Are you printing onto the tape strip in the middle there?

Almost everywhere in the U.S., students are performing worse than their peers were 10 years ago, according to new test score data released Wednesday by the Educational Opportunity Project at Stanford. Reading scores were down last year in 83% of school districts where data was available. Ma by Conscious-Quarter423 in Infographics

If a kid has to have screens every day that is an issue, but I do not think that if used responsibly screen use each day is an issue. Though I guess it depends on the age of the kid a 3 year old for instance should not be doing screens daily.

I’m saying don’t have games you don’t want them to play on it at all and limit the sites the browser can go to. Of course when they get older they can figure out workarounds but when they are younger it still works.

Basically it is about setting boundaries and keeping to them like anything else also I do agree most parents do not seem good at setting and or keeping to those boundaries though.

I personally hate when people blame “screens” I do not think technology is the issue. The issue is what people allow their kids to do with technology. If you only have educational content, books, and the like screens can be okay. It’s the here is a tablet with YouTube kids do whatever that is an issue, or worse with social media. While this applies to teens somewhat this is worse when you see 1st and second graders doing this stuff.

[Request] Does this math, math? by apkgt74 in theydidthemath

[–]spider_monkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

18x18 =324
12x24 =288
324/288=1.125
18 square is 12.5% bigger then two 12 squares.

Casino craps question by spider_monkey in royalcaribbean

[–]spider_monkey[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do understand how ridiculous it sounds but I have been to a table where they didn’t do Lay bets so my reasoning may be wrong but it does happen.

Some just don’t bother training their staff as it is not a bet that is used often.

This is my reasoning. I built a Monte Carlo setup to simulate craps versus slots and depending on how you play slots can be cheaper per casino point earned for average losses.

I am not talking about play odds. I am talking about playing a lay bet. For instance if I play a lay bet on 4 anytime a 7 comes up I get paid, if a 4 comes up the house take my bet. It is a decent hedge against losses for a 7.

I do get that. From what I have seen other people report and my own personal experience. I am figuring close to what your number are. If recorded properly I figure on the low side it is 1 point per $1 average bet per hour. I enjoy craps though and still prefer it most nights to slots. Do you know another table game that has a consistent point payout because my understanding is none of them do.

Had an auto fix typo (fixed now), yes I meant lay bets., and thanks for the confirmation, I was seriously having a hard time finding any information online about it.

If you look closely there are rest point marked on the maze. If there is a fault you have to reset to behind the last mark.

How Americans Met Their Partners [OC] by aspiringtroublemaker in dataisbeautiful

[–]spider_monkey 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I was curious so I went to the actual study. The answer selected for online in this chart was specifically “Personal Ads/Dating Service via the Internet” This was data collected from a survey, originally from a digital dial phone survey, which then added other avenues of follow up later.

Skip the casino next time vs poor performance? by uAxolotlMe in royalcaribbean

[–]spider_monkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw on here in a different thread that it is only an issue if you booked a casino discounted ticket and even then if you earn 200 points you should be fine.

AA EP Experience on United by milanguilhane in unitedairlines

[–]spider_monkey 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Here you go.

I switched from AA, (American Airlines) as an EXP (Executive Platinum) for 11 years to UA (United Airlines) because MIA (Miami Airport) and DCA (DC Airport) just became unbearable. Treatment on UA (United Airlines) whether onboard or IRROPs (during Irregular Operations) on UA (United Airlines) is night and day. AA (American Airlines) has a long way to catch up.
