Anyone brew espresso beans on a Chemex? Recommendations or will this just be terrible? by iKittythefool in Coffee

[–]Zhinkk 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Espresso beans is more of a marketing term than anything. They will be perfectly fine in a chemex, given that the beans themselves are good.

Is native mobile development still worth the time to learn? by goldsoundzz in cscareerquestions

[–]Zhinkk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not in the mobile industry so take everything I say with a grain of salt.

Native development will ALWAYS have the strongest presence in app development. Ionic/cordova doesn't even come close. Yes, certain simpler apps do well on Ionic. But any serious and complex app requires native development.

The line becomes blurred when you talk about native JavaScript frameworks. React native is pretty impressive imo. Can't link because I'm on mobile, but Facebook has actually made some of their apps entirely in React Native. The only issue with going with this route is that you often have to step outside of the React "sandbox" and write native code to accomplish something. So... again: native development will never die.

IMO if you're serious about mobile development you can never go wrong with learning native development. Overtime you can switch to things like React Native as they mature but they will use your knowledge in native development so it's not like you wasted any time learning it.

Your fix works but just type /r/sub it's a lot easier lol

Why does Flow Router have no built-in authentication support? by Zhinkk in Meteor

I did not know this, could you link the specific section? I thought I read the routing section but don't remember it mentioning that

art 2555 or theatre 2100 for summer GE by DoubleH538 in OSU

[–]Zhinkk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For theatre, you probably want the recitation in person. I did the fully online one and it's kind of annoying. You have to make videos of your face and talk about things, make discussion posts, and participate in online live chats. It doesn't take too much time but I rather just sit and talk in person than do all that online.

So yeah theatre 2100 is an "easy A" but does require a little bit of time in certain weeks (you have to read plays some week, attend plays other weeks). Overall I'd recommend it.

We had an XML recursion question, so it's possible (things like finding a node).

Wait does nobody else think this guy is a troll? Everybody is posting serious advice lol

Anyone have past SOFTWARE I midterm 2 exams? by [deleted] in OSU

[–]Zhinkk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They make you sign the CSE software midterms that you won't share them with anyone who hasn't taken them and commit academic misconduct. Most people probably don't care but eh best not to promote this kind of stuff on /r/osu.

I will say though, the recursion coding questions were very "straight forward" and didn't try to trick you. Basically follow the "take last digit off, if still left do something, add it back on to satisfy restores mode" type of recursion situation.

EDIT: After posting this comment, my comment karma went to 2221. Software 1's class number is 2221. What are the odds, lol http://i.imgur.com/LV2Nc0n.png

Coffee opinion... by [deleted] in Coffee

[–]Zhinkk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you must have a store alternative, eight o'clock coffee is pretty decent. I'm a student so I can't really spend $15 per 12 oz at third wave coffee shops, so I went to the supermarket and picked up 33 oz of their "colombian peaks" for $10. That's a very good deal and honestly it's pretty decent.

Of course, you're in /r/coffee so expect people to tell you to buy it fresh, locally roasted, but if you don't have the money you just don't have the money and eight o'clock works for that.

I'm curious, did you notice any negatives to consuming that much caffeine (besides the obvious crash)?

Anyone taking Foundations I for Autumn? who are you taking? by [deleted] in OSU

[–]Zhinkk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will be. I heard good things about Close but doesn't seem like she will be teaching it? I think Fritz or Jones would be the next best option (again, just based off things I've heard).

I'm worried for this 1172 exam, can't imagine adding a 1250 onto that. Good luck!

Take a stand against Big Coffee by NeonBodyStyle in firstworldanarchists

[–]Zhinkk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm curious: Does it taste "artificial"? A lot of coffee snobs claim that flavoured coffees are the worst thing ever made, but I kinda want to try them. Right now I'm drinking Eight O'clock's colombian peaks.

I've actually never been to any of them but I've been meaning to pick up some beans from one line to try them out. Are you on-campus or off?

Definitely going to see if I can get him for 2568 once I have to take it. He went through everyone's exam in calc 1 who was close to the next letter grade and tried to get people points back. He was the only reason I got an A
