@davepl1968 It's funny, I actually was independently thinking about asking this at interviews, but after all never asked, instead focused on more traditional questions.
@davepl1968 Because you imagine that if you were standing in mirrors place you would turn around the Y axis, not X axis or some other vector. And that's because people walk on land, maybe people born in zero gravity wouldn't think that it flips horizontally.
Air pollution has dropped significantly in #Paris in the last 15 years. Mayor Anne Hidalgo’s leadership has traded car space for green space, safe bike space, kid space.. and traded pollution for people.
Good trade.
🚨 Stop chasing the p-value!
Increasing your sample size will always yield a significant result.
Even for trivial differences.
🎮 I created a little interactive playground to illustrate this issue:

Always pair p-values with effect sizes!
If you are Palestinian in today's world, no one will protect you, no country will say or do anything consequential at all, essentially you don't have human rights. Sad and scary, that it is still possible after all the declarations that all human beings are equal.
There is a ceasefire deal, so I want to share this story from my past year reporting inside the State Dept. trying to answer the central question of Biden’s foreign policy:

Former unelected EU bureaucrat says that EU can cancel election results in any EU member state if it doesn't like the outcome. Looks like EU elites completely lost the plot.
NEW - Former EU Commissioner Thierry Breton fantasizes about a possible annulment of the upcoming elections in Germany: "We did it in Romania, and we will obviously have to do it, if necessary, in Germany."
"The world needs America and its exceptional principles more than ever. I will cheer for Zuckerberg without reservation when he works in their service. Now how do we get the UK and the EU to pivot as well?" https://t.co/JcgMIuU3RK
@3insy Если всё так уже расследовано, то каких полицейских или местных чиновников, покрывавших групповых насильников, посадили или хотя бы уволили? Ощущение, что, на самом деле, всё спустили на тормозах с минимальной публичностью, с приговорами отдельным насильникам для галочки.
You can control anybody's opinion on anything through sampling bias
If group X does thing A 1000 times
And group Y does thing A 10 times
If the media (as an example) reports on all 10 incidents from group Y and only 1 from group X, then most will believe group Y does A more
