Why'd this get removed from front page suddenly?

This is awesome! But I don't think you need to say never to all those display settings. You just need to go to Battery -> Options, and "Prevent automatic sleeping on power adapter when the display is off", and wake for network access when on power adapter.

Thanks for the feedback, would be nice to actually have aggregate stats right at the top perhaps too. So you can view a summary of the data.

It does seem off but it's directly from the Department of Labor data. The DOL LCA filings often have these misreportings where the hourly rate field is entered incorrectly, or an extra digit is added. Data cleanliness is still a huge issue, I'm realizing after working on this project.

Thinking about adding an outlier removal or flagging feature to get the obvious ones out.

Seems like this might be a data entry error in the DOL LCA filings. We are presenting the data as is, but can flag it to remove it. It does seem like a clear error, where it an extra digit was entered, or the hourly rate field was filled incorrectly.

And to clarify, this is a separate page, and separate data from the Levels.fyi total compensation data. I also doubt the US Department of Labor was reporting wages in Rupees lol, but it does seem like an error. Will take a look, and see if we can add some sort of outlier removal.
