Four Years

481 posts in 4 years.

Last year

There’s one leap year between 2022-08-11 and 2026-08-11, so 481 posts in 1461 days is 3.04 days between posts, average.

plot of posts per month

New high and low posts per month: 17 posts in March of 2026, but only 4 posts in October of 2025. I made a mean of 9.8 posts per month, with a median of 10 posts. My posting rate went up a little from the previous 12 months.

histogram of intervals between posts

The distribution of intervals between posts still looks roughly exponential. The intervals between posts have a mean of 73.3 hours, and a median of 48.2 hours.

How have posts themselves changed over four years? I can easily count words with wc -w.

words per post as time progresses

It appears I’ve gotten a little wordier as time has gone on, and that I feel moved to write a very long post every six months or so. The median post has 391 words, the very largest has 2592.

distribution of words per post

I write an average of 524 words per post, The distribution looks like it might be log-normal. or even normal: the excess kurtosis is 3.44. How bizarre to be a statistical entity.

images per post as time progresses

Looks like I’m a little more likely to use an image in a post than I was at first. Overall, I use 1 image per post median, but the first quartile is zero images per post. I’ve used a maxium of 13 images in a single post.
