this is rly awful "research". ederer prob got bullied on there and got mad, cause he has a reputation as a bitch.

more importantly, ejmr has been important in uncovering multiple cases of research fraud (including one of the literal damn authors, this is some vindictive ass bs) and is the best source for actual unfiltered info on opinions of econ departments. includes important info like info abt people's political biases, potential toxic departmental cultures (or rather, which are more or less toxic, this being econ), and even info on sexual harassment allegations that depts would rather cover up. chilling effect of stripping anonymity is awful.

Similar experience in PE a while back, know a lot of people who still do it, and yeah a lot of small business owners are cashing out right now as boomers retire. Between that and all the dry powder PE has on hand after recent massive raises there will be a lot of buying businesses going on, lots more than even a decade back. Especially now that inflation is stressing retirement savings and costs of everything are rising so fast while people will be looking more to private markets to up returns in bad economic conditions.

I am American and commonly see mm to mean million.

This. Bad for newer companies since big guys already have it and everybody still needs v4.

No offense but why would I care at all what a non-American thinks? They are not governed by this law and so have 0 say in what it should be since it is not a rights violation. I am only sorry you all live with such a lack of a basic right and find it normal.

From the other perspective: gun rights are under constant attack from fearmongering media and I find that bonkers. All it takes is one (1) psycho POS shooting up a school for the media to run a month of coverage claiming that everybody should now lose a fundamental right. Ffs most people agree that criminal activity doesn't justify violating everybodys rights (like police state measures), why is this specifically different? Because the media machine works for a political class that wants a disarmed and castrated electorate.

Theres been a creeping advance against these rights since the 1930s with the NFA passing and gun grabbers have been constantly demanding more for these 100 years with small concessions then larger infringements, racheting toward less gun rights, slowly but surely hellbent on taking away our weapons. Most of this is enabled by bullshit judicial activism that twists 2a for matters of convenience and political ends.

That definitely looks like a good idea, that saves at least some on cost. Largest SMS cost is still sending notification messages though, so bringing that down is the hope.

Done, thanks!

Yeah same type problem here, notification is time sensitive and I haven't figured out how to make sure delivery is fast.

Thanks, I will reach out about Sinch. I looked at them but didn't see pricing and wanted to avoid sales run-around, but it's probably worth while.

Update: I created an account and managed to find pricing, it's almost 2x what I pay other providers.

Yes I am generating enough revenue but I prefer to increase margins with some cheaper provider if I can. Long term you are probably right, a mobile app is much cheaper, just takes time.

Thanks. I understand limits these days are based on 10DLC trust? Do those throttling still apply even with staying under those limits?

I think the floor is 0.0025 to 0.003 based on network access fees and depending on carrier. With margin I suppose yes I won't get much cheaper.

If I scale to that level I will look at direct integration, thanks. Do I still need blacklist if I have double opt in and users can opt out? Requiring confirmation would remove the need for that?

Customers want SMS notifications or similar, I have email also. Long term maybe i switch to a mobile app.

Carriers are now actively penalizing toll free A2P with higher fees and some are straight up filtering them. They all want 10DLC where volume is dependent on trust score.

That will get blocked past a few 100s messages each day.

I have tried email to sms, it doesn't work at my scale.

Revenue can cover it but I prefer to increase margin with some cheaper solution if possible.

I will give it a try, hopefully there is something there.

Thanks, I did.

No carriers all want 10DLC now not toll-free.

Looks like more $ than the others I put above, unfortunately.

Yes, I have added.

"Sorry, you're shadowbanned, guess you'll die alone. The Algorithm has spoken." Its damn kafkaesque.

Because string processing is not slow enough? Making string operations eat the performance impact of that context switch in and out of kernel is not a good idea. Library is better. This is not string but I'm thinking to some language like Rust where the "time" crate is not language feature but just about standard and all the other library use it. This is possible if a library like it is good quality and exist early in the language.

Maybe for ECS newbie, please say more on how you would approach this problem?

Also is the svg itself optimized? Usually possible to take a lot off them with tool like svgomg: https://jakearchibald.github.io/svgomg/

Feels like nobody considers that these could make plastic much less durable. If we create them they should be unable to survive at all outside extremely specific conditions so they can't spread.

Meritocracy makes it harder to select to meet political/social justice goals.

This would be more like GPT-3 completing a specific novel.

Chinas whole economy is built on illegal copying amd stealing ideas, who is surprised? Not me.

Well your link discusses kids raised on it. Endocrine system is very different before and after puberty. I'm also talking about higher amounts then studies I've seen covered, as I said the guys I talked to were eating a lot, enough for 120+ grams protein every day. They may have been running close to the guy mentioned who was drinking .75 gallons soymilk every day since they were replacing that much protein. I'd probably have to consume that much to replace my protein intake from chicken, eggs, fish, beef, pork.

If you've got something on replacing that kind of animal protein intake with soy or something else I'd be interested in seeing but last time I looked studies on that much soy didn't exist. About all I know that is vegan and has comparable protein per calories to chicken breast is spirulina which tastes like absolute dogshit even in a shake. It is notoriously one of the worst tasting things many people have tried and I agree.

Fwiw I put gyno in parentheses in the first comment I just figured most people would know it as bitch tits because that's how its commonly referred to.

I'd also point out that my biggest opposition is still laws about what I can eat and how much. Agenda 2030, UN, WEF, and everybody else can fuck right off of my kitchen.
