@thdxr He read it wrong, but it doesn't make an opposite point. But it is a confusing chart as hell, at least to use it to compare these two things.
S&P500 started at at $26 and ended up at $5.5k (x 211).
Median house started at $18.1k and ended up at $427.2k (x 23).
@levelsio In general, you are right, but you read almost everything on the chart you posted wrong :D
Look closely at the chart's colors and legend and the axis on the left and right (their colors and values). And pay attention to what happens when you check "Begin at zero."
Spending some time to improve pixel art workflow using Ceramic engine. Aseprite files can now be loaded as is, they can be hot reloaded on change, and multiples files are merged on the fly in a shared atlas for best performances and memory usage 😊

@dan_abramov Between two successes there is a distance of 1023 failures, each long of almost two tries. So it is more or less what you get in your simulation. And the only mistake is that in previous example you considered 10 tries as a distance of 1 :)
@dan_abramov Your simulation is ok. Think about it that you can lose or win. And loosing can be any sequence of 0, 01, 001, ..., 0000000001. So the average length of loosing sequence is 0.5^1*1+0.5^2*2+...+0.5^10*10 more or less 1.99.
@photonstorm Actually I noticed what is a cause of this :) There is some div from https://t.co/M8yFIfG9NV that captures the events. It was hard to notice at first, but the button itself in the game is working perfectly fine :) Maybe moving it to the left side would help.
