Azure Blob Storage at their Archive tier level is 99c/TB/month, but it's definitely spendy when you try to extract data from it.

If i'm reading that correctly, it was one night of sleep deprivation followed by one night of good sleep.

I've always found that the night after an all-nigher I sleep really well and wake up feeling pretty rested and good, but interesting to see that apparently only happens for some people.

I think most of these are third party metrics collected from ad services, we've seen a few choice ones from reddit about how little traffic has dropped but of course Reddit will find ways to express an ever rising metric until they can't.

Facebook somehow reports near magical user growth, but 90% of the people I'm connected to it barely seem to be there.

I strongly suspect, but can't prove, that the 80/20 rule applies to reddit. I expect 20% of the users create 80% of the content and engagement, and that even if only 1% of reddit leaves it's almost certainly coming out of the productive 20%. However i'll bet Reddit will never start openly sharing stats about how engaged the top quintile of their users are, because that provides too much insight. Much better to talk about monthly active users and count those of us that flip over there by mistake or for one community we can't replace here.

Also worth noting that reddit control the metrics that they release for a lot of this.

There's no real measure of good engagement vs shallow engagement, so they can find a way to show that user visits are up even if the worthwhile content is starting its slow slide. Shit, i probably used to visit reddit once a day for 12 hours, but now i visit 5 times a day when i instinctively enter the URL.
