So here is a made up question: "How many times a week do you drink coffee?"
For me the answer is zero times a week, because I am allergic to coffee. So the answer is zero, not n/a right?
Thank you for bearing with my while my fevered brain tries to keep up.
I'd say zero for that situation.

If the previous question said "do you drink coffee?" and I'd marked no for that response, and then the next one asked about number of times, I'd use N/A there since I'd already previously answered no.

I'd also mark N/A if I didn't want to tell them about my coffee drinking habits at all.

Thank you for clearing that up for me.

In general, from a statistical standpoint, most researchers would rather a numerical response. It's easier to deal with 'data-wise.'

Plus there's the inevitable result of that, even if you manage it.
Nah that doesn't kill me like VDX used to.
Of course the hours involved in it are significantly less too.

Nah you underestimate my vacations.
I've taken a month+ off several times but it seems like I'm still here because I refuse to stop shitposting. :thumbup:
I have never even taken a full day "off." At the very least, a scraper will be on and I'll submit a HIT. I feel too anxious about missing something I should be working on, otherwise. Of course, my horse is unbelievably high, so "something" would be a :kryssyy: level batch.
