What did you learn today? Share it with us!

We learn something new every day. This is a community dedicated to informing each other and helping to spread knowledge.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.

** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**



Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.

Link to the site

The map contains exact locations of homocides from the 2000s to now. You can zoom in far enough to see the neighborhood the murder(s) happened in. I'm sorry that the site is primarily in Norwegian, but you should still be able to zoom around. Wonder of there's a global map that's that detailed.

And that's why it's important to look at these numbers pr capita in a given area if we want to draw useful conclusions

Which also requires additional consideration for low population areas that can have their statistics swing wildly.

Yep, like when there's a remote mountain town of five people and two of them get murdered.

[–] snooggums@midwest.social 23 points 2 weeks ago

Hell, even one is 20% of the population!

[–] Droechai@lemm.ee 11 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Like the insane murder rate in Midsummer County? (If the tv serial is a valid source of murder incidents)

[–] Deconceptualist@lemm.ee 11 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

If Scandinavian homicide serials were accurate there would be nobody left!

All I'm seeing is if you're in the northern half of Norway, stay away from water and you won't die.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 14 points 2 weeks ago

stay away from water and you won't die.

I've actually found the opposite to be the case worldwide.

[–] BackOnMyBS@lemmy.autism.place 7 points 2 weeks ago

You'll die before someone has a chance to murder you.

[–] testfactor@lemmy.world 14 points 2 weeks ago

I was gonna post this if you didn't, lol.

You ever notice how the third map's actually different? How there is suddenly a red dot down at the bottom about where San Antonio is?

All are different except the middle one.
