This is stupid. It will simply reflect the average number of people who have the internet per state.

- drewblaisdell 14y agoIt will absolutely not reflect the average number of people who have the internet per state.
- tjic 14y agoThis comment is foolish; it reflects a lack of understanding that reading, let alone engaging in HN, is not evenly distributed across all demographics with internet access.

- jamesaguilar 14y agoWell, you're wrong about what it will reflect. But, even with that, if the purpose of the poll was to find that fact out, then the poll would not be stupid. You can't know whether something is stupid without knowing the purpose behind it. You only know the question. You don't know the use to which the answer will be put.
- shawndumas 14y agoThe purpose was that I just wanted to know how many people are in my state that were on HN. But I decided to ask about all the states.
