Hey, a fresh page without a Death Wish lecture.

Observing walls of Death Wish posts primarily about Bitcoin, followed by relief rallies of posting about trends in Death Wish posts. Torque and fillippone are thrilled by your TA. The CEO of Bitcoin has accordingly retitled the thread; @infofront, try to keep up, will ya?

Don’t worry. My most recent posting spree is only a dead cat bounce, caused by JayJuanGee’s speculation and sentiment analysis of Death Wish. The long-term trend in Death Wish posts is deflationary, due to the hardcapped supply of my time and energy. There is only one of me; and unlike Bitcoin, I am unforkable. (Tried it; didn’t work.)

I apologize for my habit of sometimes making long, off-topic posts about Bitcoin in the Death Wish Observer thread.

Some calculations based on the prolific posting habits of JayJuanGee

Based on the profile of JJG he has made 25 491 posts to date at the time of this post.
With an estimated average word count of 400 words per post:
25 491 * 400 = 10 196 400 total words posted

Assuming an average typing speed of 40 words per minute:
10 196 400 / 40 = 254 910 minutes spend typing posts (Excludes time spent formatting posts and reading replies)
or 254 910 / 60 = 4 248.50 hours
or 4 248.50 / 24 = 177.02 days

JJG started posting on bitcointalk on 18 February 2014, or 3 047 days ago.
254 910 minutes / 3047 days = 83.66 minutes per day on average spent typing posts

A typical book has 300 words per page: The Bitcointalk book of JJG would be a monster at 10 196 400/400 = 25 491 pages long or 2.55 meters thick from front cover to back.

This is the definition of POW.

Nice try but not highly impressed 😁 Reason 400 Words and your assumption is Doubtful.

Impressed a little

Edited: By the way He is True Legend over here his contribution is appreciated

I am hoping someone can parse the data and calculate an average word count per post. It might be even more than 400, although he might have become more wordy as the price of bitcoin increased over the years. A chart of JJG average monthly word count compared to the deviation from the 200wma might be insightful. Grin

Ah, TA of JJG. Accordingly, JJG is the quote currency in the new topic title. As per the orders of the CEO of Bitcoin.

40 words per minute is a slow typing speed; a proficient typist can do >100 WPM—unless suffering catastrophic health problems to a degree that would inhibit or even prohibit normal typing, like Hal. There is no evidence that JJG is slowed down or obstructed by such issues; and in the absence thereof, time spent typing is a relatively minor marginal cost.

You omit any estimate of the largest time cost in making any long, high-quality posts: Editing. In my own experience, editing takes longer than writing; and usually, the higher quality the result, the longer the time spent editing.

All pro quality writing software has wordcount as a basic feature. Too bad this forum lacks that feature.

My own posting habits here are predicted to be like altcoins: Wildly volatile, with blow-off tops exceeding JJG. But JJG is likely to stay close to his 200 WMA, while my output here may sometimes go to zero.
