  1. So basically every country the US has had beef with in the past.

  2. A simple bar graph doesn’t rise to the level of beautiful data, but good effort nonetheless.

  3. So for Mexicans the US is a step up, and for Canadians it’s a step down?

  4. Re: India & China, a lot of it stems from EB-2 and NIW applicants cos they have STEM degrees and/or are experts in their respective fields. Our system gives priority to applicants that have valuable skills.

    One reason why the US has maintained technological leadership overall, is because we “brain drain” some of the brightest minds from other nations, China and India being the largest contributors.

  5. Very cool – this is exactly the kind of data that works weirdly well for a trivia-style party game I’m working on.

    I’m building a game where the question is an objectively ranked list like this. You get more points the lower you go (e.g., guessing Mexico = 1 point as its 1st, but Vietnam = 7 points). The twist is, if you guess one of answers just outside the top 10 (11th to 14th place is the “danger zone”), you lose 5 points.

    This means there the further down the list you try and guess, the more points you can get, but also the bigger the risk.

    Trying to expand the question bank right now — if anyone’s into finding creative lists like these, I’d genuinely love the help.

    No experience needed — just a good sense of what would be fun to play with friends. Happy to credit contributors in the app too.
