really, it's just a mathematical construct to get a more accurate picture |
| # |
Jul 22nd 2009, 00:25 |
pointlessjon |
right |
| # |
Jul 22nd 2009, 00:25 |
jperras |
when it should really be closer to 1 |
| # |
Jul 22nd 2009, 00:25 |
jperras |
that outlier actually brings the mean to 1.8 |

one person gives it 5 stars (e.g. person who wrote article) |
| # |
Jul 22nd 2009, 00:24 |
jperras |
4 give it 1 star |
| # |
Jul 22nd 2009, 00:24 |

5 people rate an article |

pointlessjon: yeah, more like that |

it's more of a modelization of how a rating system should function, based on a few assumptions |
| # |
Jul 22nd 2009, 00:24 |
pointlessjon |
will it simply be the numeric rating where the solution you were describing is just how we get there, or are we going to be looking more at charts |
| # |
Jul 22nd 2009, 00:23 |
jperras |
we're not really collecting statistics |
| # |
Jul 22nd 2009, 00:23 |
pointlessjon |
at the end of the day, what kind of statistics will we have? |
| # |
Jul 22nd 2009, 00:22 |
jperras |
pointlessjon: yup |

Jul 22nd 2009, 00:22 |

gwoo: ha |

Jul 22nd 2009, 00:22 |
pointlessjon |
yeah let me step back -- you mentioned in the spec some crazy stuff about the ratings |

gaussians and cake? |
| # |
Jul 22nd 2009, 00:22 |

you're a fiend for the cake |

Jul 22nd 2009, 00:20 |

gotta head out for a bit |
| # |
Jul 21st 2009, 18:43 |
ProLoser|Work |
and then you would almost use filters |
| # |
Jul 21st 2009, 18:42 |
ProLoser|Work |
i mean my suggestion almost seems like 2 sets of tags |
| # |
Jul 21st 2009, 18:42 |
ProLoser|Work |
honestly how you categorize can be completely arbitrary |
| # |
Jul 21st 2009, 18:42 |
ProLoser|Work |
that too can make a huge impact |
