Question
Is biometric screening to open a door or do some other thing permitted on Shabbat? I ask because I read there was a rabbinic ruling that said one can use an electric keycard on Shabbos, and this wouldn’t be an issue of “writing” since the biometric detection is purely digital. So, according to those poskim who allow a hotel keycard, would this be permitted?

Question
I have a friend who makes ramen style noodle soup on Shabbos where you add hot water from an urn to a cup of dry contents including noodles. The rabbi my parents followed when I was growing up said this is forbidden because the hot water cooks the noodles, and this is what my family practiced. My friend follows a rabbi who permits it if you use a kli sheni and then transfer the water into the noodles. She served soup like this to all her Shabbos guests, and all the other ones accepted it. To not offend her, I declined by saying I was not in the mood for soup at the time. What should I do in the future if I am faced with a situation like this?
