#142Anyone in Knoxville? :) I knew California would be pretty high up there because of SV but I didn't realize so many people on here live there. For people who are in CA, do you live there because that's where most of the tech start-ups are or because it's a nice place (or both)?
Funny to find Knoxvillains here. I've looked once or twice for Coursera meet-ups and concluded that K-town was a bit of a tech desert. (Curiously, several pagan/witch meetups are available.)

#143So there are about 25> of us from Wisconsin. What city are you guys from? I live in Milwaukee.
Madtown here. Any others? I wouldn't mind grabbing a beer with some fellow HNers some time (I can bring two of us).

#144So here are the results so far scaled to population. I took the poll result, divided by population, multiplied by 1,000,000.

One person from South Dakota responded, and you've used that to determine a score to 9 decimal places? You really need to only show scores with at least a certain number of respondents. You should also round to the nearest integer.
5 minutes with Excel - take it for what its worth ;)

#146quite a few CA-ers are moving to TX

#147Washington State actually seems the most disproportionately represented (relative to population)
Microsoft, Adobe, Amazon; all have or had their headquarters near Seattle.
Puget sound metro is just as big and bad as Silicon Valley. It's also subject to more indoor weather, which is why engineers who live there are more productive...

I really think this table would look better if you just did 3 significant digits.
Re: Poll: If you're in the US, What State Do You Live In?
#1491. California 2. New York 3. Texas 4. Washington 5. Massachusetts
As a ratio to population, Washington DC is #1, Washington State is #2. Go Washingtons.

#150Anyone in the north Idaho/east Washington region?
What is the tech scene like in Spokane? My family lives in Spokane and I visit a lot, but I can't imagine ever finding a decent job there.
