Sorry - the labels would overlap a lot and clutter the graph. Would you like me to post my data table in a comment?
Here's the data:

Between 1999-2001 and 2018-2020, data from 34 states showed an increase in life expectancy. 14 out of the 16 states that showed a decrease in life expectancy (all but New Mexico and Arizona) voted Republican (overall) in the 2020 US presidential election.

The sequence 0.0101010101010… is repeating. I’m just saying that infinite does not necessarily mean “repeating”.

No. The sequence is non-repeating. Every set of “111…” has one more “1” than the preceding one. You will never see “0110” again in this sequence after position 5.
Similarly, there is no guarantee that the universe (infinite or not) is repeating.

The universe isn't infinite, and that's not what infinity means.
The sequence 0.10110111011110111110... is infinite but it is also non-repeating. The "0110" sequence only occurs once during the entire sequence.

In absence of racial differences, the probability of fatal police encounters would be the same across racial groups. It is not. Black/African Americans are 4.5 times more likely to have a fatal encounter with the police than Asian Americans. by HitchHux
Does it count if the person had a toy, or a phone, and the police claim the victim was armed?

The label "invaded by Russia" implies that Russians held the pink areas at some time in the past. Maybe "currently held by Russia" if that's what you meant.

Only 2% of Saudi Arabian women have driver’s licenses. So yes, technically you are correct, but I’m going to stand by my statement that they don’t let over half their population drive.

>The point of reporting deaths per 100k is to account for differences in the number of drivers.
I thought it was per 100k people, not per 100k drivers? If it's 100k drivers, that might explain it.

I'm surprised that Saudi Arabia's road death rate per 100k people is so high, considering they don't let over half the population drive. I wonder if the low death rates in some countries are driven by lower car ownership in general.

They didn't use any data from the past (church records, DNA samples from remains, ?) when constructing their statistical models? If not, then how did they get different age ranges during different eras?
Sorry - I can't seem to open the link in the article to the original study.

For what region? If they are trying to get worldwide estimates, where did they get their data for pre-Columbian Americas?
If they used some regions in some eras, but a limited set of regions in early eras, wouldn’t that bias the comparison?

>1 is perfectly OK for when you need to zoom in to see the difference.
Agreed. There are lots of examples where you really shouldn't start the Y axis at zero, e.g. if zero is not a reasonable value of whatever measure you're displaying. If I want to display the past few years' average temperatures in Miami, I should not start either the X-axis (year) or the Y-axis (temperature) at zero.

Reply to USA Brain Drain: % Change in Number of Adults with Bachelor's Degrees or Higher from 2020-2021 [OC] by rosetechnology
Looking at your source, all these states have increased the percentage of college-educated adults from 2006, which doesn't really indicate a brain drain.
Looking at two states each with one-year increases (Maine, West Virginia) and decreases (California, Louisiana), the one-year decrease doesn't seem to be particularly related to any longer-term trend.
2006 2020 2021
California 29 36.9 36.2
Louisiana 20.3 27.2 26.4
Maine 25.5 33.5 36

They'd kill the seller, and just let the Jew move in?

Well, no, it only prohibits selling to 'hostile countries' - i.e. mainly Israel.
>for any death penalty to be carried out
"Osama Hussein Mansour...died in July after falling from a window while being held in Palestinian custody, but it was unclear whether he fell or was pushed."
In other words, they say they'll kill anyone who sells land to a Jew, and they do kill anyone who sells land to a Jew.

I wasn't saying "it's going to be hard to buy". I'm pointing out that you will die if you do this.
But hey - go ahead and prove me wrong. Buy yourself a house, and wear a yarmulke while you move in.

Um, okay. Go ahead and find a home for sale in the Palestinian West Bank, and offer to buy it. When you show up to sign the papers, casually mention that you're Jewish, and see how it goes.
