Because good senior programmers are rare (as can be observed if you post a job listing). Most of this stuff comes from students / junior developers, where yes, they probably visit stack overflow every 20 minutes

You're not supposed to eat the xylitol, just get it onto your teeth. So use xylitol toothpaste.

Handwashing is overrated IMO. Yes, it's important for doctors and nurses(who touch dozens of sick humans a day), people who are in contact with animals, and small kids who don't have any concept of hygiene. But for the average adu

I hope we do start to go back to the more decentralized way of living, where smart highly educated workers don't concentrate in the largest cities and instead live all over the country. This is how it used to be 50 years ago.

I doubt there are really too many of those. At the most, I'd say under 50k. The real reason for the fee is just to stop spammers on the App store. It probably blocks around 99% of them, without the fee I'd wager the appstore would

Cleanliness does not really matter that much. There is little evidence for mass surface transmission. This is a disease that is spread by breathing in air contaminated by a infected person coughing or talking.

Don't care, i'll take a good web app over a shitty native app any day. Since native apps take much longer to develop and the UI toolkits are stuck in the 90s, it's pretty much given nowadays that new ones are shitty compared

This reassures the hypothesis that you probably won't catch the virus from a brief contact in a grocery store or similar if you keep your distance. Infections happen within families, and spread from one family to another by friends

What do you think would happen to the economy if we let the virus run free through the population, and eventually everyone would be too scared to leave their house and quit showing up to their job?

Yes, look at Greece, they implemented extreme measures. As a result, they basically had no issues at all with the virus compared to neighbouring Italy and Turkey.

Whether you get infected or not is a game of chance. There are a lot of factors affecting the probability: * Being indoors during contact (increases) * Duration of contact (every minute increases) * Physical distance between contacts (ever

I said mostly. Yes basic surgical/cloth masks do protect the wearer a small bit, but the air you inhale has to come from somewhere, and with a surgical mask that air is not filtered.

How about tweeting these, 1. The virus mostly spreads through BREATHING/TALKING/COUGHING. 2. 80% of infections come from FRIENDS/FAMILY. Stop going to meet them unnecessarily and spending hours together indoors. 3. Masks most

Sweden has about 10 times more deaths than their neighbours. Oh and this is with 80% of the population in VOLUNTARY lockdown, their bars and restaurants are open sure but they're empty. The US would probably be at over a million deaths
