From Wikipedia

During the U.S. presidential primaries and general election of 2008, the site compiled polling data through a unique methodology derived from Silver's experience in baseball sabermetrics to "balance out the polls with comparative demographic data."[3] He weighted "each poll based on the pollster's historical track record, sample size, and recentness of the poll".

Since the 2008 election, the site published articles – typically creating or analyzing statistical information – on a wide variety of topics in current politics and political news. These included a monthly update on the prospects for turnover in the U.S. Senate; federal economic policies; Congressional support for legislation; public support for health care reform, global warming legislation, LGBT rights; elections around the world; marijuana legalization; and numerous other topics. The site and its creator are best known for election forecasts, including the 2012 presidential election in which FiveThirtyEight correctly predicted the vote winner of all 50 states.

During its first five and a half years, FiveThirtyEight won numerous awards both when it was an independent blog and when it was published by The New York Times. These included "Bloggie" Awards for "Best Political Coverage" in 2008 and "Best Weblog about Politics" in 2009, as well as "Webbies" for "Best Political Blog" in 2012 and 2013. In 2016, while under the ownership of ESPN, FiveThirtyEight won the "Data Journalism Website of the Year" award.

The website's logo depicts a fox, in reference to a phrase attributed to Archilochus: "The fox knows many things, but the hedgehog knows one big thing."

Ubiquiti Wireless AP Speed Test

Internet Surge Protection

The APC surge protector is now installed. Farmers Telco Ethernet cable from the outside media converter now connects first to A PC surge protector, then to Farmers router. Green wire, the ground line, runs from the surge protector to the ground lug on a 110v plug which is plugged into the structured wiring panel surge protected power strip. Time will tell if this solution works. Or should I say the next lightning storm will be the first real test.

Boxwood Wireless Network

Lighting hit close to Boxwood about a week ago.  It knocked out multiple electronic devices, among them a wireless access point. Using this as an excuse to upgrade, 3 new Ubiquiti access points (UniFi AP AC Lite) have now been installed and provide whole-house wireless coverage.  The image below was produced by their system support software.
