I’ve long wanted to be able to have a directory of male clothing options grouped by price, so I’ve made one after a week of research. Lists all 95 brands I could find that offer domestic shipping within the US.

Microbrands like socks-only brands were excluded, only included those that several different categories of clothes.

Women's prisons don't affect the ratios much but male prisons do because all (I think?) of them are located outside of populous metro counties.

> I remember there were some cases where a place looked like a sea of women but if I adjusted the numbers to exclude married people then the resulting gender ratios were way less skewed.

Isn't there a married man for every married woman, meaning that the gender ratio of single people shouldn't be affected by the marriage numbers? I guess the only explanation would be that there's lots of women aged 30-34 married to men 35-39 in a given county?

> It also included corrections based on data from Gallup in regards to what percentage of single people are interested in dating vs wanting to remain single

There isn't granular data for this question, unfortunately - and the estimates vary widely from survey to survey. If you know of a data source that can provide at-least state level data for this, let me know!

Most HN readers already know about "Man Francisco" or "Man Jose", but this adds in some Census numbers to explain just how many men there are out there.

Did a write up to collect all the bits of publicly revealed info, HackerNews/Reddit theories, plus my own inference based off the incentives driving the Big 3 (Tinder, Hinge, Bumble)

Don't see any reason why it wouldn't work. I suspect you don't even need a microwave in most places.

Yes but that's not what my complaints about the FTC are. My complaint is about them trying to stop Microsoft from buying Blizzard or trying to stop Adobe from buying Figma. I don't believe there's such a thing as 'monopoly on video games' or 'monopoly on website design software'.

Them working on general, consumer-friendly, sane policies is fine! But they shouldn't be preventing M&As/investments unless critical goods are involved without a substitute - which Call of Duty and Figma clearly aren't.

Monopolies can only be harmful for essential goods that don't have alternatives. The water supply is essential. Access to the internet can (perhaps) be essential. "Software to design website mocks" is definitely not essential.

Such as preventing Microsoft from buying Blizzard to prevent a monopoly on checks notes... video games? :-)

If you're worried about a 'monopoly' on Call of Duty, then I guess it's great. Otherwise I sincerely don't understand why the tech community would be supporting the FTC policies of the past 4 years.
