This is a worthwhile project. HN and 'the discourse' needs a reliable, citable source for these metrics. Adding a table of citations is a crucial step towards that.
Your confidence intervals are probably more precise than an order-of-magnitude (LeBron James is the same size as a six story building, within one order-of-magnitude), and I'm excited to see the ranges as your site evolves.
- rboug 1y agoThank you! Really appreciate this. I’ll prioritize the citations/ranges table in /methodology to make this properly citable and easier to audit.
