The design team has been rolling out design updates to sites as part of network-wide update to a new base css framework. The updates allow us to:
Use .svg sprites for retina displays
Fix layout bugs globally
More easily add new features to all of our sites in the future

@ShadowWizard I know, but that stat still makes me wonder. It give me a strange feel when I see that most 10k+ users on SE have at least 1milion PR and then you see an user with 13k that have just 180k PR..... when you at 4k rep have 200k PR
I know that it is a coincidence... but there is that part of me that keeps repeating "sooooockpuppeeeeeets" in my ear
I wonder how credible is to have high scores with such pitifully people reached stats.
@SPArchaeologist nope. User with high rep and low PR means he's active in "low profile" tags which don't get many views, yet manage to get upvotes. If you post a fair answer in high profile tag, it's really easy to get high PR.
@ShadowWizard wasn't the score based and weighted on your best answers/question? if that is the case the weight should favour you for having more votes, even if the tag is low profile
@SPArchaeologist it's per-post, not taking only your best post. In each answer it check its score against all other answers, and if it's in the top X (not sure what X is) then the question views apply to the PR.
This goes both ways, someone with a single answer on a question with 100k views can have his/her PR drop to 0 upon a single downvote, or upvote on other answers.
@ProgramFOX to honor a high rep user who passes away. The team contacted his family and as comfort told them "he really helped lots of people" and then got stuck - how many people? Can we know? And from there the idea for this stat came. :)
@rene hmm... so you can do a query that show a list, not just a single user. Would be different enough to justify new answer on @Roombatron5000 feature request. :)
@ShadowWizard I guess it was not such a good idea to open PyCharm while Avira was scanning and VMWare was shutting down, and then I accidentally opened Visual Studio to make it even worse :P
