Neat! This does seem algebraically coherent. Unfortunately, it just doesn't make intuitive sense to my lizard brain. Cool trick anyway, thanks for clearing it

Cool trick anyway, thanks for clearing it up!
- andreareina 5y agoIt's the heart of the difference between the two statements: - The average streamer makes $x - Streamers make an average of $y
- scrollaway 5y agoVery beautifully and succinctly summarized. :)
- bongoman37 5y agoWhat do we mean by "average" streamer? Would median be a better term here?
- andreareina 5y agoColloquially, the kind of results you'd expect if someone told you they're a streamer. If you wanted to be more precise then median would work, as would the mode.
- milliondollar 5y agoSorry, whats the difference here? -avg streamer makes $x. Total = $x * # streamers -streamers make an average of $y. Total = $y * # streamers Average is always sum/n?
- ppseafield 5y agoA streamer that is considered average - has an average number of followers and subscribers - could be expected to make about $X. The average income of all streamers (including super popular streamers and streamers with 1 follower) makes is $y. Because the streamers in the top 1% make several orders of magnitude more money, $y is skewed higher than $x.
