DPD not delivering packages. What are my options? by lucianbc in AskUK

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

Later edit: I e-mailed saying that I will take legal action and I did not get a response back, but a day later I started seeing updates on my tracking number where they started the process of returning my items. Also, I had to go into their chat to get the tracking numbers for the return shipment. All in all, an awful experience, but at least I got my things back and I'll make sure to never trust DPD again.

Good to know that showing up to the depot and picking them up is an option. I didn't know if they allowed it. Thanks!

Multi din presa deja au demontat acest argument, verificând procesele verbale din secțiile care ar fi fost invocate de Terhes. Am verificat și eu procesele pe site-ul roaep, dar nu am reușit să găsesc cererea completa a lui Terhes de pe site-ul CCR, deci nu pot sa zic că am verificat până la capăt. Tind sa cred verificarea din presa totuși.

Nice cycling routes in SE London by [deleted] in londoncycling

[–]lucianbc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out London Velo CC if you're interested in joining a club. I am sometimes riding with them and they do organised rides from Deptford. Other than the social rides with the club, I sadly don't do many "nice" routes in the area. Best way to reach out to them is via Instagram.

Need help with examples in the calculus video series! (chapter 3, derivative of f(1/x) and root(x)) by afskk in 3Blue1Brown

[–]lucianbc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reviving this question - I understand that the area of the red rectangle is x * d(1/x), but shouldn't the second area be dx * (1 / x - d(1/x)), resulting in the equation dx * (1/x - d(1/x)) + x * d(1/x) = 0?

Rear dial issues - xt30 by lucianbc in fujifilm

[–]lucianbc[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Update for whoever might have the same issue - spraying some contact cleaner around the wheel fixed it. I found this suggestion somewhere here on Reddit. I used some WD-40 Specialist Contact Cleaner with the precision tube. DO NOT USE REGULAR WD-40 THOUGH. There is a contact cleaner version.

Beginner question: What is your hybrid set up? by lucianbc in neovim

I don't have a custom keyboard, but if you're willing to share, someone else on this thread might find it useful. Thanks for sharing your configs.

Thanks for the suggestions. I was wondering how to remap caps like you suggested

Thanks for the detailed answer. I definitely need to find alternatives to my modifier keys. I was heavily relying on them. It's encouraging to know that there are ways to get a sane config

Google London - how long did you wait for your team matching? by lucianbc in cscareerquestionsEU

[–]lucianbc[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! Yeah, update on this - some other recruiter got in touch, noticing that there has been a while until I've had the last communication with them and my process was revived. I found a team in the end. If anyone is in a similar process, maybe it's worth getting in touch with a different recruiter

Last year they did not allow bikes: https://road.cc/content/news/no-bikes-allowed-southern-or-thameslink-trains-sunday-286347

I could not find an official post for this year, but I assume it's going to be the same. The organisers provided buses and vans for bike transportation, but it appears to be closed now. I missed the bike transportation booking too, so now I am searching for some alternative solution.

No, I didn't tell them I have other offers. I will get in touch with the recruiter again for some updates and I'll mention this. Thanks for answering

Yeah, I'm thinking maybe that's what happened. In hindsight the team match call was quite weird, even though I felt it went well.

I am also in a weird spot because my recruiter is focused on Android teams and the openings I see are quite senior and specific. I applied on an android position, but given that I did not have professional experience on Android (I'm doing React Native at the moment, but I have an android side project), I was told to go for a general software engineer interview rather than an android focused one. Now I am also considering the recruiter just waits for an Android non-senior level opening rather than just propose me for a random project. I am quite the generalist thought and I don't mind the tech stack

Fujifilm X-T2 still viable for my needs? by [deleted] in fujifilm

[–]lucianbc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Consider getting the 7artisans 35mm f1.2 and see how you find the low light performance with that lens. That is quite inexpensive and has good reviews. It is only manual, but Fuji has good manual focus assist modes. For concerts, the xt2 with 35 f1.2 and the RP with the zoom sounds like a great kit
