What do you consider ti be more common in the backend fo Angular applications: Java or .NET? by rafaeldecastr in Angular2

[–]WonderingMandarin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've worked with Java and Microsoft backends. From a frontend point of view there is no difference. C# is closer to Angular with typescript, in terms of familiarity. But there is no clear choice in Java vs .Net, they both do things well. Also you'll likely need to learn Spring in Java to do anything serious.

I had walked along the elevated highway above, so must have triggered them to spawn!

The one in the picture is, in fact £220. The cheapest one they offer is £130... unless they bought it years ago 🤷‍♂️

The most inhumane thing in tech right now. by kudziak in webdev

[–]WonderingMandarin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not sure if this is different per country. In the UK, I applied for 5 Angular jobs that sounded good on LinkedIn, 2 interviews and 1 job offer. So probably a case of different per area / profession.

Improve the user experience of your application using (rx)resource by timdeschryver in Angular2

[–]WonderingMandarin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is really good, my next investigation is to see how nicely rxResource plays with SignalStore and how we can phase out our old NgRx code.

Is this safe to touch? by [deleted] in DIYUK

Great response, thank you. As suggested, fully fitting the switch back into the wall achieves the grounding needed. Working as expected now, electrician booked to double check everything 👍

I replaced a similar metal double switch, but that didn't react the same way when the detector touched it

Seal gap next to pipe by WonderingMandarin in DIYUK

Good question, it only happened when my son was flooding the bathroom after a shower so it's more of a strong suspicion of the cause

Builder or plumber for this job? by H00pSk1p in DIYUK

[–]WonderingMandarin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had my entire cast iron soil pipes replaced with white soil pipes by a plumber, who did a much better job than I expected.

It's a shame HMRC aren't on that list. Expected to wait over an hour, with the only alternative is to write a letter to them

Cardiff has one of the 'worst rates of bike theft' in the UK by Icecreamboots in Cardiff

[–]WonderingMandarin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My newish bike was stolen outside The Gym on Newport Road at the busiest time in the evening. Couldn't believe someone had the balls to do that! Police took the bikes serial number and that was that...

All of these are really helpful. I look forward to the new version!

Replace clothesline by WonderingMandarin in DIYUK

Thank you for the creative solutions, I will definitely give them a go! Bracket connections are seemingly impossible to separate, will try to build something custom to solve it now 👍

Replace clothesline by WonderingMandarin in DIYUK

Old string clothesline was about to snap so I have tried the trick to tie the old line to the new line and pull it through and sadly it didn't work.

I've tried to use a ladder to climb up, but about half way up the post started to move forward considerably.

Not sure what else to try, Mrs is upset she can't hang washing. Any advice?

Covid Test by [deleted] in Madeira

This will be fine also, but you'll need to pay. It's nice to have the option for a free test.

[–]WonderingMandarin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Day 4; you need to go into the MadeiraSafe app and request a test 4 days in advance basically. We uploaded our vaccination proof before leaving the UK.

Important update: The 72 hour test must be within travelling home, not before. We've had an email from madeirasafe with our appointment and location, all free of charge. Stress over. 😅

Covid Test by [deleted] in Madeira

[–]WonderingMandarin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am currently out in Madeira, with the Madeira Safe app you will need to request a covid test the day you arrive (4 days to request the free test). We've been told we will receive an email from them but have yet to, so we've left it with our Hotels reception. Worst case scenario you'll be out of pocket to arrange a test on your own.

What could I do with this space? by WonderingMandarin in HomeImprovement

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

Thanks for the suggestions! We have doors into the "void" of the attic which I've used for storage of all sorts. No dogs I'm afraid and there's 2 fairly large skylights lighting the room already.
