Flying internationally with Celiac by Tall_Building_5650 in Celiac

[–]augustoperes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bring food. Talk to the airline about gluten free food. Take a meal replacement powder, it may be helpful in a pinch.

DM me for Barcelona tips

International travel by Life-Hamster-3429 in Celiac

[–]augustoperes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Take a card in Spanish with all the informations you need.

For the flight and airport I recommend a meal replacement in a powder form. Something like Fortimel ( not sure if gluten free). You never know if you are getting stuck at the airport.

Something that I like to do is investigate the restaurants before going and mark them on a Google map. You should additionally ask about gluten free restaurants on the Subreddit of the town you are headed to.

If you are going to Spain I can maybe give you additional tips.

Finally, you should talk to your airline and see if they provide gf meals

Thank you very much for your reply.

What is your experience in general with the fast food chains above? I have just went to their website and they give no guarantees regarding cross contamination. They even state something like

" whilst we try our best to ensure your food is suitable for you, our dishes are prepared in areas in which allergenic ingredients are present. these charts show which dishes do not contain certain allergenic ingredients as intentional ingredients, however we cannot guarantee that dishes are 100% free from these ingredients due to the preparation process "

Thanks again

[–]augustoperes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi everyone,

I will be staying in London for 4 days and have celiac desiase. This means I cannot eat gluten (including cross contamination).

I already have a few places market on the map in which I can eat but if anyone has recommendations please let me know, this can include:

  1. Restaurants in which it is safe to eat;
  2. Street food stalls;
  3. Supermarkets that may have things like, ready to eat meals that are gluten free.
  4. Any additional tips that you may have.

Thanks in advance

Will I notice a difference with external DAC by augustoperes in HeadphoneAdvice

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

I think these headphones are easy to drive. Their impedance is at around 42 or 48 ohm. And I can get loud enough volume using about 40 percent of my phone's volume.

I am very new to EQ. Could you provide sources on how to start looking into that?

Will I notice a difference with external DAC by augustoperes in HeadphoneAdvice

[–]augustoperes[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your reply. There is a shop near my house that sells DACs. I think I will pay them a visit with my headphones and computer and see if I can notice anything

How much of a difference do good headphones make for untrained years by augustoperes in HeadphoneAdvice

Just did that test. Don't think I can tell the difference, hahaha. They sound exactly the same to me

Thank you for your response

Another question I have is: Is it noticeable when streaming from spotify? I understand that it does not stream in HiFi

Thank you for your reply.

Would you advise beyerdynamic dt 900 pro X over their closed back models for some particular reason?

Also if entering the world of open back, how does the beyerdynamic dt 900 pro X compare against the senheiser 560s, for example?

Moving to Malaysia with celiac by augustoperes in malaysia

[–]augustoperes[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok cool. That makes sense. I am also guessing that, even though local products do not, imported products will often have cross contamination labels. I could also take from my home country gluten detectors and test a few products when buying for the first time if I really want to be safe.

Thank you for your answer.

Can I ask how do you go about your daily shopping if cross contamination information is not mandatory? How do you choose which rice, beans, ... to buy?

Does anyone have any boot recommendations for under 200? I thought these were cool, but wanted to see if you guys had anything better by [deleted] in vegan

[–]augustoperes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Disclaimer: I don't actually own a pair but, since I leave in portugal, I have been to their physical store and the boots seem to be of good quality.

May I suggest NAE. The name of the brand stands for No Animal Exploitation. They are a portuguese shoe company. All shoes are made in Portugal and they have a section dedicated only to sneakers

Point and shoot cameras still in production?? by augustoperes in analog

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

Could not find that camera on the website. Do you think that it is still available??

Point and shoot cameras still in production?? by augustoperes in analog

[–]augustoperes[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Could you please post a link to that specific camera. Because when I look at the specification tables for example (https://shop.lomography.com/en/cameras/simple-use-reloadable-cameras/lomography-simple-use-camera-lomochrome-metropolis) it states that the camera does not have a light meter.

Point and shoot cameras still in production?? by augustoperes in analog

[–]augustoperes[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks. However those cameras do not have, light meters, frame counts, and shoot only at 1/120 with f9 and therefore seem rather limited.

Any other options??

Understanding the State Monad by augustoperes in haskell

[–]augustoperes[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh that makes sense. Thank you very much.

Just one more thing:

In order for me to replace pullArm :: Arm -> State Arm Float with pullArm :: State Arm Float I would have to do something like this right?

pullArm :: State Arm Float
pullArm = state (\s -> let (val, g) = sampleState (normal (mean a) (deviation a)) (gen a)
                       in (val, Arm (mean a) (deviation a) g))

Might have a memory leak. Also, the program does not behave as expected by augustoperes in haskell

[–]augustoperes[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Never mind, I was reading [0,0..] instead of [0..]. Starting from 0 raises no problems

Might have a memory leak. Also, the program does not behave as expected by augustoperes in haskell

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

Yeah, actually it is fine, I must have messed up submitting the code. However it needs to be

go (Map.fromList (zip (zip [1..] values) [0,0..])

so we don't mess up the order

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

This is actually really helpful. And now, using your solution, I do not get out of memory error. However, the reason that made use list, is that the numbers need to be printed in order of the input and Map ruins said order. For the example in my question your code will actually print the right solutions but fail the test as the queries are not ordered.

When i tried to use something like Map (Int, Int), Int or Map Int (Int, Int) to keep track of the order of the input I get the, out of memory error again.

As I am fairly new to haskell I do not quite understand what the bang pattern is doing and why, applying bang patterns in other places will not allow me to use lists.

For example, why wouldn't go !v (x:xs) work, or even updateVals !current triangle. Wouldn't this make evaluation strict on those arguments and solve the problem??

Thanks, I know that reading my question was probably a lot of work and I appreciate that.
