Ask PG: How is a user's average on HN calculated?
A recent post did better than my usual submissions, yet the average hasn't changed. Is the average calculated at a set of intervals?
- cperciva 16y agoAsk HN/PG: How often does karma average get updated? 6 points by pg 6 days ago I don't know. There's a background process that runs every 45 seconds and picks a random loaded user to update the average of. Empirically, not more than every couple days, at best. http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1875635 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1875635
