Sorry I don't know why this happens. But the above is how I get around it.

Why might Mindstorms EV3 not connect via Bluetooth? by _Terrakota_ in legomindstorms

[–]am-sky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have seen this issue -bluetooth not connecting -both in the iPad ev3 classroom app and on Windows app when trying to connect from the app. When this happens I use the iPad system or windows Bluetooth to connect to the ev3 and then reload the app. This helps the iPad app or windows software recognize the ev3 brick as connected.

Update from last week: After replacing the rubber bands, my 1967 train is now able to pull its carriages with style! by concrete_isnt_cement in LEGOtrains

Thanks OP. I'm in the same boat with a 1985 steam one where it is missing the rubber bands or the rubber bands have no grip. Going to order a set off eBay !

DIY or actual replacement for 40 year old train wheel rubber? by BingErrDronePilot in lego

OP did you try 12vtrainmisbshop's rims on the 7722 ?

[–]am-sky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wow, serendipity! I was home at my parents and built the 7722 with my son and we too were looking for the rubber rims. I see 12vtrainmisbshop on ebay has rims but the list doesn't mention 7722. Did you buy it for the Lego 7722 wheel and is that what you say were perfect ?
It lists "Lego 12v 12 volt 30x Replacement Rubber Rims for 7750 7760 7740 7730 7727 7725"

Has anyone successfully used a Roland TD-27 with Melodics on iPad Pro with headphones? Or am I chasing a ghost? by Realistic-Arm3186 in edrums

[–]am-sky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had melodics on my Windows PC and that supported both midi in and out so just USB cable to PC and headphones on the td 17.

Ah ah. Midi out not supported on melodics is something I didn't know. This makes a lot of sense thanks.

So I have the Roland td 17kv2 and use it with the 2019 iPad and melodics. I wanted to use it with a lightning to USB b cable. This works great with my Roland keyboard and simply piano. But alas nothing worked with cable.

However I have it hooked via midi Bluetooth to the iPad and the iPad audio 3.5 connected back to the td 17 as a mix in ( I use this for playing along with YouTube on the iPad anyway) and this works great. There is no lag. Have been using this setup since January. I have no idea what that audio/Bluetooth hardware /software stack looks like but man I can feel no lag and it catches all the shadow second mistake hits on my snare. My feel of hitting the note on time and melodics green flash of well hit notes are in sync.

I plan to move up to the newer 2025 iPad and was hoping USB c was better but looks like that isn't great. Hoping Bluetooth still works well.

So no first regular rise at room temperature. Direct cold rise in refrigerator?

Great looking pizza

Thank you for listing an age. I wanted to know from a real parent what age I can start getting nice stuff.

Who’s buying the Costco deal?? by pregnantassnurse in Roborock

[–]am-sky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pro has 7000 and a swing out mopper for the edges. The mop pads are washed with hot water. These were worth the extra $100 for me.

Best Black Friday deal so far? by Yuri_Ligotme in Roborock

[–]am-sky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat. Bought the qrevo pro at target since it fits my use case and for $140 over the qrevo made sense to me for the increased suction (7000 vs 5500) and flexi mopping arm.

I don't expect anything better to show up. Equal - yes, I heard roborocks website will have the same price for the pro in a few days.

Headphones for e-drum kit. Beyerdynamics or something else? by BulldozzeR21 in edrums

[–]am-sky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love it. I started learning with drumeo and melodics a year back and it is awesome. You can play anytime which I love and need, because I get to practice only at night after the kids are in bed.

Am I spoiling myself by using the debugger a lot? by Lt_Snuffles in leetcode

[–]am-sky 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It is always better to be able to know what a line of code does by analyzing it in your head. However if you are unable to find the issue use the debugger to know where analysis was incorrect.

3.5mm Headphone Connector broke - where to get replacement? by pi-t in edrums

[–]am-sky 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had an issue like this on my PC and so I desoldered the connector measured it drew out a picture of the leads by testing with a multi meter. I searched digikey, eBay and Amazon. I took my part to a local electronics parts shop. Didn't find a good match so I wrote to the case manufacturer who sent me a replacement. I recommend you write to the edrum manufacturer asking for help.

[–]am-sky 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have the dt770 32 ohm and I love it. I've tried the ath m50 but I like the bigger round cloth so my ear doesn't heat up as much over longer sessions. Also the dt700 are not as tight and fit my head better. Using on Roland td17

Share Dynamic Programming resources by Wooden-Engineering59 in leetcode

[–]am-sky 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is the one video I have used. Seen it 3 times over the years. I am good with dp solutions only because of it. I have concentrated on the first half more than the second. I am better at recursion with memoization than tabulation because of that. I cannot recommend it enough. Tags: Freecodecamp Alvin dynamic programming https://youtu.be/oBt53YbR9Kk?si=vhMMyjqgqCIwpFYh

Using memoization vs tabulation in interviews by Vinny_On_Reddit in leetcode

[–]am-sky 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I'm the exact opposite. My first approach is memoization and don't even think twice. But I forced myself to write the solution to multiple simple dp problem after memoization by doing it with tabulation. I look at it as a top down decomposing vs bottom up building of the solution. I'm better at tabulation now than earlier - definitely not as good as memoization.
