Results of Stack Overflow survey of 20,000 developers

Only ~13k of the 20k reported a StackOverflow reputation, and none of them had more than 10k rep? That seems odd.

No, that makes perfect sense. The ones with the high SO rep are the ones that have the most time on their hands, the others are clocking up paid hours.

Joking aside, I'm genuinely confused as to how you survey that many of the site's users and get no one with rep above 10k. Especially considering that high rep users are much more engaged and invested in the site, and so I would expect a much higher response rate from them.

According to this: http://blog.stackoverflow.com/2014/02/2013-stack-overflow-us...

10.5% had over 10k reputation.

Yeah, sorry, just looking at this now. These are all represented in the raw data as "10,000" and "5,000", etc., as though they were actual numbers; they should actually be ranges, though, as indicated by that post.

Thanks everyone, sorry I just now saw this.
