This is fantastic.


Hopefully it'll mean journalists actually start reading before they copypasta...

Nice article. I remember taking biostatistics and the morale of the class was that health studies are almost always garbage to find real correlation or causation. For example for cancer, smoking was like the only real correlation cuz it was like 4000% correlated. Other stuff is way less in the double digits only.

Btw dunno if any of you guys play Heroes of the Storm. I just started it. Valla is like a Vayne with Ashe volley (no slow though) and a Katarina ult (you can tumble doing).

I leveled to 12 recently for the Hearthstone card back and now I'm in the same pattern of completing daily quests in Heroes as I am in Hearthstone.

heh that diet article.

i love neil degrasse tyson's tweet about dieting. something to the effect of "a physicists diet book would be only one sentence long: consume calories at a lower rate than you burn them"

thats why im eating these shitty ass 400cal lunches and going to bed hungry every night I think its working tho. cutting out snacks is the hardest......

The seductiveness of how maths "proves" things is not just limited to economics! From an epistomological perspective, the scientific method has been one of the most important tools we have developed. And crucial to this is the testing phase. In modern times, a lot of this means things like clever use of statistics to determine if results are relevant on a statistical level as well as meta analysis (i.e. analysis of a large number of studies themselves).

Unfortunately.... well, this blog post on Star Slate Codex does a far better job of explaining it than I ever could. (Star Slate Codex is also a really good blog btw)

It's a long but I recommend everyone read it. Well worth the time.

I've taken courses on critical analysis of scientific papers, statistics, and have been involved in academia myself.

The scientific community is rife with bullshit on all levels to put it bluntly. You have to be extremely careful to know what to weed out and why.

I did a quick calculation and under the assumption that I level all currently available heroes to 20 it will take roughly 235 days to farm sufficient gold to purchase all the current heroes.

The tricky question is how much of the roughly 11730g per month I'll make on average will be essentially negated by the release of new heroes. It's likely that it will take twice that long or more to actually "catch up".

Speaking of leveling and time investments, I've been having a really good time just playing WoW and leveling characters. No stress of gearing, no schedule to stick to, just going to zones that I've not leveled through or have and really enjoy.

Fortunately, Witcher 3 has seemed to cure that itch I was feeling.

Must be nice to be white.

You're just paying them back for raising you feeding you clothing you and giving you a home for something like 18+ years.

My mum said something really cute a long time ago

she said she expects me to pay that back to my own children :3

*scip as a dad*

uh, no, can't imagine it

you can, but you don't want to, your mind just shies away from it

We could start a betting pool

Who's more likely to have kids, scip or lt
