"50 are female

Nope.
#Inter* and #nonbinary people exist.
Even if we are as "rare" as people with red hair or green eyes (i.e. each ~2/100)
yes - good to hear that things seem to be getting somewhat better
I hope you can understand I still feel dismayed that there is as much suffering as there is
@Sheril Interesting. The grouping of Asia would include India, China, Oceania?
2016 data I see.
Is there major shift since you think?
Considering COVID,
Population declines and inclines associated with changing fertility rates, etc,
political interference (eg wars),
climatic influence,
world economic pressure
I ask out of interest. Thanks for posting.
Jazzy, her source was likely a YouTube video
From March 2016
There is a video from 2022
If you do a Google for
"100 people in 2022, " you'd likely it
in this case she offered 27 categories of being. so 729 is rather a maximum of possible combinations. it is a matter of our determining the types and number of categories. given the global population is 7.888 Billion we are allowed roughly 88,814.41325 categorical differences to account for each one of the 7.888
@Sheril Interesting but when I saw that last bit it was... something.
*insert gif of they got us in the first half, not gonna lie*
@Sheril and monthly
30 use Facebook
16 use Instagram
12 use TikTok
3 use Twitter
0 use Mastodon
Edit: I should point out that in this case there's a substantial number who don't use any social media because only 40% have Internet access which makes the Facebook number even more impressive. Plus the numbers won't add up to 100 because the categories are not exclusive.
@Deus @Sheril haha, I see what you did there. But you missed the next tag is #scientist so I was rounding. 2.5M/8B is unfortunately less than 1 in 100. Actually about 1/33rd of a person in 100.
However my post was not intended to be negative, not even skeptical. Just putting a perspective on things. Although to be honest having 1 in 3000 of the entire planet's population using your product is actually pretty damned good!
@Sheril it sort of checks out; europe is, i'm pretty sure, the smallest continent, almost squeezed in entirety into one time zone. The world population is probably relatively young though the implications of that are quite disturbing. I thought there'd be more muslims and buddhists but i suppose not 🤔 the college degree percent also threw me off 😭
The language data also doesn't match my previous assumptions although i've mostly had an earlier/older study for reference. Also it's interesting to think about whether any of these has changed in 6 years and how so
I looked up some more numbers out of interest, mostly from WHO.
Around 7-10 would be LGBTQ+, with 1 or 2 people being trans or gender diverse (the younger set would have 1 or 2 more).
6 would be Indigenous.
15 would be disabled
2 in wheelchairs
5 with hearing loss
(Difficult to say about blindness)
3 with ADHD
1-2 autistic
3 with asthma
Somewhere up to 10 with food allergies (difficult to say)
9 with diabetes (half of them undiagnosed)
As clearly seen in this photo of the Cabinet who are the leaders of the Government in the UK …..
( despair: time for change ).
Maybe the numbers for who have access to water will decrease from 91 and maybe have it already done so if this numbers are from 2016
Мировая статистика в режиме реального времени: население, правительство, экономика, общество, средства массовойинформации, продовольствие, водные ресурсы, энергетика и здравоохранение. Интересные статистические данные - счетчик населения Земли, выбросов углекислого газа, мирового голода, государственных расходов, производственных показателей, данных о потреблении и многое другое.
Curious about the #Languages list. The total should be > 100 because many people speak two or more languages.
