Elon Musk’s posts on X, the social media platform he owns, have a significant reach, with some posts garnering over 10 million views within the first 24 hours. A recent analysis by Jeremy B. Merrill, Trisha Thadani, and Kevin Schaul for the Washington Post highlights this influence through a visual representation of view counts versus time since posting. While the accuracy of these view counts might be questioned, the data provides insight into the platform’s visibility algorithms. The analysis also touches on broader demographic statistics, noting that Asian workers are over three times more likely to be physicians compared to other groups. Additionally, the definition of middle-income varies greatly by location and household size, and minimum wage increases differ significantly across regions.
