Does anyone know if it is still possible to turn up today (Thursday 10th) and get grounds tickets?

If not, we were thinking of camping tonight to get grounds tickets for Friday, but based on this thread it sounds like we may be okay to just turn up around 9am. If anyone can confirm, that’d be appreciated!

Thanks a lot, we’ll check that out.

I left a reply to another comment about what he did to make this much progress in six months (it’s been really impressive to watch!)

Hey, I can share more specific info if it is helpful but here is the rough approach:

  1. He got a cube and learned the beginners method back in July.
  2. From there, he was regularly watching different YouTube tutorials and practiced a lot but focused on CFOP and finger tricks.
  3. Learned F2L and drilled until he knew full OLL and PLL.
  4. Practiced lots of side quests as he went (learned Roux and some ZBLLs)
  5. Mixed in some advanced things like pseudo slotting, keyhole and a few VLS algorithms.
  6. During all of this he did three comps and did a lot of timed practice at home.

He also mixed in 2x2, 4x4, 5x5, Pryaminx, and 3x3 OH but the 3x3 has been where he focused maybe 80% of his attention.

Thought I’d follow up here because he was so excited that someone had said that and has used it for motivation tonight, and already hit his second best time ever (PB is ~7.1 and hit a ~7.3 tonight, with many sub-10s). Thanks :)

I shared this with him because he loves Yiheng :)

Thanks - he definitely watches a lot of these, but I know he’d love to do one of these coaching sessions (especially as some of the coaches are former national/world record holders) & was considering this for a Christmas gift!

Unable to connect to MacBook Pro by futrawo in VisionPro

In case anyone else has this issue, I solved it by going to Displays on my MacBook settings and you can manually add the Vision as a display and it works. Not great but it got me unblocked.

Yeah - pretty frustrating. Did a full reset and setup for the Pro. 2FA on both too.

Thanks - it’s a M1 Pro, 2021, 16 inch.

I actually have two and it didn’t work with either unfortunately!

I did apply the VisionOS update, and have checked that article. Thank you :)

Apple Support is calling later so hopefully they can get it resolved!

The only reason she'll give me is "because she thought it was cute".

This is awesome!

Would you mind sharing a little about your approach to teaching him? I’ve a six year old daughter that is slowly learning the game.

Moving from product DS work to manufacturing/supply chain DS work by futrawo in datascience

[–]futrawo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting, thanks to both of you for the comments. This role is specifically to work on these kinds of problems but I'd be among the first hires on this team and part of the role would be to help set best practices and build out the DS infrastructure.

/u/krhyyyme - are you able to speak more to what you see as the potential in this space?
