    Those are my favourites, they're chocolate-coffee cookies, she mixes espresso-mix into the chocolate before pouring it in. They're decorated with little chocolate-coffee coffee beans, which are store bought.

    upper left are the orange flavored cookies but with small cranberries I believe. Their failed versions were chocolate chip but I think she decided to go for cranberries after. I think I can get you the recipe







  • I hated those classes (we had matlab, maple and python), like I get the core idea, but all the other classes where about proofs and any exercise requiring calculations where just an illustration since the professors didnt want to waste our time crunching numbers with little educational value.

    So the tools that we were taught which are meant to help crunch numbers weren't used since the professor of other classes didn't want to be unfair to those who didn't know how to use them and more difficult calculations usually don't provide additional insight anyway.

    In this day and age computer software is better selftaught anyways since it's constantly evolving, there are too many modules to teach and there is no way of knowing which ones a student would find useful, and I don't memorize how to use them since I have to look at the docs most of the time anyway.

    I would make one exception: LaTeX. But that we had to teach ourselves...

    also fuck overleaf.
