What is there not to get?
Does anyone know the specifics regarding the institution behind the project? Seems to be affiliated with Yale through their humanitarian research lab as a project group funded directly by US government money. I am firmly pro Ukraine's right to defend themselves and similarly against the Russian invasion. However, I do think there could be an issue with this research project's funding with respect to the neutrality of research produced. Looking at the project's page does not give me further confidence.
I've watched through a few of his videos and they seem like a good resource for deep dives. Will definitively keep watching while pondering some of these questions. Thanks so much for all the tips and guidance! :)
Great! That is sort of what I had hoped you would say. Having the option to start without taking grinders into consideration makes everything a little easier. However, since you are now officially my coffee guru, if you have any tips for grinders I would welcome them as well. One thing I am a little unsure of is what ranges of fine to coarse it is possible to get in a single grinder, without affecting the overall quality of an espresso grind in particular. If I could have a bag of beans that I could grind appropriate for filter, french press and espresso at the same time, that would be really neat.
Thanks so much for the detailed answer! I think a semiauto would be a good fit for me and the Bambino does look quite nice :) How big is the effect of freshly ground vs preground beans? I have no grinder at the moment, but am not opposed to getting a dedicated one. However, if I were to say go to my local coffee roastery and buy some fresh ground beans, would I be missing out on the experience?
I recently graduated and have been thinking about getting a coffee machine as a present to myself. I have a filter coffee machine (this might be herecy, but former me needed quantity over quality). Both me and my gf enjoy coffee very much, so I think we will be able to make space for it. I think she would be really happy being able to make cappuccino and similar brews, while I myself just want the pure dark gold. Could you give any pointers on where to start looking and/or specific suggestions?
Seeing I was a bit heavy on the meteorological applications, as a corollary of Borsuk-Ulam there is also the ham sandwich theorem for the aspiring hobby chefs.
Also honorable mentions to the hairy ball theorem for giving us the much needed information that there is always a point on the earth where the wind is not blowing.
Borsuk-Ulam is a great one! In essense it says that flattening a sphere into a disk will always make two antipodal points meet. This holds in arbitrary dimensions and leads to statements such as "there are two points along the equator on opposite sides of the earth with the same temperature". Similarly one knows that there are two points on the opposite sides (antipodal) of the earth that both have the same temperature and pressure.
After migrating from Solus a while ago I tried Manjaro, but quickly decided Endeavour OS seemed better. I mostly wanted Arch with some sane defaults so I think it was a better fit for me. However, I think plain Arch is also a strong contender despite IMO more annoying setup. I have had some issues with keys not syncing properly from the EOS repository.
Would say Tom is chaotic-good, while Q on the other hand might be chaotic-neutral?
