In case you want to know what’s going on in the left side of that chart, they gave a log scale in appendix a. I was thinking it was silly to not just use that version on the top, but I guess log scales make big differences ’feel’ smaller.

- levocardia 10mo agoA log scale is actually appropriate in this context from a first-principles perspective. Per scaling laws (and also general behavior of epsilon-probability of failure multiplied N times), you would generally expect more vs. less effective techniques to have multiplicatively greater or fewer steps until failure, not additively greater/fewer. Figure 1 is comical, but the appendix figure is the more scientifically appropriate one.
