Past is free software for scientific data analysis, with functions for data manipulation, plotting, univariate and multivariate statistics, ecological analysis, time series and spatial analysis, morphometrics and stratigraphy.

The download has been tested by an editor here on a PC and a list of features has been compiled; see below. We've also created some screenshots of PAST to illustrate the user interface and show the overall usage and features of this data analyzing program.

The gender gap in pay has remained relatively stable in the United States over the past 20 years or so. In 2022, women earned an average of 82% of what men earned, according to a new Pew Research Center analysis of median hourly earnings of both full- and part-time workers. These results are similar to where the pay gap stood in 2002, when women earned 80% as much as men.

While the gender pay gap has not changed much in the last two decades, it has narrowed considerably when looking at the longer term, both among all workers ages 16 and older and among those ages 25 to 34. The estimated 18-cent gender pay gap among all workers in 2022 was down from 35 cents in 1982. And the 8-cent gap among workers ages 25 to 34 in 2022 was down from a 26-cent gap four decades earlier.

The COVID-19 outbreak affected data collection efforts by the U.S. government in its surveys, especially in 2020 and 2021, limiting in-person data collection and affecting response rates. It is possible that some measures of economic outcomes and how they vary across demographic groups are affected by these changes in data collection.

Much of the gender pay gap has been explained by measurable factors such as educational attainment, occupational segregation and work experience. The narrowing of the gap over the long term is attributable in large part to gains women have made in each of these dimensions.

Even though women have increased their presence in higher-paying jobs traditionally dominated by men, such as professional and managerial positions, women as a whole continue to be overrepresented in lower-paying occupations relative to their share of the workforce. This may contribute to gender differences in pay.

When asked about the factors that may play a role in the gender wage gap, half of U.S. adults point to women being treated differently by employers as a major reason, according to a Pew Research Center survey conducted in October 2022. Smaller shares point to women making different choices about how to balance work and family (42%) and working in jobs that pay less (34%).

Democratic and Republican women are more likely than their male counterparts in the same party to say a major reason for the gender wage gap is that employers treat women differently. About three-quarters of Democratic women (76%) say this, compared with 59% of Democratic men. And while 43% of Republican women say unequal treatment by employers is a major reason for the gender wage gap, just 18% of GOP men share that view.

About half of employed women (48%) report feeling a great deal of pressure to focus on their responsibilities at home, compared with 35% of employed men. Among working mothers with children younger than 18 in the household, two-thirds (67%) say the same, compared with 45% of working dads.

When it comes to supporting their family financially, similar shares of working moms and dads (57% vs. 62%) report they feel a great deal of pressure, but this is driven mainly by the large share of unmarried working mothers who say they feel a great deal of pressure in this regard (77%). Among those who are married, working dads are far more likely than working moms (60% vs. 43%) to say they feel a great deal of pressure to support their family financially. (There were not enough unmarried working fathers in the sample to analyze separately.)

Men are more likely than women to be a boss or a top manager where they work (28% vs. 21%). This is especially the case among employed fathers, 35% of whom say they are the boss or one of the top managers where they work. (The varying attitudes between fathers and men without children at least partly reflect differences in marital status and educational attainment between the two groups.)

Since 1975 the MTF survey has measured drug and alcohol use and related attitudes among adolescent students nationwide. A nationally representative sample of survey participants report their drug use behaviors across three time periods: lifetime, past year, and past month. The survey is funded by the NIDA, a component of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and conducted by the University of Michigan.

Results from the Survey are released each fall. To get the latest information, check the links below. Note: The findings and conclusions in these reports are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily represent the views of the NIH.

How do I find specific flight details of any or each of my Vatsim flights for past years? I want to look at flight details of my Vatsim flights in year 2015 and pick one flight to get waypoint routes, airport codes, and type of aircraft used for that flight that I flew on Vatsim in year 2015?

This change happened during our data migration to new systems a few months back. This data is rarely looked at eats up valuable resources. We took the data out of "hot storage" and now its stored cold. We still have the data, its just not in a form that can be consumed through stats.vatsim.net

I hate to say it, but, this is yet another example of how a change in the delivery of services to the userbase was made with no prior announcement, leaving many to find out only after the fact. Changes to the datafeeds affected many third-party stat and logging websites. The shutdown of the Sydney FSD server has made staying connected difficult for many. The retirement of X-Plane clients without low sim-rate detection was at least *generally* known to be coming *eventually*, but when it finally happened to XSB 1.3, it was without any announcement leaving its users to wonder why they suddenly couldn't connect. Now, much historical data was archived and cannot be accessed. I'm appreciative of all the behind-the-scenes work that the tech team does to keep the network running -- I just wish less of it was behind-the-scenes.

Hey Robert,

We do have plans to do some blog type posts with information regarding the changes we have been implementing. A decent part of the software stack running Vatsim is starting to be replace with software written recently. Some of our tooling does dates back to early vatsim days. When we work to implement changes that shouldn't cause impact they are tested ahead of time but we can't always test every edge case.

Regarding older data, most people aren't looking at data older than a year. Storing this data becomes costly which is why we decided to archive a large chunk of the flight plans table in our database.

Removing my developer hat and replacing it with my consumer hat, transparency in some areas is lacking. It's less than pleasing when a change is made without notice, and whilst sometimes they seem minor enough to the developer, to the consumer they may mean a bit more than that. A clear announcement describing the change and when it'll occur would go a long way. It's a win/win for everyone, the consumer is happy (at least most of the time ?) with the transparency and the developer isn't being hounded ?. The network status page is a step in the right direction, perhaps it could be complimented with a changelog page?
