   I certainly refuse to believe that we've gone through 23 thousand real, human posters since I joined anyway.

         @thelastgherkin Listen man, so long as your sample is random, there are totally no issues with extrapolating your result set to an entire populace. None.

      @widget ...That's a vague number? What, do specifics go into the hundredths?

         @zeldatra It also includes an unknown amount of spambot and @ceruleanspark accounts, so he isn't sure how many of them are actual users.

            @omni Oh, well that makes sense I guess.

      @widget Why do a lot of posts come up more than once?

         @caterpillar Because people redash them (the most-right button next to a post)

         @caterpillar i wondered why mine did, but someone redashed it...

            @unhipdruid @omni What? What does redash mean?

               @caterpillar like, retweet

               @caterpillar It's similar to a "ReTweet" on Twitter, if you've ever heard of that. Just repeat a post, pretty much.

                  @omni Why would you do that? :/

                     @caterpillar draw attention to it...?

      @widget But, I have one more question. How is a "Popular Dash" Popular?

      Sunday, 04-Nov-12 21:55:32 UTC from web
      1. Omni

         @caterpillar It gets favourited (second button from the left) or redashed often.

            @omni @unhipdruid This is so confusing. 6-9
