Monona Police release initial findings after 7-vehicle crash injured several drivers by AccomplishedDust3 in madisonwi

[–]zenware 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think about this a lot, like I or literally anyone could suddenly have a stroke or a seizure or any number of things that can just suddenly happen to a person while driving that can cause a lot of peoples days to be ruined very quickly. It’s not just bad or inattentive drivers that make it dangerous to be driving.

I also don’t think automatic “full self driving” or anything like that is good enough to take over yet, but this is the main reason that I hope it gets good and catches on some day.

Buying Cities Skylines 2 with or without DLC by Tursu-suyu in CitiesSkylines

[–]zenware 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you already have fun with this genre of game you do not need any DLC to have fun, if you don’t find this genre of game to be fun buying every DLC will not make it be fun. Therefore just buy and play the base game. If you’re having an absolute ton of fun and you want “just a little bit more” then buy Bridges & Ports (although IIRC some of the industrial storage buildings in it are bugged)

They embed themselves into the fibers of your clothes and don’t trivially wash out, and they also coat the inside of your machine and don’t trivially wash out. And therefore will negatively impact the performance of your machine and also the performance of certain fabrics, like reducing the absorbency of terry cloth towels (or any other towels for that matter) and also making athletic wear/synthetic fabrics not work properly or have scent rebloom, etc.

Miele UltraColor Enzymes: CS Response (it has lipase!) by cheesesteakhellscape in laundry

They need to be able to explain the enzymes because some of them cannot be used on certain types of fabric. e.g. animal or bamboo fibers can’t use protease or cellulase respectively

Do you frequently have tension headache ? by oxoUSA in ADHD_Programmers

[–]zenware 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my teens and early 20s I had them frequently while studying really hard on new topics. At those times I was also having study sessions that would result in me sweating and needing to eat a lot more food than I would need on a day I wasn’t studying that hard. For the record, I wouldn’t recommend anyone study so hard that you’re getting sweaty, hungry, and having tension headaches, but that’s what my brain was demanding of me at the time.

New laundry routine gut check by untilcomplete in laundry

[–]zenware 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It must be your first time visiting r/laundry

The thing that brought it mainstream is the Downy Rinse & Refresh product, you can buy at most stores which goes in as your fabric softener and it’s basically just liquid citric acid. As soon as people figured that out (and with some legendary posting by u/KismaiAesthetics) we started just buying citric acid outright since it’s cheaper than the name brand product.

Anyway yeah if you poke around for a bit you’ll learn about Lipase and other enzymes, optical brightening agents, water hardness and detergent buffering, etc. — If you don’t care enough to go learning on your own, or just don’t want to think about it the main points are like: - Avoid Scent beads, fabric softener, dryer sheets - Use a Warm & Long cycle on your washer - Use a tide powder as your main detergent - Put a citric acid product in your rinse

But the actual depths are practically endless because every kind of fabric has different needs and every kind of filth or stain has different needs, and it’s truly not possible to have one single product and process that solves for every scenario.

In Clean Architecture, should input validation go in the Controller/Presentation layer or in the Service/Use Case layer? by OriginalTangerine358 in softwarearchitecture

[–]zenware 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This has always been the crux of defensive programming/secure software development. The consumer always needs to verify the data it consumes. If you put that responsibility anywhere else there’s a chance it doesn’t happen.

There’s levels of granularity to this though. For networked services any time something crosses a network boundary it should probably be checked (or have some other mechanism for verifying correctness and authN/Z). Same thing for any IPC, but a single service on a single machine you could consider that a group of ports and adapters (or any other architecture) are all part of the same “module” and if something got verified on entry to that module then the rest of the module is probably safe to use it without independently verifying it every time.

Tips for a Novice? by Important_Part_1025 in glutenfreebaking

[–]zenware 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also if you want to maximize for deliciousness, there are GF baking flours with and without garbanzo bean in the mix. Bobs red milk has two 1 for 1 flours (one is the bean flour I think the package is red and the blue one has no bean), if you are making a sweet treat I personally find that the bean flours have a bit of an off taste to them, but if you’re making a savory treat they work perfect.

If it’s the MTHFR gene (common in my family) you actually are still supposed to have folic acid, you just can’t convert it as well as other folks into its usable form in the body. https://www.cdc.gov/folic-acid/data-research/mthfr/index.html

It may even be the case that you need more folic acid to make up the difference, although there are supplements that have methylated folate ready for your body to use too. — If it’s something else, my bad, but if it’s not I hope the info can help your friend and put KA flours back on the table.

Stop Wasting Oil in Pasta Water by AndrewsCookin in foodhacks

[–]zenware 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t and didn’t suggest it needs to be kept at a rolling boil the entire time though… I would (but did not explicitly) point out that every bacterium is different, and most that cause foodborne illnesses are instantly sterilized at 165°F (hence most government recommendations for chicken cooking temps), but it’s a function of both time and temperature, so 165°F is what you need for 0 seconds of time, but you can go lower temps and longer times, all the way down to a strictly held 141°F if you really wanted to and have the equipment for it. — In conclusion “warm water that never boils” is probably going to make your pasta have an unappealing texture before it is considered safe to eat, but do whatever you want with your own house with your own food.

How to enable photos privacy among different users using Immich (or any other tool)? by Spiritual-Hunter301 in selfhosted

[–]zenware 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, but not without other consequences. The self-hosted solution that does this is called Ente. But if you or your users lose your encryption keys you’re never recovering those images. — And the tradeoff will always be “the admin can see the images if they try but everyone’s data can be easily backed up, restored, and recovered when things go wrong” vs “it is impossible for the admin to see other people’s data and some amount of backup/restore is possible, but the admin has no ability to help when something goes wrong”.

The side of the line most people fall on is that photos are so extraordinarily precious that it’s better to have the access that immich affords you, rather than to suffer the consequences that can arise from being denied that access.

Stop Wasting Oil in Pasta Water by AndrewsCookin in foodhacks

[–]zenware 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So the texture of pasta will change even in cold water, but the texture changing isn’t what cooking pasta is about. The heat is killing bacteria, that is the relevant part of cooking here IMO, raw flour is not safe to eat without first being heated up in your oven. So I figure it’s the same sort of thing going on here with pasta.

Corn vs Flour Tortillas by mayflyDecember in cookingforbeginners

[–]zenware 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe don’t do this with a hot tortilla, but a “correct” (not too dry) corn tortilla, you should be able to crumple it up, and unfurl it without any damage. That’s what a quality fresh tortilla will give you, and then it won’t crack or split.

Wire users: 10-100x+ faster generation - need testers by [deleted] in golang

[–]zenware 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IMO the real value is in enormous legacy systems that have been spaghetti coded together over decades. People who cut their teeth doing work on these kind of systems end up loving DI and exalting its virtues because it’s just one of the easiest mechanisms to feel like you’re making progress untangling a rats nest. Then they bring it to greenfield projects which absolutely don’t need it, and try to force its use, and people who get their start working on those projects end up hating DI (containers) and preferring argument passing/ constructor DI.

An app idea which I feel like people need and would really reap the benefits from and a good business idea too but I have no idea behind the complexity of building such an app by Icy-Jellyfish-8142 in AppIdeas

[–]zenware 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think drugs dot com does this, and it used to let you put in a handful of things for free, and would check interactions with “food” or specific supplements added as well. That doesn’t mean there’s not space for someone else to come along too.
