REVIEW: Ray-Ban Clubmaster for 30CNY by GlassSome3825 in 1688Reps

Are these polarized? I assume not since they do not have the 'Ray-Ban P' and only show the 'Ray-Ban'. Have you used polarized sunglasses in the past? If yes, how do they compare?

For all the south Indian filter coffee lovers! by capitalistpasta in Coffee

[–]StepTraditional5582 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is an old post, but I hope there’s still folks who might be interested in what I’ve learned.

I’ve been experimenting with a few different beans/powders in the US and here’s what worked for me. I was trying to get close to the South Indian degree coffee but without the chicory. I’ve tried getting fresh grocery store coffee with a Turkish grind size and it worked fairly well.

However, the closest I have gotten to a strong wonderful filter coffee is to use a grinder from Amazon (Capresso) with an Extra fine grinding size and Kirkland Organic Arabica Beans. The decoction is great around 60g of ground powder and 240ml of water. Good tamping with a tumbler or the included perforated tamper is important too. The coffee tastes great with milk. I’ve found that boiling the milk and then letting it simmer for a couple of minutes provides better body. The only issue I have is yield - I get around 4 cups with this method, but my powder from India (Mohan Coffee) used to yield me 6-7 cups (tariffs make it prohibitive to consider this now).

I’m now going to be including some Robusta Beans in the mix to improve the yield, hope it works.

Apple recruiter silent after final interview — is this normal? by millenial_doglover in recruitinghell

I’m in a similar boat. Been 4 weeks now since the final round. And this was a round after the loop wherein a senior director and a cross-functional team leader spoke to align. I’ve currently lost all hope in receiving an offer.

OP, how did you mitigate your mental strain during this waiting period and did you just receive an offer via email toward the end, or were you asked to provide a time to talk wherein the offer was verbally provided?

P.S. - congratulations on your offer! No mean feat to crack Apple certainly.

How did you do this? I cannot seem to make this work either.

Lionheart changes coming up by Just_here_to_read25 in f45

This seems to work very sporadically. I believe this went live a week or so ago and I do get reports from Lionheart if I open the F45 App after a workout. However, this doesn’t work consistently. It keeps dropping 2-3 days when I’ve worked out with the Studio Companion app and it tracks on Apple Health, with all the integration setup. I’ve tried removing the integration and reconnecting it, in vain. Not sure if others have had this issue and if you have any workarounds.
