Technically theres always a bias of the most amusing answer so the "no" would be close to 5% at a minimum.
Sounds like the lizardman constant
That was an amazing read, thanks!
Oof I didn't know that was a Scott Alexander thing
Why oof? O.o
Yep, no survey get 0.2% of any kind of response.
0.2% of surveys get some kind of 0.2% response, especially if the survey is about statistics.
that's not how it works. That's not how anything works!
Percentile of a variable != level of that percentile.
Pffft, only 0.2% of people understand surveys anyway.
Which means 0.2% lied
Or some portion of people generally prefer throwing surveys in the trash, but for unknown reasons decided to complete that one.
At least 0.2% lied.
Or they retrieved the survey from the bin, after tossing the former into the latter.
I think it's safe to assume if they didn't respond they do not love responding to surveys.
It's almost like that's the joke presented in comic form.
It's almost like my comment was dripping with cynicism.
Yeah, that's the real answer. 500 responses vs how many sent out
Also there's at least a small set of respondents with fat fingers.
