Volatility = standard deviation of day-over-day % changes in launches over all 8 complete days (needs 5+ changes). Only categories averaging 5+ launches/day are ranked (1 smaller ones left out). Doesn't depend on the period switch; weekday/weekend cycles are included. Hit rate = share of launches with 10+ votes (PH) / points (HN), counted only once a launch is 48h old.
