Weekends and government holidays were deliberately excluded from the dataset. (because they would be devastating to their narrative) They also did some rounding fuckery, which I'm going to attempt to undo by just showing fractions.

The 73¼% of posts made on workdays is proportionally very close to the same as the roughly 71½% of days in the year that are workdays. 1¾% more posts are made on workdays than would be proportional.

It describes the standard government hours for a working working day as being between 7:30 am and 8 pm Eastern time. (7:30a-5p shifts) This 11.5 hour period makes up about 76⅔% of the average waking day and only contains about 66⅔% of posts, meaning 10% more posts are disproportionately being made outside of the workday timeframe. Not sure how commute time would affect this.
