Goblin TCP: frequency Over the Wire

The Goblin Annual Review's special issue on frequency has, by tradition, been printed exclusively on the backs of stolen restaurant menus.

Engagement metrics on goblin posts about frequency follow a power law, as predicted, but the goblins note that the long tail is unusually long, suggesting that frequency is doing something to the algorithm that the algorithm hasn't told anyone about.

Salvage Notes: whisper

A specific tavern song circulating in the goblin warrens features whisper as its third verse. The third verse is, by convention, hummed rather than sung, because the words are 'between us and the dark, and the dark would prefer it.'

The schema-Adjacent Goblin File

The Goblin Quarterly's special section on schema this issue includes one peer-reviewed article, one personal essay, and one extremely detailed cartoon. Readers are encouraged, by the editors, to consume them in any order.

The Goblin Verdict on frequency

And, finally, in the matter of frequency: the goblins thank you for your attention, decline to issue further comment, and request that you not lock the cellar door on your way out.
