  • Average is the mean (i.e. sum of all “skill” divided by the amount of programmers)

    What they were thinking of is the median (50th percentile = 0.5 quantile), which splits the group in two equal sized groups.

    For a bell curve, they are the same values. But think of the example of average incomes: 9 people have an income of 10$, one has an income of 910$. The average income is 100$ ((10*9+910)/10). The median is basically 10 however.




  • Depends a bit on what features you want to have. I use LibreELEC to run Kodi (and nothing else). Previously I used OSMC to run Kodi and some other things (steam link among others). You can use an app (kore) control kodi, which is very conveniant. RF remotes work well too, apparently.













  • Many older projects don’t get migrated to containerized infrastructure and smaller businesses don’t want the overhead it creates to run a single app/webpage. Plain LAMP with FTP access is still the most common way to host I think (and thus the cheapest if you consider the amount of work that would need to be invested to containerize).
