DickFiasco@sh.itjust.worksto Mildly Interesting@lemmy.world•Americans overestimate the size of minority groups and underestimate the size of most majority groups18·5 days agoHere’s the methodology according to the YouGov website:
Methodology: This article includes findings from two U.S. News surveys conducted by YouGov on two nationally representative samples of 1,000 U.S. adult citizens interviewed online from January 14-20, 2022. The first survey included questions on groups involving race, education, income, family, gender, and sexuality, while the second survey included questions on religion, politics, and other miscellaneous groups. The samples were weighted according to gender, age, race, and education based on the 2018 American Community Survey, conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau, as well as 2016 and 2020 Presidential votes (or non-votes). Respondents were selected from YouGov’s opt-in panel to be representative of all U.S. citizens. Real proportions were taken from a variety of sources, including the U.S. Census Bureau, the Bureau of Labor Statistics, YouGov’s internal poll results, and the results of other well-established polling firms. Most estimates were collected within the past three years; the oldest is from 2009. Because the real estimates presented cover a range of time periods, they may differ from actual population sizes at the time our survey was conducted.

DickFiasco@sh.itjust.worksto politics @lemmy.world•AOC Exposes Catch in “No Tax on Tips” Rule in Trump’s Budget2·9 days agoI played around with incomes in the $25K-$50K range and came up with similar numbers to yours. Basically, someone in that range who makes most of their income from tips stands to save anywhere from $1K-$3K, which could be significant. As AOC pointed out though, that could quickly turn into a net loss if you lose Medicaid benefits.
DickFiasco@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Science@lemmy.world•Whatever your field of expertise, are there any popular science books you'd recommend that do a good job of presenting it to the public?English12·10 days agoRust: The Longest War, by Jonathan Waldman. It somehow makes metal corrosion interesting.
Also Napoleon’s Buttons by Penny Le Couteur, a good look at chemistry throughout history.
DickFiasco@sh.itjust.worksto politics @lemmy.world•AOC Exposes Catch in “No Tax on Tips” Rule in Trump’s Budget9·10 days agoI have to imagine that many people living off tips aren’t making a whole lot of money, and consequently aren’t currently paying much fed income tax anyway. How much money are they really going to save from this?

DickFiasco@sh.itjust.worksto Games@lemmy.world•What are your favourite single-player games without much fluff, grinding or difficulty spikes?English18·14 days agoSlightly old by now, but Portal and Portal 2 remain two of the best games I’ve ever played. Gameplay is intuitive and linear, and doesn’t require grinding or building up resources. I thought the difficulty increased appropriately as well.
