/prog/ actually moves quite fast.  I stopped really keeping up with it when there were more new posts than could fit on the front page in 24 hours.

Well, that's me convinced :)

This ignores the 19,966 posts with a timestamp < 0 (5.86% of the total amount), because there's no way to place them properly. Shii_tchan is a joke.

Did you mean: with a timestamp < 0 and = 1234?

For a long time, /prog/ moved pretty slow, with somewhere between 5 and 15 posts a day. Of these posts, half were quality programming-related posts, and half were single-line meme evocations.

It used to be that you could go to bed, wake up, and be met with a small handful of posts. Go away for a week, and you'd still be able to find the threads that you were looking at before you left, on page one or maybe two. Now, I just can't keep up with this place. I'm sure there are some good posts being made in here, but I just can't be bothered to wade through all the shit to find them.

Look at all those bot posting spikes. If you look carefully, the graph seems to drop below zero at one point near the 1000 mark.

>>14
Does that a few times. The line is too thick.

1103874660

(That's December 24th, 2004, by the way.)

Here's the data ignoring the time < 0 posts:

Mean daily postcount: 173.96
Mode: 134
Standard deviation: 289.87

Mean ignoring top and bottom 5%: 139.01
Mode: 134 (obviously)
Standard deviation: 109.63
I'm ignoring the top 5% to account for bots and brainless spam, and the bottom 5% for symmetry and /prog/ downtime.

>>13
Only 241 of the 1945 days /prog/ has existed for had between 5 and 15 (inclusive) posts, and barring days for which /prog/ was down most of the time, we haven't had any of them since early 2007.
