Patterns we track
What the labels on reports mean
A signal is a pattern someone noticed, not proof. When people report a number they pick from the 43 patterns below, so reports are easy to compare and nobody has to write an essay. Each pattern has its own page: what it looks like, why it works, what to do, and the numbers people reported for it.
