In point of usage, Ngrams shows a slight preference for What about you: COCA shows 770 instances of how about you, the vast majority of which are in the proper context (a few are in the form of how about you do so-and-so), and 1002 of what about you, all of which that I saw were in this context. BNC has 78 versus 202, an even more marked ... The full phrase this originated from is "do you and I'll do me". Another variation is "do you - cuz I'mma do me". The oldest reference to the phrase that I could find is from the song Do You by Funkmaster Flex (featuring DMX), from the album Volume IV, released on December 5, 2000. You can use would or could after you (see below). If you do not use would or could, then you use the past participle (past form of the verb), like helped in the last example below. Here are some correct expressions: I would be [very] grateful if you could help me practice English. I would be [very] grateful if you would help me carry this piano ... On the use of so-called 'zero genitive', marked by a simple apostrophe in spelling ('), as opposed to the 's genitive, Quirk, Greenbaum, Leech and Svartvik specify in A Comprehensive grammar of the English Language (pp. 320 & 321) that: What you won’t be able to do “prove” that something is “correct” or that it “not incorrect”. All you can do is document use and non-use, acceptability and unacceptability. No one I grew up with, whether friends or family or colleagues, ever puts things together like this. You catch more flies with honey than you do with vinegar. From what I understand now, this phrase would indicate that You make more friends by being nice than by being rude. Please correct me if I'm wrong. My confusion comes from the fact that no one catches flies in order to do anything nice to them (Well, I suppose some people do. I would feel insulted if someone responded to my "How do you do" with another "how do you do". If you dont mean to ask people how they are doing, then hello, goodmorning, etc should suffice. The use of that must have been born out of pride, where some think its disrespectful to be greeted with such inquiry, so they respond with same. I think you're right that the shortened version is heard in speach and that its meaning is understood. "Can you do me a favor" has become an American idiom, as has the more direct (and rudely commanding) "do me a favor." There is a definite difference between the two statements in tone, if nothing else, the first being a bit rude and presumputuous. Modal verbs do not use a "to". That is, you say. I can do this. The verb "need" is a funny case; it is only modal in the negative. In the positive, we already have an equivalent modal verb; namely, "I must". However, there are two possible meanings for the opposite of "I must do this": "I am forbidden to do this" and "I am not required to do this". Do I need to call him? She needs to call him. You need him. This is the more common need, a regular verb (no 'modal'). If it is used with another verb, the infinitive with to is used. It always has do-support. It can be used without another verb, with a direct object (you need him).

2024.11.28 00:29 Optimal_Net4478 Slack + Salesforce SDO
Hello hello!
I’m looking to experiment with an SDO or developer org that includes Slack integration functionality. I’d like to play around with this setup to explore its features and capabilities.
Does anyone know if there’s a free way to set this up or if there are specific steps/resources for integrating Slack with a Salesforce environment in a free developer org? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

2024.11.28 00:29 Dapper-Captain5261 Tell you what this song is about? Ok, but you’re gonna have to sit down for this
So I have a coworker who would put Spanish music on in the BOH and it would be the most raunchiest trap music ever. I’m talking about Bad Bunny, KAROL G, El Alfa kinda raunchy. Even some merengue and bachata hits are insane when I hear it as an adult.
And yes there would be people just ignoring the music and then there would be others that want a translation. Well the Latina coworker doesn’t speak English really well so she wasn’t able to explain it, so they look at me for answers. I would usually tell them that it’s “just a bunch of nonsense and the songs are designed for you to turn up” and that would usually get them to leave me alone.
Not this nosy coworker though. She was keen to know what a certain song is about. When I told her my usual spiel, she didn’t want to hear it. She wants to know the meaning behind the song “Mesa Que Mas Aplauda” and why the singer keeps saying “socks, socks,socks.” I told her that we (Latinos) don’t look too deep into the lyrics but if she wants to know the guy isn’t saying “socks, socks, socks” he’s saying “za za za” which means absolutely nothing at all and when he said “la mesa que mas aplauda le mando a la niña” he’s saying the table that claps the loudest gets the girl.
She was instantly uncomfortable but nah sis if you wanna know so much I’m gonna explain it further. I told her that they play this song in strip clubs, birthday parties, weddings, communions, quinceaneras, and just any random occasion. So for the rest of the shift I would tell her what every song is about just to make her uncomfortable. “El Venao” is about this guy gaslighting his girl after she heard rumors about him being a player. “Obsesion” is about this guy being a creep towards this girl who doesn’t want him and he’s trying to convince her to leave her man for him. “4K” is just a raunchy song about giving it to these hoes in 4k like their p0rno girls.
And by the time I left she looked like she could’ve lived the rest of her life without knowing all that. I can’t wait to tell her what “Deliquente” is about tomorrow. I bet she’ll clutch her pearls.

2024.11.28 00:29 realestatethrow2 WTF, Google? Can't cast from Pandora app to speakers now...
Well, Google has progressively made the voice integration more and more... stupid... so that it can't ever seem to figure out what I'm trying to say to play from Pandora.
No worries, I've just been using the Pandora app and casting to my Google speakers/speaker groups.
Until now. Now, it tries and then tells me "Disconnected from..."
So, what's the explanation for THIS? Google Home is up to date, so is Pandora.
I even wiped the cache/storage from the Pandora app and logged in again... same behavior.
