Oh crap, you're right. I like your idea much more than the lame increments I picked. Next time I'll use a logarithm or something.

- akkartik 13y agoNo, I like these options. You can extract the logarithm from these, but you can't go the other way around. To someone making 125k, it's more useful to know the distribution of the 25k above than to see them all in a single bucket.
- marblar 13y agoDon't use a logarithm. Most salaries are going to be the same order of magnitude.
- mc-lovin 13y agoLog base 10 would be a good compromise with the ridiculously vague "N figure salary" descriptions. Makes for much more accurate boasting: "they were offering me a 6.3 figure salary, but in the industry I'm in, it's no big deal"
