There would be a small counter just below the idea; meta; account sidebar telling the current number of ideas.
Close but no cigar

You can get close to it with a custom view, see link. (You just need to sum 13 numbers). Total is 16,243 as I type this. |
|
|
I have added all the ideas by a,b,c,d ect and totaled the number of ideas at12391. |
|
|
Cage match: [krelnik] vs [sufc]. Bartertown rules. |
|
|
I have a feeling I may be wrong.
I now have the total at 16246. I give up. |
|
|
[sufc] - your link gives me an error. Does it work for you? Does your name mean Sheffield United Football Club? Am I asking too many questions? |
|
|
(modular) The link works for me
Yes about the name.
Do you think you are asking to many questions ? |
|
|
Error. View expression not found: "all"
(While processing: /view/all; query parameters:
.) |
|
|
a,b,c, etc did you include 1,2,3,10, 1/2 etc |
|
|
I included numbers and !. |
|
|
go and have a lie down, there's a dear :) |
|
|
If only I could go and have a rest but I'm much to busy to do that. I have booked some time in bed for Sunday afternoon untill Tuesday Am and then the merry go round that is my life starts again. |
|
|
ok. why? people would just want to *up* the figures. I know but people are daft that way. |
|
|
sufc, you do seem to have a weird lifestyle.. |
|
|
(po) I manage bands and work as a club promoter. I try to work from home as much as possible but at the moment I am all over the place. Today Manchester, tomorrow Nottingham and Saturday Sheffield.
One of the nightclub nights I run ends at 6am Sunday morning. and then the Rugby starts.
(modular) 6 people have anno'ed this idea and 4 have voted. Not a bad percentage. |
|
|
changes weird for interesting :) |
|
|
(above) - that was my percentage
of the Halfbakery ideas. But it's
probably changed since I posted
that. |
|
|
I thought it was a prediction of the current percentage of total ideas ever. |
|
|
[sufc] Click your view, then click [edit] on the view. Scroll all the way to the bottom and blank out the box next to "Save this view as". Yes, no name at all. Now click OK. |
|
|
You'll see the same view again, but with a very different URL. It will be much longer and have lots of colons and equals signs and such in it. Use that URL when posting your view for others. |
|
|
Link reposted. Thanks krelnik. |
|
|
What might be nice would be a thing on my profile saying Rob, there are 16thousand ideas and you have looked at around 6% of them, voted on 2% and annotated less than 1%. You have writen 0.1% of all the ideas on the bakery. (To make up random numbers.) |
|
|
It would be pretty interesting I think. |
|
|
All of those stats could be cooked up using the view system and a client side script to scrape out the numbers & calculate them, save only the "you have viewed". I don't think the bakery tracks that. |
|
|
I didn't think it did, which is why I didn't really think about posting an idea. You have viewed since x wouldn't be the same. But it would be great to know how much of the bakery I have actually looked at. |
|
|
You could statistically come up with an estimate by pressing the random button a bunch of times and log how many you've seen. |
|
|
In my sample size of 1 I've seen 100% of the halfbakery, but this is just a rough estimate. |
|
|
in my sample size of 2, I have seen 0% of the halfbakery |
|
|
I scored 3/8 then ran out of fingers on my right (the haven't seen) hand. Unfortunately I have now seen all 8 of them and need to start again. |
|
|
[worldgineer], could you tell me what the formula is for estimating the total population from a sample with replacements? |
|
|
E.g. Suppose you randomly sample 30 times (with replacement), and you end up with one idea 3 times, another idea 3 times, two ideas 2 times each, and 18 singles. --> What's the maximum likelihood estimator of the total population? |
|
|
I've been seeking the answer to this on the web for years. |
|
|
I would like to see this baked. |
|
|
If you're doing 30 samples, and up with 3+3+2+2+18 distribution, there's really just one conclusion: stop eating the samples! |
|
|
I think the [random] button is rigged. I got this one up via [random] one click after getting "Idea Enumerator" the same way. Deus ex Halfbakerina. |
|
|
[phun] I love a good math challenge, but sadly my statistics is quite rusty. I somewhat recall a classroom example along these lines - having to do with pulling names out of a bag. Remind me later and I might try to solve this one anyway. |
|
|
this is like guessing how many marbles are contained in the glass jar. |
|
|
Using the MSN search tool for /idea/ limiting it to halfbakery.com I got this:
1-8 of 88,608,589 containing /idea/ (0.16 seconds) |
|
|
I conclude that this is how many ideas there are on the halfbakery. |
|
|
surely thats more ideas than are in the known universe |
|
|
I can't reproduce that result. (I get 9984, a realistic underestimation.) Got a link? |
|
|
The problem with that 88 million result is that I thought I had constrained in to halfbakery.com, but did not. When I went back and constrained it I got 3971. That search is linked. |
