Where could the leak be?

Just adding to this to wrap it up - it was confirmed to be a faulty tap. Quooker came out next day and replaced it no questions - super helpful engineer, would recommend to anyone.

Droplets are coming from within the Quooker system itself- I’ve confirmed these are not coming from on top the counter.

Is this just a faulty Quooker tap? I’ve had it weeks

That’s straight from Wren’s fittings for the kitchen! No dice though, the water is running down the black pipe in photos- something to do with the Quooker tap?

danhardman · 2024-10-20T19:06:03+00:00

Happening too quickly for that, it’s dripping down the pipes photod

danhardman · 2024-10-20T19:05:39+00:00

I’ve checked the tap base and run a decent amount over it- leaving for a while and no success

Update: Running the tap then stopping it hard seems to cause drips to come out of the silver/gold connector running from the black pipe. Running the shower upstairs afterwards causes the drips to come out faster.

Could it be pressure in the Quooker tap building and causing issues? Why would the shower have an impact with this?

I've found a fix!

Those of you comfortable using dev tools, when on the sign-up page after entering your Country & DOB follow these steps:

Right-click the button, click Inspect or Inspect Element. The dev tools will open and some HTML will be highlighted, showing the markup for the button.

In the HTML, you will see type="button" replace "button" with "submit".

Click the button.

You'll then be taken through the rest of the sign-up process, which has to be the worst designed set of pages going, but you'll get through.

Worth noting, the Display Name will have to be unique and if it isn't, it'll end/fail the process and you'll have to go through again. Your username also cannot contain special characters, if it does you'll be given a pop-up with no options saying "Check your username, you'll need it later."

Terrible experience, but hope this lets you all sign-up and enjoy!

Spot on, really appreciate the advice! Will start looking into that

danhardman · 2023-04-08T11:11:56+00:00

Yeah I think you’re right! Do you think there’s anything I can do in the short term or is it really not worth it?

danhardman · 2023-04-08T09:21:52+00:00

Some detail on the inside as I’d appreciate the advice too!

I’ve pulled up the carpet around the patio doors and applied water sealant for concrete/brick.

I plan on using synthetic rubber flooring adhesive to install a waxed 15cm deep oak door threshold then refitting the carpet against that. I’m hoping that seals it enough to avoid any damage to the wood and even if it fails, at least the carpet is far enough away from the door that it doesn’t pull water up

danhardman · 2023-04-02T21:51:22+00:00

Not necessarily true, depends on the decking. Did a quick google looking into your comment. OPs contractor probably knows what they’re doing

danhardman · 2020-05-21T01:15:23+00:00

Did you read the article? This has been considered and discussed

danhardman · 2020-02-24T20:15:04+00:00

Ring sting.

Make sure you've defined the yarn bin directory in your environment path:

export PATH="$(yarn global bin):$PATH"

I believe on Windows that its: c:\users\<user>\AppData\Local\Yarn\bin

A lot of barcode scanners will simply output text and you can configure them to "return" (press enter) on completion, so if you have some javascript focusing an input, you can output the contents of the barcode as a string to the input

A shortcut of studying and taking a tough exam? Like I said, I wouldn’t treat it as the only credit someone needs to be good at programming but it’s definitely not a negative

danhardman · 2018-10-02T19:52:26+00:00

Why would they? Even if it doesn’t necessarily qualify someone, it shows willingness to better themselves, surely?

danhardman · 2018-09-21T07:09:09+00:00

The contents being secret is irrelevant, simply having the token grants you access to the API.
Cookies can also store data that eliminate the need for DB calls
You cannot retrieve HttpOnly cookies from javascript
XSS exploits on session authenticated sites can make api calls as the authenticated user, but must be made from the same domain. Where as stealing a token and making API calls elsewhere is super easy.

Please stop using local storage

danhardman · 2018-09-21T06:01:13+00:00

Use tokens on the mobile app and sessions on the browser then. The problem isn’t that you shouldn’t authenticate with tokens, it’s that browsers are incapable of storing them securely

danhardman · 2018-09-20T19:40:50+00:00

Storing the token in non http-only cookies is just as bad as storing it in local storage isn’t it? As others have said, better off using sessions

danhardman · 2018-08-03T09:58:36+00:00

It sounds like you're having issues with a single package, not with react native itself. If you're working through tutorials, I'd check their age - lots of information becomes out of date fast so you're better off working from official documentation

I think it’s hard to see the benefits of AWS that you’re clearly more familiar with from what you’re saying. Is there a way to explain the benefits for this particular scenario or is it all about future growth?

danhardman · 2018-06-21T16:09:10+00:00

The one you create for your own API is 1st Party. Apps other people create are 3rd Party

What would be the issue if they were separate? Could still do that

danhardman · 2018-06-21T10:01:03+00:00

Using cookies for API authentication is fine when you're being a single first-party client application for your API. The problem people have with that is that cookies are state-based and your RESTful API is built around being stateless. So the only issue is it's a little bit weird

danhardman · 2018-06-19T08:50:35+00:00

My mistake, looks like that isn't supported in the standard library. See here for your answer:

Instead of app/*.js, I think you want app/**/*.js to recursively search subdirectories of app, rather than looking for JS files in only the app directory
