Abstract

Understanding human dynamics is of major scientific and practical importance and can be increasingly addressed in a quantitative fashion thanks to electronic records capturing various human activity patterns. The authors of Ref. [1] revisit the datasets studied in Ref. [2], making four technical observations. Some of the observations of Ref. [1] are based on the authors' unfamiliarity with the details of the data collection process and have little relevance to the findings of Ref. [2] and others are resolved in quantitative fashion by other authors [3].
