What actually happens while the logo is showing? Is that really a loading screen or does it always have to be there for contract reasons?

You can use it for that, but you have to test its claims. It's specially helpful with questions that would take a lot of research to find the answer, but which are easier to test. That could be a good thing overall. If people get used

Sure. If your kid is testing positive for a contagious diseases which killed over 6 million people worldwide and left many with long lasting effects, wouldn't common sense dictate that they should stay at home?

I was considering: https://nces.ed.gov/programs/statereform/tab5_14.asp The weekends do count, out of the 10 days they'd be out, up to 4 would be weekend days. So, really they'd have missed around 6 or 7

I was not really suggesting kids should be isolated whenever they have any sort of possible symptoms. But if you're diagnosed with some contagious illness, it's probably not a bad idea to try to curb the spread.

Assuming a 180 day school year (which would actually mean a 10 day period would be closer to 3-4% not 4-5%), that means that half of the year they are not in school anyway. So they have a good chance of catching it outside of school days an

Probably not. It's likely there are worse diseases out there that we just don't check and keep our normal lives being carriers. But once you know, it's probably better to avoid. I think questioning whether or not doing a pcr

Only if you're in a group where everyone is going to drink. If you go to a restaurant or a bar and everyone around you is drinking, I don't feel that really affects much my decision of whether or not I'll order an alcoholic d

That's slightly misleading. The final ABV is what really matters in the end. So, even though maybe only half of the wine alcohol evaporated, the fact that it's so diluted means the end ABV is probably going to be way below wine or

Why not? I don't think skipping one week and a half of school when you're 8 will have any real effect in your life neither in the short or long term future. Meanwhile, if they get in contact with someone with some sort of immunode

Even though they have no obligation to, usually a dish that contains alcohol will say it's cooked in beer or it has a wine sauce. Being prepared with an alcoholic drink is usually considered classier. I think it's more likely for

slow_add is not simple. It reimplements the Python + operator, which is quite complex, specially if you look at it from a type system perspective. As noted, its implementation is very core to the language and it has several edge cases. That

I think the fact that smoking forces others around you to smoke, whereas drinking doesn't is a big part of it. Along with the fact that drinking occasionally is far more common than smoking occasionally. Nicotine is far more adictive.

I think you're technically correct, but there are a lot of other sources of radiation in our daily lives. I don't know how much radiation leaks out, but if it's similar to naturally occurring sources, I think it's fair t

I do. Why would a Q&A site not be a good place for total beginners? The only reason it's not is the toxicity of the community.

Opinion based exists in a spectrum. I'd expect the mods to error on the side of not closing questions and letting the discussion continue. However, there are very active mods that take them as gospel and will take any chance they get t

The SO community can be pretty toxic with newcomers that don't ask questions in the "one true way". I can get away with asking questions because I know what will work, but that doesn't make the site friendlier. Also, God

Sure, we all make mistakes. But I think it's healthy to look back on those with regret rather than just shrugging it off. It's hard (even harder) to change otherwise.

From what I hear facebook is also mostly hack, which is a similar language to php. I believe it is even backwards compatible with php (or at least it used to be).

Why would sex outside of marriage be considered sex work? For something to be work you need to receive some sort of material compensation. Usually it's just money. But I guess if someone gives you a car or some jewelry in exchange of s

I think the point was that they would move somewhere for work and then look for school in a given radius from work. That may fall into a different city/town than they work or not. But they are not moving to a new city or town because o

In your example you're actually valuing the local community more than the global community. Ordering something from China probably contributes to more people's wages than commutting. There are the workers in China, land and sea tr

That's missing the point. The author is not taking about a heated exchange, but mostly just listening so closely to the point you actually get convinced you agree with someone else, at least from their perspective.
