alt Hacker Newsoh, interesting, I assumed the data came from interruptions (that seemed obvious) but I'm surprised you had some specific negative measurements. How do you decide the magnitude of the number? Just counting how long both parties are talking?

To be clear, it wasn't my research, I got it from studying some linguistics papers. But it was pretty straightforward. If I am talking, and then you interrupt, and 300ms later I stop talking, then the delay is -300ms.
Same the other way. If I stop taking and then 300ms later you start talking, then the delay is 300ms.
And if you start talking right when I stop, the delay is 0ms.
You can get the info by just listening to recorded conversations of two people and tagging them.
