Love your "on average" qualification. Like the cartoon where the water temperature is fine on average, with one bucket boiling and the other ice.

The interesting question is how to define 'average'. Over what probability distribution?

Hey, anyone remember this from earlier in the week? https://daringfireball.net/2026/08/anthropics_watermark_text...

It does. There is a marked difference in certain word choices that sometime stick out like a sore thumb.
