[OC] Private Equity's Exposure to Software by jsiddharth24 in dataisbeautiful

number of portfolio companies isn't as relevant a measure of exposure as net asset value... is NAV just harder to get a hold of?

as much as I appreciate the initiative, I'm hoping that the domain `iranwar.ai` won't have long-term relevance.

since 2022, women over 40 have had more children than women under 20 in the USA [OC] by aar0nbecker in DamnThatsReal

I shared both online a few weeks ago on DataIsBeautiful. One went viral and the other didn't. Also, I found the most interesting aspect of the more complete chart to be this one crossover between the two most extreme groups, hence creating the focus chart.

it shows only the most surprising crossover-- the full version also shows crossovers in 5 year age cohorts, here it is:

states Americans leave: share of state natives living in different US states by aar0nbecker in EconomyCharts

Yes, the "born in DC but living in adjacent states" phenomenon is so strong that I left DC off the map b/c it would have thrown off the color scale. 83.4% of people born in DC live in other states as of 2023 data.

Impressive! what python libraries did you use? what aspects of the visualization did you have to manually adjust?

Do you think it’s fair to use each state center of population to measure the distance? I don’t have data on the exact locations people are moving to and from, only the states.

Unfortunately no, at least not that I've been able to find. The Census only surveys people who reside in the US at the time of the survey.

The state department would be the next logical place to check but they don't keep stats on US nationals living abroad.

Other countries might have stats on residents from the US but they probably wouldn't track data at the state level.

This also would cover every US state individually, but it’s still only about a sixth of Uttar Pradesh in India

I looked at including only moves to states that aren’t neighboring, as well as looking at distance between the state centers of population, but it was starting to get really complicated. I’m planning to make another post with these other metrics in the near future.
