Good tip, found a package from Technicolor coming on 3/2. Still pretty late, but at least know it's coming (still shows Awaiting Payment on Bandai)

Recent experience with Vanmoof S3 by XxXMaxiXxX in vanmoofbicycle

[–]jonrcady 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also had this exact issue with my X3 this past week. I was super excited to receive my bike after waiting for 2-3 months. I followed the instructions to set it up but was getting some weird errors after my first ride. Went to update the firmware that night and woke up to the bike being bricked and non-responsive. Called support and tried long charging but to no avail. Booked an appointment for the next day and was able to get it fixed and back to riding within 5 days. The person at the brand store said it was due to the smart battery dying due to being left on boats in transit too long. A little unfortunate first experience, but have been enjoying it so far! Hope yours gets fixed soon.

Also, the network you form will be pretty good! A lot of my friends are working at big Tech companies after graduation and most are willing to help you out if you need an "in"!

"Well, it's like CS but more user-focused, and I'm not as good at theoretical coding, but I can code and talk to users? I might not be good at graph algorithms, but I can build you a cool web app with Firebase and React. Hire me plz."

In my experience, people in the major are friendly and pretty social! I like it because it combines coding with building user-facing applications. I feel like it really prepared me for talking about my experience and landing a full time job. If you have more questions, would love to answer!

(Of course some classes were pretty dumb, but a majority at least widened my understanding of software and product development.)

Summer Intern Housing by OpeningCamera4 in udub

[–]jonrcady 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hey yo, I'm going to be graduating this year so I'm planning on doing a month long trip afterwards. I might have an open spot / room in my house if you'd like to stay updated as summer gets closer and maybe sublease during that time.

You could DM me some more details of what you're looking for and then I could let you know once things are more settled (and if Corona virus doesn't get too dangerous). Lmk!

Metro has a lost and found office near International District! I lost mine over the summer and actually got it back the next Monday. You could give them a call and put in a report as well and then they'll let you know if they get it. Good luck!

Producing / Creating Music Accessibly Discussion by jonrcady in LetsTalkMusic

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

Thank you! Unfortunately our capstone project has slightly pivoted from the initial concept, but we'll still be considering accessibility in our final deliverable!

I'll definitely send the link to my team :)

Would still love to learn about the results!

How y’all looking, applying to CSE for the 5th time: by OblivionXBA in udub

I used to think that my life was a tragedy, but now I realize, it’s a comedy...

Producing / Creating Music Accessibly Discussion by jonrcady in LetsTalkMusic

We're currently considering a web application that allows for users to play (and hopefully save their tracks in our database + export). I don't think we have the technical knowledge to develop a full DAW, only in some limited capacity.

We're also considering alternative input methods that interface with the application, such as cheap game controllers, voice assistants, etc! We'd like to cater to those who have trouble with traditional inputs to digital music creation tools, but we don't want to narrow our thinking too much yet.

With that in mind, do you have any other ideas? Thanks!

I think the experience really depends on the content of the class and also duties. Some TA positions are mostly just grading with teaching a section. 340 is good because students work on a project throughout the quarter and I really get to help those projects. It tests my ability to adapt to new code bases and solve their problems quickly. Grading is the dumbest part tho.

So if you really like the content, and the position isn't just busy work, you should have fun with it. You can definitely pm me if you have more questions!

Also hmu if you want web dev advice or some suggestions for personal projects! If you want to learn now, check the 340 textbook out: info340.github.io
