		yellowapple on April 26, 2020 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: A one-line package broke `npm create-react-app` Does the census actually track that? I just did the questionnaire last night online and it didn't ask me anything about my occupation. Or did you mean something other than the US Census (e.g. GitHub or Stack Overflow or LinkedIn profiles)?

The long form asks about your line of work. Most people get the short form.

No, I meant the US census (or whatever national census), I didn’t actually check if they asked that since it seemed like such a basic thing :/ sorry.
