As with almost everything in life, there are multiple factors to take into account. We recently ran several drip campaigns, as well as a few fire-and-forget campaigns, together with corresponding ads through Google. There was a marked diffe

Could you elaborate what you mean by "one scale, in particular, the minor scale"? What you see as a very long solo overtop in one key - in the raga system - has some characteristic phrases or patterns, which are interpretatively e

I have been using Mac for 14 years. There was exactly one HP printer that worked with Mac straight off the box. For every other printer, whether at office or home, I had to perform some additional manual steps to print using my Mac. So, loo

Not the GP, but here is a scenario that I am interested in understanding from the perspective of types. A calculation that involves 21 parameters (in a particular insurance industry underwriting) yields a number. A threshold is read from t

I understand. 1. Does any other provider have better spam filtering than GMail, though? Curious. 2. You can configure inbox to show all the messages in Primary. Then, the tabs don't appear. 3. I don't see any ads. Probably beca

It is anecdata, but in my reasonably large group of acquaintances and fellow professionals (hundreds), I haven't heard this complaint in ages! In any case, if you are having spam delivered to your inbox in GMail, it is very easy to tra

I reported - in reasonable detail - a similar case study, in Jan 2014: http://oneofmanyworlds.blogspot.in/2014/01/another-go-at-go-... . It was similar in that the combinations of types quickly led to a ballooning
