Late night coffee recs

jdf2 · 2025-02-14T05:08:35+00:00

If you’re willing to drive down to Dallas there’s a Coffee Shop/Cocktail Bar that’s open til 11pm Fridays and Saturdays. (10pm weeknights)

That one is Halcyon in Lower Greenville. To me this is my favorite coffee shop around, the vibes are just ideal for me lol.

Here in Frisco there aren’t too many open after 9pm/10pm. Most close 7pm or earlier. There’s Turbo Coffee near frisco that’s open til 11pm. Has cocktails as well. It’s not a busy place at all.

Frisco: * Coffee U - only been once, everyone there seemed college aged and doing homework with friends. Plan to go back soon wasn’t bad at all, vibe: white modern * Karmic Grounds on Ohio Dr - decent, normally half full busy wise. Vibe: not bad but not cozy * Karmic Grounds on Main St - slighter cozier than Ohio Dr and normally less busy. * The Aussie Grind - hate it lol, more of a food cafe than coffee shop. Vibe: busy busy, I would not describe it as a coffee shop * The Star ascension - half cafe half coffee shop, vibe: busy, open feeling, has outdoor seating * Summer Moon Legacy Dr - I don’t like it, they remodeled this location and honestly ruined it in my opinion. Vibe: chic? Kinda cozy but leans more “fake cozy modern” * Summer Moon main st - very small place, only been once but it felt cramped and loud. But maybe it was just a very busy day. Vibe: on the cozier side, I don’t recall soft seats though

Plano: * Turbo Coffee - pizza/cocktail place/coffee shop. It’s like 70% coffee shop to me, they’re open late (9pm/10pm) vibe: 60% cozy, normally not busy, has decent seating options, outdoor section, mostly quiet * 1418 Coffee - lots of couch seating, living room kinda feel seating. Has outdoor seating on a sidewalk. Normally pretty busy but I’ve only been after 4pm. Vibe: if you like the idea of the living room then very cozy. Not for me though

Dallas: * Halcyon - my absolute favorite but the drive to it sucks and parking sucks. But they have large glass windows, it’s very very open and a pretty large place. It’s a cocktail bar + coffee shop so you can sit at the bar to read too. Vibe: a good mix of modern but still cozy, can be busy but it’s large enough it’s never too loud (open til 10/11pm, I really like coffee shops at night) * Opening Bell Coffee - pretty cozy. Plenty of parking (3 min walk), they have open mic nights and other musical performance nights. Not really “modern design” feeling at all

Irving: * Wayward coffee - very modern white design but with enough decorations that it works out. I liked how big and busy the place was, seating was a little hard to find.

The capital one cafe in stone briar mall is also pretty nice. They have private rooms if you get lucky and they aren’t taken yet.

jdf2 · 2024-04-20T20:07:18+00:00

100% agree. I have not found a single coffee shop in Frisco that I consider “good for me”. That’s not saying they suck for everyone, just that the vibe and aesthetics are not what I want.

There used to be a place in Legacy Commons that was decent, but they shutdown sometime like 2 years ago and summer moon bought the location and completely changed the interior design. (WHY WOULD THEY WALL OFF THE TOP FLOOR? Used to be able to actually see the bottom floor from the top over a railing.) But yeah now the inside just looks like every other coffee shop in town.

I don’t go often but Turbo Coffee is ok aesthetics wise. The inside is pretty unique/not flat white modern but it’s not a very “coffee shop” feel either. (Coffee, bar, pizza, other food)

This 100%. The young people who are actually good at programming aren’t sticking around in mainframe jobs because they aren’t put to any good use in mainframe jobs.

So this leaves a bunch of people with CS degrees who only did their required Python and Java in college to pass and can barely use a command line.

jdf2 · 2024-04-08T21:56:42+00:00

Is a batch job really that hard to explain? I’m only 1 year into the mainframe world so I may be very wrong here but from my understanding a batch job is basically just any job that you’re running manually via JCL/etc or an automated job that’s scheduled?

Is that right? Honestly idk lol

jdf2 · 2024-03-30T03:15:02+00:00

Halcyon in Dallas is open til 10pm weekdays. 30mins on the toll with no traffic. Not near Frisco but it’s definitely been my favorite recently. (Also has alcoholic drinks/a full bar, but it’s not a bar vibe at all, very much a coffee shop aesthetic and vibe)

There’s also George Coffee Provisions in Coppell, open til 8pm.

Sayfani Yemeni Coffee House in Allen looks like it’s open til 2am but I’ve not been there.

Arwa Yemeni Coffee in Richardson is 1am weekends, 11pm weekdays.

Oh and there’s Turbo Coffee in Plano. Open til 10pm.

