   Good, but Not the Best B2B Database

   As a B2B database, ZoomInfo certainly has a lot to offer. Its detailed business information on people and companies is impressive, and I've found it to be a useful resource for researching potential clients and partners.

   However, I do have a few criticisms of the product. Firstly, its pricing is quite steep, especially compared to other B2B databases on the market. This makes it difficult for smaller businesses or startups to justify the cost. Additionally, while the information on ZoomInfo is generally accurate and up-to-date, I have come across a few instances where the information was incomplete or outdated.

   Despite these drawbacks, ZoomInfo is still a good resource for business information. It just might not be the best option out there. If you're willing to pay for a premium service, then ZoomInfo could be worth considering. However, if you're looking for more cost-effective alternatives, there are several options to consider.

• Vendor annoyance phone calls

  For the phone calls - there's a decent chance they got your number from zoominfo.com - you can go there and request to be removed. Source: about 1 year ago

• Forward spam emails back to sender!

  I just found a few data collator sites, zoominfo.com and signalhire.com are just two - they seem to scrape sites like Linkedin etc and collate everything. Personal numbers can be found pretty easily, if you've ever signed up for a business identification number it could be there, could be in a data leak somewhere - these companies are pretty shady and will buy data from places to just get a lead.

• Considerations for choosing an installer? Experiences with Suntuity?

  I suppose the easiest way is to just search the company on the intrawebs and see what their web site pulls up. You can kind of tell from there and their Yelp reviews/Google reviews, if they are their own company or some kind of contractor type company. I also used zoominfo.com to get a sense of how big the company was. You'll probably be able to tell from there if they are their own company or part of a larger... Source: over 2 years ago

• LLMs on the Command Line

  While I agree with the sentiment in general, I've came to the conclusion that what I really want is the flexibility of the natural language interface that LLM's provide, and the return of the correct document. No 'reasoning', no summarizing, just better search [0]. The issue with the current generation of models is that they can't reason, they may do very well at pretending to reason, but they can't [1].
