The page says Starbucks, not a random area, random coffee shop. I think it is a valid test. Starbucks is properly staffs, in reasonably busy area, the shop is enclosed.
- elcritch 5mo agoYeah but still way too granular. There’s 50 US states. Many are very different. It’d be even better if it was city based.
- kotaKat 5mo agoYou'll also need to just chop New York into two and split the city off. NYC data skews the rest of the state so hard... (north country anectedote: we leave our doors unlocked and laptops, keys, wallets, and iphones straight up in plain view in parking lots up here in rural nowhere. people are dumb.)
- hulitu 5mo ago> The page says Starbucks, not a random area, random coffee shop. Yes but the HN title says "random coffee shop".
- dangus 5mo agoStarbucks locations in the US are not limited to areas that are low crime. They are as ubiquitous as McDonald’s if not more so. Mostly I think this website is just a stereotype collector and in that sense is very counterproductive. It’s going to be a bunch of people who want to report their biases.
