250 million non-US users to 4.3 billion Internet users (excluding the US) is about 5.8%. Compared that to 23% in the US. Twitter is very US-centric.

A link for those who prefer reading: https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-020-02053-6 It seems like this method can be generalized to a detection problem. Anyone knows other applications of this technique?

The math template (the HTML one, not MathJax) and many other templates don't work well with the mobile version, and the talk page isn't there. On desktop, I suggest installing Stylus and using a more readable and elegant Wikipedia

I asked my parents once about the eye floaters but they didn't seem to get what it is, so I just assumed it's only me. Granted, as a kid I had this egotistical sense of self, to which I attributed a number of misconceptions about
