there was this great talk at one of the zig conferences where a developer talked about how they preferred static types because of their adhd.

static types are also an accessibility tool

My intuition is that it can vary based on how serious things get and what exactly it is that you are measuring, but I should clarify... I'm not as well-versed in *applied* statistics to be sure. Just that my interest in cognitive biases helped here :p

For something casual, averaging seems fine tho.

In this case, if your stats went up just due to October having more days, then thinking that your stats went up in October for some substantial reason would have constituted denominator neglect.

Time for me to infodump! :p

What you just avoided right there is called denominator neglect. It basically means you consider only the number of times something happened, forgetting how many times it could have possibly happened to begin with.

Also because I think just because you're struggling shouldn't mean you can't enjoy games, art, or any form of culture for that matter.

The idea of pirating anything myself does make me slightly uncomfortable nowadays, but that's conveniently when I don't have a need to pirate anymore.

Of course "people" meant generally might have a different response to this, but it wouldn't matter to me. Partly because I've been in precarious situations myself, where spending money on games would've been irresponsible.

If not for this bias being that strong for me, I would probably have felt like I had lots more to say. Because it really holds me back from expressing a large portion of my thoughts in social situations, since I assume that others must already understand what I might have to say.

yes algebra, why lie, when linear was enough?

I do!! Although I won't objectively be that good with geoguessing in actuality.
