Only ~30% of people on HN are from the US and I'd assume that the number of non-US people who watched NCIS in the original language are comparatively low.

- password4321 4y ago> Only ~30% of people on HN are from the US Does anyone have time to cite a source for this? I was thinking this number was a lot higher.
- Sebb767 4y agoSure! There are no definitive numbers, but we have a few data points: Dang mentions quite often that HN has a very international readership, for example: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23363430 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23363430 and https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23438403 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23438403 and https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27052434 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27052434 An old poll with 32% US (probably the number I remembered): https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13819771 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13819771 There's also a recent poll w/ 47% (2346 of 4891), although this might be timing related: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30210378 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30210378
