Dude, no. I think he was talking about how you can't tell how the size of the user base of a language is affecting the ranking. So, for example, only 1% of all projects could be in Java, but the swearing could be frequent enough to make it have ~15% of all curse words.
- abraham 16y ago> Note that I ripped an equal amount of commit messages per language so the results aren't based on how many projects there are per language. All the languages are equally represented by commit count.
- lawfulfalafel 16y agoSorry, my bad.
- saraid216 16y agobut his total number is 929857, which is not divisible by 8
- abraham 16y agoWhat a bummer... The percentages might be off by a fraction of a fraction of a percent...
- saraid216 16y agoI see no reason to believe that, given his process for ripping an "equal" number of commit messages per language was broken, that anything else even approaches validity. It's simple arithmetic; a grade schooler who notices that the last number is 7 would realize something's off.
- abraham 16y agoWhat about the process is broken? Did you read the code and find bugs? With a total commit count of 929857 missing a single commit to round out to a perfectly even number of commits in each language is insignificant.
