The application process is not very onerous and there's some stratification by gender.

Doc Edward Morbius ⭕​<p>More on "UNCLASSIFIED": there are 36,520 of those sites right now. (Despite knowing better I keep diving in and classifying more of them.)</p><p>It's not practical to list <em>all</em> of them. But we can randomly sample. And large-sample statistics start to apply at about n=30, so let's just grab 30 of those sites at random using <code>sort -R | head -30</code>:</p><pre><code> 1 sfg.io<br> 1 extroverteddeveloper.com<br> 2 letmego.com<br> 1 thestrad.com<br> 2 bombmagazine.org<br> 1 domlaut.com<br> 1 bootstrap.io<br> 1 jumpdriveair.com<br> 2 desmos.com<br> 1 leo32345.com<br> 1 echopen.org<br> 1 schd.ws<br> 1 web3us.com<br> 7 akkartik.name<br> 1 bcardarella.com<br> 1 cancerletter.com<br> 1 platinumgames.com<br> 1 industrytap.com<br> 2 worldoftea.org<br> 1 motion.ai<br> 1 vectorly.io<br> 2 enterprise.google.com<br> 1 lift-heavy.com<br> 1 davidpeter.me<br> 1 panoye.com<br> 3 thestrategybridge.org<br> 2 fontsquirrel.com<br> 1 kettunen.io<br> 1 moogfoundation.org<br> 2 elekslabs.com<br></code></pre><p>That's a few foundations, a few blogs, a corporate site (enterprise.google.com), and something about tea, all with a small number of posts (1--7).</p><p>I'm looking at some slightly larger samples (60--100) here on my own system, and can actually make some comparisons <em>across</em> samples (to see how much variance there is) which can give some more information on tuning what I would expect to find under the "UNCLASSIFIED" sites.</p><p>Which is one way of using <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/StatisticalMethods" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>StatisticalMethods</span></a> to make estimates where direct measurement or assessment is impractical.</p><p><a href="https://toot.cat/tags/HackerNewsAnalytics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HackerNewsAnalytics</span></a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/HackerNews" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HackerNews</span></a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/MediaAnalysis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MediaAnalysis</span></a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/RandomSampling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RandomSampling</span></a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/Statistics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Statistics</span></a></p>
