    Eehrm, acktually, the tweet is wrong 🤓

    You can always be getting a result above average in a series of numbers as long as the nth number is significantly greater than the previous ones. For example, f(x) = x^2 would always be above average for every next number

      if it is considering the average for all of history, then the rate of change would just have to be consistently greater than 0, right ?
