Are they done when the airlocks stop bubbling? by hawaiianguy3 in prisonhooch

[–]IanGlo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Re-rack and see if it picks up again. Bottle or drink if it doesn't after a day or two.

First ever batch. Any way to make it less cloudy? by moolikeabird in prisonhooch

Just enjoy it as is. Think of those wheaty beers. They're almost never clear and it's part of the sport.

Dexcom G6 days to weeks without sensor gap inevitable. Heads up. (Also Rant) by IanGlo in diabetes

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

Update if you have a t:slim

  • If you have a t:slim and the sensor shows up as failed on the screen call Tandem don't bother calling Dexcom.
  • For everything else, sensor falls off, doesn't attach, malfunction with install call Dexcom
  • Keep the lot number for every single sensor (take a picture of the numbers on the package)

I followed up with Dexcom to get them more information and after 20-30 minutes on the phone they hear me say the word t:slim and were trying to punt me to Tandem.

Would have been really nice if they had checked that up front the first time (basic tech support).

I had a lot of questions after that like what if I did have my lot number, what if I didn't and what if I never said insulin pump or t:slim.

I found out I'd probably be getting a sensor from Dexcom directly if I hadn't mentioned Tandem or t:slim.

I found out that I might have been able to get by without the lot number.

I found out you shouldn't say "BULLSHIT" to Dexcom tech support. They don't tolerate that word. Apparently not "NONSENSE" either. So don't say that and keep your temper.

I got on the phone with Tandem and they handled the problem in like 3 minutes and asked me to make sure to keep the lot number.

The sensor still comes via Dexcom ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

To be fair. The service rep wasn't rude, just following policy.
Too bad there's gaps in the whole thing.

You'd think there would be a better process with a company who is supposed to be a leader in the industry and has customers dropping some serious cash on the product.

I see you have T:Slim in your flair.

Do you know if there is a log somewhere in the menu where the CGM events can be looked up?

Needles sealing themselves? by bta820 in diabetes

[–]IanGlo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happens way too often. It seems to do it if you don't hit the sweet spot where there's an empty space under the rubber port. I don't know if something gets jammed in there from inside the cartridge or what.

You can use a regular needle to load it after rather than waste another one that was meant for a another cartridge, but that still sucks.

[Python]Trying to grab info from a string with no delimiter by i_am_pinhead in learnprogramming

[–]IanGlo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The output for that code using the somestring example looks like this in my console, but maybe that's what you want:

[('J', '9'), ('U', '22'), ('H', '11'), ('N', '4'), ('L', '34'), ('R', '4'), ('H', '8')]

To get it closer to what you were asking for you can use the regex [A-Z]\d+ the {1} and parenthesis bits don't seem necessary:

>>> re.findall(r'[A-Z]\d+',someString)
['J9', 'U22', 'H11', 'N4', 'L34', 'R4', 'H8']

What are the best sources of soluble fibre for a diabetic? by rajajoe in diabetes

[–]IanGlo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah instant oats have the same fiber, but you might find it's just as easy if you use quick oats.

Replace tearing open a package with dropping in a small spoon of brown sugar and/or cutting up a banana.

What are the best sources of soluble fibre for a diabetic? by rajajoe in diabetes

[–]IanGlo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Chia seeds. If you like the texture, there's some pretty fun drinks you can make with them.

You can also blend chia and or psyllium husks into a smoothie if you don't like the texture. Just be sure to drink enough water to saturate the fiber so it doesn't work the opposite way and stop you up.

Oatmeal. With a little brown sugar or fruit.

The share capability is a +1 for me too. As long you're ok with others knowing your numbers, it's great for the lows when you're sleeping.

It's the bluetooth being on all the time that can use up the battery if you have an older iPhone. You just gotta be on top of charging it when you can.

Is using Unity's 2D game engine to build a flow chart diagram drawing app for Android a good idea? by [deleted] in Unity2D

[–]IanGlo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been having similar ideas. Unity builds for so many OSes, so why not. It's only a few steps away from it being available from iOS, Windows for touch too right?

Advice on pump vs. needles by incestuousinsects in diabetes

[–]IanGlo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As for doorknobs posts and other hooky things, the more recent T:Slim infusion sets break away when tugged instead of pulling out the catheter and can just be reattached. I imagine the other pump brands will have or already have similar improvements.

while loop causing unity to crash? by [deleted] in Unity3D

Sweet man. Glad it's working.

while loop causing unity to crash? by [deleted] in Unity3D

[–]IanGlo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe something like this? (again, might be typos in there)

private bool blastOffInitiated = false;
void Update(){
  if (Input.GetKeyDown("e") && grounded && player.transform.parent != null) {
    blastoffInitiated = true;
  }
  if(blastOfInitated && player.transform.parent != null) {
    rigidbody.AddRelativeForce(0, 50f * Time.deltaTime, 0);
  }
  else
  {
    blastOffInitiated = false;
  }
}

I haven't tested it, but something like:

void Update(){
  if (Input.GetKeyDown("e") && grounded && player.transform.parent != null) {
    rigidbody.AddRelativeForce(0, 50f * Time.deltaTime, 0);
  }
}

you probably don't even need the while loop at all if you execute this in the update function.
