Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

What do you know today, that you did not yesterday?

[I think of it more as the press-ups equivalent of parkrun which definitely isn’t a race]

It's a race that isn't over when you cross the finish line.

[Has to be really. The mean isn’t of much use with that sort of distribution, with zero at the bottom and the sky’s the limit at the top. Same with income. When I were a lad they used to talk about the price of a three bedroom semi as the average, but that’s hardly the typical home any more.]

[Glenn I realised the distribution was skewed, but didn't twig on the reporting of it - I just always assume average = mean]
