Hey #Coffee nerds! I’m doing a little research for an app I’m building. What are your favourite techniques for your #v60, #FrenchPress, #aeropress, #MokaPot etc? Links to videos/articles appreciated. 🙏 ☕️

Boost for visibility please and thank you. 🙇

Cowl for the kiddo complete! Overall happy with it but the binding off ended up being looser than I’d have liked. Heyho. #knitting

Following up with the adult one. Originally intended for myself but my wife has strongly suggesting it would fit her better. 😛

I think I might be a #MinMax knitter. I only do cowls, but I’m getting really good at them. 😛

Working on yet another #TinCanKnits cowl for my kid. Gonna work on a matching one for myself next. Really loving these colors.

two balls of yarn that go from dark green to browns to pink

Really good high level explanation on how LLMs work.

I did #BulletJournal for a few years with a pencil and notebook. I loved the process and having a space to reflect. But having to carry a notebook became impractical and I fell out of the habit.

Anyone have a favourite #journaling app or digital process? Especially interested in something with a portable format.