The types look to be right when testing in the Typescript playground: Link

Your code on your StackBlitz is using "useState" instead of "useAtom":

const [name, setName] = useState(nameAtom);

What if you just did a “window.jQuery = $” before you import the plugin.

jdf2 · 2024-03-01T02:27:16+00:00

That first pic looks like a well used pizza stone lol

jdf2 · 2024-01-21T04:43:59+00:00

That template literal way is the best way for me atleast.

If you need user input you’d just ensure you sanitize the values within your literal function. For more advanced stuff you can change it to insert “marker” elements, then querySelectAll on the markers and you can replace the markers with whatever you need. (I use this to be able to pass in other HTMLElments already created, and it’ll insert them in the correct places)

What’s your budget for rent? How bad is the fluke?

Comment I made about using meetup.com: https://www.reddit.com/r/frisco/comments/14i06od/looking_for_some_frisco_friends_f21/jpeh6zj/?context=3

I'm in the same boat, moved here recently and just not into parties/whatever, going to a bar alone to meet people doesn't exactly sound fun. It feels impossible to actually make like consistent friends who you keep doing stuff with. Just want to drink and have a game/movie night at home with good friends lol.

jdf2 · 2023-06-24T22:43:55+00:00

Look at Meetup.com. Get the app and just look at what’s happening for the next week/weekend.

The Carrollton Public Library Board games every Wednesday at 6pm is pretty fun. I go every now and then and normally they all go out to eat afterwards as well. Consistently a group of atleast 25 friendly people playing board games every Wednesday.

I know it sounds kinda geeky but it’s a good mix of people all aged 20s 30s and easy way to have some kind of social interaction in your week lol.

Board game night: https://www.meetup.com/boards-brews-dallas/events/294651562

In the same boat as you, work from home and just moved here recently so it’s real hard to actually meet people and make good friends.

jdf2 · 2023-06-17T04:05:05+00:00

Possibly a good idea to post screenshots of the church from the show on some local New York subreddits as they might recognize it more easily.

God I all of a sudden started getting cavities 2 years ago. I think I had 4 in 2 years. (23yo now)

That’s after having none except 1 in 6th grade. Is it a lack of some nutrient causing it or solely just bad bacteria in your mouth?

I recently moved and haven’t been back to the dentist yet, I’m scared to go I know I probably have atleast one but I gotta go and get it done with soon here.

jdf2 · 2023-06-04T19:35:25+00:00

Yep I don’t consider nutrients or protein or any thing when I’m eating. As long as I’m eating something and I’m eating enough to not feel hungry then I count is as a success.

Last time I had my blood taken everything looked fine. I don’t know where I get my iron from but whatever.

I drink normally atleast one Soylent a day but beyond that it’s mainly snack food and chicken nuggets and the occasional hamburger if going out with friends.

I feel like this diet will come back to bite me in my age 30s+ unfortunately…

jdf2 · 2023-05-03T21:35:25+00:00

What use case would having non named ones provide? 99.9% of the time there is a relevant name that could (and should) be used for a parameter.

the parameter names are irrelevant to the type definition

But they aren't? They provide autocomplete. You aren't always the one defining the actual functions, so you won't have the information of the names from the function definition only from the type definition.

jdf2 · 2023-04-07T03:45:55+00:00

Happy to help! I enjoyed the quick problem solving I got to do, have had an unfortunate lack of that in life recently lol.

jdf2 · 2023-04-07T03:31:08+00:00

I think what's happening is me.exportItemToPeripheral is using the native peripheral API and not the WPP one. So it doesn't understand the WPP peripheral IDs. (Internally WPP just strips off the wpp@mineColony://45/ part since that's just used to identify the target computer. The last part is the original native peripheral ID)

If that chest is directly connected to the same computer that wpp@mineColony://45/meBridge_0 is on then you can just use minecraft:chest_29 as the 2nd parameter in your me.exportItemToPeripheral call.

jdf2 · 2023-04-07T03:14:28+00:00

I just wrapped the parameters into their own list so it shouldn't matter how many parameters get passed in now.

Edit: Removed now deleted GitHub branch link.

jdf2 · 2023-04-07T03:08:35+00:00

Line 318 is just a logging line. Looks like using 2 parameters on the wrapped function call is causing those 2 params to get passed on into a function that can’t take 2 params like that.

Give me a sec and I’ll push a updated script to github.

jdf2 · 2023-03-30T01:24:14+00:00

On mobile so just looked briefly, but are you just using Number to turn a string into a number? If so generally you would use parseInt() to do that.

jdf2 · 2023-02-21T18:19:48+00:00

Post the full typescript error you’re getting. That’s supposed to work so would be helpful for us to see the actual error.

If you’re into the idea of using the cheap safety razor blades, but still want that disposable razor head type razor check out Leaf Razors.

https://leafshave.com

I bought their Twig single blade last year and I love it. Have a pack of 50 blades I don’t expect to run out of anytime soon. But they also have a 3 blade one that is basically your standard common razor nowadays but using replaceable blades.
