 2024 Updated May 21, 2024, 9:55 a.m. ET Leer en español Former President Donald J. Trump posted a video on Monday afternoon that features images of hypothetical newspaper articles celebrating a 2024 victory for him and referring to “the creation of a unified Reich” under the headline “What’s next for America?”
The 30-second video, which Mr. Trump posted on his social media site, Truth Social, features several articles styled like newspapers from the early 1900s — and apparently recycling text from reports on World War I, including references to “German industrial strength” and “peace through strength.” One article in the video asserts that Mr. Trump would deport 15 million migrants in a second term, while text onscreen lists the start and end days of World War I.
Another headline in the video suggests that Mr. Trump in a second term would reject “globalists,” using a term that has been widely adopted on the far right and that scholars say can be used as a signal of antisemitism.
The Trump campaign said in a statement that the video had been posted by a staff member while Mr. Trump was in his criminal trial in Manhattan. The video was still up on his account early Tuesday, and his campaign did not respond to a question late Monday about why it had not been taken down. It was then deleted sometime Tuesday morning. ADVERTISEMENT SKIP ADVERTISEMENT
“This was not a campaign video, it was created by a random account online and reposted by a staffer who clearly did not see the word, while the President was in court,” Karoline Leavitt, a campaign spokeswoman, said in a statement. “The real extremist is Joe Biden.”
Mr. Trump has repeatedly denounced Jews who vote for Democrats, accusing them of hating their religion and Israel. In one video this month, he said that “if Jewish people are going to vote for Joe Biden, they have to have their head examined.”
Mr. Trump, whose advisers have been crafting plans for a second term that would be more radical than his first, has also drawn criticism during this campaign for echoing the language of past authoritarian leaders, dehumanizing his political opponents as “vermin” and promising that he would not be a dictator “except for Day 1.”
In November 2022, Mr. Trump had dinner with Nick Fuentes, an outspoken antisemite who is one of the country’s most prominent white supremacists. He has also tried to downplay the violent white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Va., in 2017, describing the episode as “a big hoax.” One woman was killed and nearly 40 people were injured when an avowed neo-Nazi plowed his car into a crowd.
ADVERTISEMENT SKIP ADVERTISEMENT
The term “Reich” is often associated with Germany’s Nazi government under Adolf Hitler, who established a “Third Reich” that succeeded its first two counterparts, the medieval Holy Roman Empire and the German Empire of 1871-1918, which lost World War I to the Allied powers. The sentence referring to “the creation of a unified Reich” is used three times in the video. It reads, in full, “German industrial strength significantly increased after 1871, driven by the creation of a unified Reich.” In the beginning of the video, as an announcer asks, “What’s next for America,” the text is partly visible, including the words “the creation of a unified Reich.”
The German Empire that fought in World War I was founded when many different German-speaking states and regions were unified — some by force — into a single, powerful nation in 1871. That empire was dismantled at the end of World War I, and Hitler stoked resentment against the loss of former German territories, and against the Jewish people, as he rose to power in the lead-up to World War II.
President Biden’s campaign accused Mr. Trump of echoing Nazi Germany by posting the ad, saying in a statement on social media that the video was “foreshadowing a second Trump term.”

2024.05.21 18:57 CholaPeroBonita Seeking Career Guidance and Support: 3+ Years on This SWE Journey

Hi, all! 👋

Intro/Question:

Let me just start out by saying that I’ve been on here for a little while and have admired not only the persistence, dedication, and grit of the women on here, but also the kindness and support in comparison to other groups. I wish I could give/get hugs from you all because a lot of you seem like such wonderful people, and I could really use some of that kindness in my life at the moment.
Now, I guess I’ll get right into my reason for posting this: I’d love some advice/insight/thoughts from y’all on recommendations for my next steps in this career transition towards software development because I’ve been struggling for awhile with finding a FT or even PT role.
Throughout this time, my mental health has also declined greatly (while on this journey, I’ve actually started antidepressant medication for the first time ever because my mental health has exponentially decreased, and have also seen a few different therapists in the same span of time).

