Who is hiring vs. wants to be hired (top-level) post count disparity could be a fun one to track.

Although I'm not sure why 2019 ushered in much better performance on those threads.

Post-pandemic people wanted to change jobs

I actually check that sometimes. Anecdotally, I remember the ratio being ~4.5 in 2019, then ~3.5 during the pandemic. This month it's at 1.8

I don't know if it really means anything though.

It might at least control for changes in the hackernews popularity.
