When I created my account in 2004 on this website, I never imagined I would reach this milestone. But I am happy to announce that this particular post is my 10000th post at CodeRanch!

Come and join me in our Saloon for the Big Ten Thousand Posts Party! Drinks are on me of course

Roel,

Since then gone 4343 days. Roughly speaking you post 2.3 posts/day.
Those days contain 6,253,920 minutes. That means to come up with 1 post, it takes for you ~625 minutes.

Ranch community is wishing you to improve those metrics a bit

One more thing, you earn 1.966766444086269e-5 cows/min. I'm going to contribute to those numbers just now.

After all, it is definitely cow worthy, congratulations

You may not be familiar with the astronomy project TRAPPIST-1. Its purpose is to search for planets outside the solar system, something which is being done a lot by astronomers today.

How is that relevant to this thread? Well if you go to their site you'll see they have a related project called SPECULOOS, so obviously they have very refined taste.

These are some very interesting statistics. Thanks!

These metrics can be easily improved using a different data set Although I created my account in 2004, when I was at my first job and worked as a Java developer for 6 months (having an alignment issue), I was not a regular visitor and contributor (mainly certification related question). But that changed at the beginning of 2009 when I started the SCJD (currently OCMJD) certification. I visited (and contributed) CodeRanch on a daily basis and that has never changed since. And if you look at my posts overview, I have 257 pages in total. In a period of almost 5 years (account creation in mid 2004 and SCJD certification started in 2009) I have only 7 pages of posts, so that's only +-300 posts in those 4.5 years (which drastically decreases my statistics).

To give a better idea of my current stats This post was my 8000th post (Oct 16, 2015), this one was number 9000 (Jan 29, 2016) and of course the OP in this topic was 10000 (June 7, 2016). So that's 235 days or 338.400 minutes for 2000 posts. That's on average 8.5 posts a day, so I create every 169 minutes 1 post

That's a very harsh statistic Because cows is quite a recent feature. I believe you can grant cows now for 4-5 years. So all posts I made between 2004 (2009) and 2012 (or 2013) were not eligible to get a cow

Pah! I passed 10,000 a couple of weeks back AND it's my birthday today; but you don't see me shamelessly touting cows and pie.

Bloody staff...

If you have posted your first post in the OCAJP forum, chances are indeed very likely that I was the first person who replied. The OCAJP forum is my second home!