VERY brief overview of my journey thus far:

Early Education: Growing up in a predominantly white community outside the main city, I was put into ESL classes despite being born in the U.S. I'm Latina, and my parents--who knew little English at the time--agreed with everything the educators suggested. This meant I was often taken out of critical science and math classes to make time for ESL work. Despite being a straight-A student, I had to work harder than others, and I believe this was one reason why.About a year and a half ago, I was diagnosed with combined ADD/ADHD. As a kid, it often took me longer to complete my work. My parents noticed but assumed it was just the way I functioned. My mom often recounted how I needed a "million" breaks while doing homework, which often led to late nights. Despite these struggles, I managed to stay on top of my studies.
Undergrad Education (2015 - 2019): I am a first-gen college grad and earned a bachelors in biochem & environmental science summer 2019. I discovered computer science during my junior year of college (by then, it was too late to take more courses in CS let alone attempt to make a switch without staying an extra year, which my scholarships would not cover). After graduating college, I was still interested in learning more about CS, so I took an Introduction to Programming in C course at my local community college, and not only earned an A, but also thoroughly enjoyed the content.
Grad School (Spring 2022): Enrolled in an online Masters in CS at Case Western Reserve University for those without CS degrees with a $30,000 grant from the dept. Took Discrete Mathematics and Algorithms & Data Structures in Java (those of us w/o a CS degree had to pass these before being able to move into the rest of the program where we’d be merged with those who DID have CS degrees), but paused due to my younger brother's unexpected passing.
Bootcamp (Fall 2022): Received a full-ride scholarship to a bootcamp (1/15 out of 1200 applicants accepted) where I learned full-stack development with Python, JavaScript, SQL, Flask, AJAX, and React, among other technologies. Graduated December 2022.
Further Learning (Spring/Summer 2023): Accepted into Code the Dream’s React course, dedicating over 20 hours per week to mastering React all while volunteering to work on open-source projects.
Internship (Fall 2023 - Present): I was interning at an early-stage Ed Tech startup up until the end of April, contributing to building an app from the ground up. I Gained experience in code writing/reviewing, CI/CD methodology, technical communication, and working on a software development team along with other teams like the content team and design team.

Struggles/Thoughts:

I have been consistently applying for FT/PT roles, internships, etc. with nothing but maybe 4 interviews since graduating from my bootcamp. In addition, I’ve been tweaking my resume for jobs that I feel I could be a particularly good candidate for using Jobscan with no luck.
With regards to the startup, they’ve informed me that they do not have sufficient funding to bring me on. Furthermore, about a month after the internship contract officially ended, the other female intern (graduated from the same bootcamp, although different cohorts) at the startup also let me know that she was being brought on again for an extended contract, and asked if I was offered the same—to which I replied that no, I wasn’t. I guess she also has an associates in CS, which also helps and I am not mad at her for anything and support her and uplift her, but as you can imagine, I am a little disappointed (more in myself than anything, I guess). It just makes me feel a bit crushed. I made myself always available (even after hours), replied quickly, got along super well with everyone, got my tasks all done for the most part. ==> Towards the end, I was tasked with a particularly difficult task, and was able to get through a good chunk of a new game, but was not able to fully finish. During this period, I was also struggling to get ahold of my ADHD meds, but they seemed to be out of stock everywhere, so that also didn't help.

Next steps:

I’m debating whether I should just keep applying, find some other program (AS/BS/MS), or just stop this trajectory altogether (although, I REALLY hope that I won’t have to because it would probably break me 😔).
I know that my math skills probably aren’t on par with those of others in the field, and I know that I need to work on those as well, so if you have any suggestions for free resources for that/what I should focus on with regards to teaching myself these concepts I’d also really appreciate it. I'm currently taking the Harvard CS50 course for credit as well as a Mathematics for Machine Learning course on Coursera (they state that this is for people of all math levels).
I’ve learned a lot and am passionate about continuing to grow as a software engineedeveloper. Any advice on next steps, opportunities, etc. that you feel may be relevant would be greatly appreciated. Thank you SO much if you read this far! 🫶
