+/- 20% per repeat

Last night must have killed off more of my neurons than I realised for me not to know this for sure...


If it is a +/- 20% per repeat, than the more repeats a project has, the less likely the final amount will deviate from the standard rate.

i.e: the more repeats there are, the closer the final amount will be to +/- 0%


:?:

My recollection of probability mathematics does serve me right?

Yes. Think of it this way: you have one project that is ten days worth, and 10 projects that are 1 days worth. If the big project is a +20% project, then each of the small projects would have to be +20% projects to match the output. The larger the number, the closer that the average is close to the daily rate.

Of course this was already the case for having many projects ...

Hmm. Looks like when you repair mechanized projects you also remove randomization of others.. I just end two wood colections and both have value exactly typed by me (375 and 600)

The final fix was committed but not rolled out - That should be fine now
