  • That person and the author of the article obviously suck at reading/understanding graphs. Teen pregnancies did not have a high enough percentage (and it’s good that it went down).

    Also, how do you miss the drop in the age range 20 - 24 and the rise in the age ranges above 30. It’s even indicated in the title to “40 is the new 20”.

    This is indicative of a bad economy. I bet if you add a graph showing the rise in rent, you will see an inverse correlation.





  • They code-switch between English and Hindi. If you don’t know Hindi, you won’t understand it. Are all posts like this? Of course not.

    You’re so close. Let me give you another hint: What do you think every other regional sub looks like? (I speak multiple languages, so I’ve been to multiple regionals - including in Languages I don’t really speak)

    Also, yes it is a bit racist to assume that Indians are only able to converse in an Hindi/English mix and unable to converse in proper English. On top of that it is a bit stupid to assume all of India speaks Hindi - e.g. most of Bengalurians speak Kannada.

    But there aren’t as many English-speakers as in America. I didn’t say all, I say most (this will be a recurring theme).

    You’re correct. It’s a recurring theme. You have been made aware by multiple people now that you over-inflate the percentage of USAmericans among the users of English-speaking forums and that you have been incredibly ignorant about it.

    I think none will dispute that US located users are in the majority - the majority is however not as big as you make it out to be. (and your reasoning is - for lack of a better term - atrocious)



  • Sorry, did you mean to reply to another comment? There is no reflection whatsoever to the comment you are replying to.

    Edit: As this comment has whooshed at least 6 people:

    it is very very very obvious that the article tries to manufacture outrage over one prediction model that is not publicised but avalable to the agency.

    I pointed out that there is one other, equally good model unrestricted and there are about 20 other models that are equally not listed as restricted. Again, the restriction refers to publicising, not to government usage.

    I hope this helps the understanding of [email protected] and his friends as I don’t think it makes sense to break this down simpler.
