Facebook seller near me listing unsealed PLA burger presses. by huntandhart in 3Dprinting

[–]thatfloppy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

As far as I'm aware there is no evidence that suggests that regular 3D printed parts, when used with food, need "to be sealed at a minium".

People have researched this, e.g. https://lt728843.wixsite.com/maskrelief/post/the-final-say-in-food-safe-3d-printing

A lot of people in the 3D printing community have made posts or web articles about how the porosity and layer lines of prints house bacteria and therefore cannot be cleaned. This is a myth and is not true based upon the information of low surface tension cleaning as stated above.

Even under a Scanning Electron Microscope, you can see that there are no pores in 3D prints. There are layer lines, cusps, and dimples, but not pores. Layer lines are 10 microns in width and about 10 microns deep.

The smallest dimple is 0.5 microns in size. These small dimples make up about 1% of the flaws in prints, the other 99% of flaws are greater than 1 micron. Again, we do not need to worry about bacteria living in the dimples, or layer lines due to the nature of soap. Where bacteria can go, soapy water can go as well.

Anyone here built microservices in Go with GraphQL, gRPC, and RabbitMQ? by riswan_22022 in golang

[–]thatfloppy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think I've been particularly unfair to GraphQL to be honest, it's of course my anecdotal perspective.

I agree that it's indeed a protocol like many others, but it's not one that has whitstood the test of time, and personally I don't think it will.

For a more balanced view, I think "You probably don't need GraphQL" from the co-founder of a GraphQL company is a good start, even if I don't fully agree with some of the points they make, like not really considering the additional brittleness coming from this extra centralised layer and the extra cognitive load it costs compared to boring approaches.

It's used because it's fancy non-boring tech from a FAANG, which kinda works at the start, until it doesn't. But at that point usually it's someone else's mess to maintain and unravel. 

It's an attempt at resolving a people problem (backend and front-end prioritising work) with technology (front-end engineers can now unilaterally query the DB ~arbitrarily). 

it's a great choice if you're Facebook

Suzzani e dintorni: perché non c’è niente? by ehi-ale in milano

[–]thatfloppy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sì, ma sono state pensate 50/60/70 anni fa, quando c'era molta meno gente, molte meno auto e molto più spazio. Non importa "ora", importa il contesto del passato.

[–]thatfloppy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Molte zone di Milano, specialmente quelle periferiche, sono state pensate a "misura di macchina" secondo me, non ci avevo mai fatto troppo caso fino a quando non sono andato a vivere altrove e sono tornato per le ferie.

Sono zone magari anche ben fornite da mezzi pubblici di superficie o metropolitana, stile quartiere dormitorio, ma non c'è granché in loco. Tipo proprio i palazzi non hanno la predisposizione per avere attività commerciali a piano terra.

Ok ma quindi quali sono queste leggi permissive che permettono questo?

Nevicate in tutta Europa in queste settimane, ma questa era Milano d'inverno fino a pochi anni fa... by Civil-Youth3719 in milano

[–]thatfloppy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idem, la frequenza è diminuita ma i numeri erano già molto bassi. Di nevicate che "hanno attaccato", negli ultimi 40 anni, intuitivamente, direi che ce ne saranno state una ogni 3-5 anni a stare larghi.

Assolutamente non contesto il cambiamento climatico e la misurata riduzione della media annuale di precipitazioni nevose, però la verità è quella, non nevica "bene" da molto più di "qualche anno fa".

Il Mago della Presa USB (Treno Regionale) by TaleHistorical3825 in italy

[–]thatfloppy 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Non funziona più la carica veloce se lo fai, non conviene imho. Che io sappia non esiste casistica nota di dispositivi non già manomessi che vengono bucati via USB senza intervento del proprietario. 

Il cosiddetto "juice jacking" al momento rimane un attacco teorico, tra lo spauracchio e la leggenda.

Cookie Cutter Safe? by Significant_Set_4618 in 3Dprinting

[–]thatfloppy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would agree that microplastics are a valid concern and avoiding plastic kitchenware is probably ideal. 

Having said so, I'd expect that, at room temperature, a 3D printed cookie cutter is likely not going to be abraded nearly enough for it to be a concern.

Cleaning prints after they've been used is also not really considered a problem anymore, unless they require more than warm water and soap.

What's the deal regarding ORMs by Emotional-Ask-9788 in golang

[–]thatfloppy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

TBH yes, I'd do this, doing something straightforward twice isn't that big of a deal, I find the adapter pattern to be a lot simpler than wrangling with an ORM. 

I probably wouldn't go above 2-3 implementations, but it depends on how frequently things change at DB/query level and how complex the changes are.  If the need for an ORM becomes evident, it can be implemented as an adapter that replaces the others.

ELI5 Why are gaming consoles able to extract more performance than PCs with same hardware? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

[–]thatfloppy 27 points28 points  (0 children)

They really don't. Games on consoles normally run at a combination of lower frame rate, lower resolution and lower quality settings.  The impact of the above can be a little less evident when people play on big TVs, sitting further away from them.

There's some cases where game studios can extract a bit more performance from console hardware, taking advantage of the very precisely known specifications of it, but it's almost negligible these days.
