@kurtstat Exactly! Although I think basically I was restating what you had already said. Your thread definitely crystallised some thoughts for me. Thank you.

@kurtstat Dashboards ENABLE analysis they don’t DO analysis. What people learn from a dashboard is going to have to be woven into some kind of narrative outside of the dashboard. That narrative starts as a conversation and if it matters enough will end up on a word document or PowerPoint.

@opinionatedobs7 @StatisticUrban It’s an illusion.

@AndreyKokoev @extramsg @EricTopol @OECD I assume there are multiple ways of calculating life expectancy and multiple organisations that slice the data but OECD latest US data is below. The US was 7th from bottom. Possibly Eric Topol was talking about the G7 which he would be correct about.

@tomkXY You see this over and over again. You’re on holiday. You have no responsibilities. Most of the people you encounter are paid to be pleasant to you. You’re constantly eating food you like and doing things you enjoy. Don’t confuse that with the experience of actually living there.

@edhodgsoned Honestly? Yeah. I’m okay with that. Most of these maps make me wince. But like half of people vaguely know where the Chagos Islands are? Yeah. Fine.

@CyderKnight @NateSilver538 I’ll give you 2 to 1 odds that the sun won’t come up tomorrow. It’s a steal! There’s a 50/50 chance it will occur!

@Otto_English Nice of them to create an easily searchable piece of text and to identify themselves as someone who suspects they’ve crossed a line though.

@byjeffsykes @PpollingNumbers @SienaResearch Going from a 600 person sample to an 1800 person sample gives you an extra 2 points in either side of the confidence interval (very roughly). You can play with this tool to get a feel for this: https://t.co/7ZHMs4fP4K

@Abe24__ @PpollingNumbers You can play about with this and get a sense of how much it matters (much less than people generally expect):

@dredbeveridge Perfect Friday night as far as I’m concerned. I’m struggling to understand the measure though what is this scored on exactly? And is this automated or does someone manually audit this?

[Ryan @Ryan_Lord86]

@SUTONGIROTCIP @P_Kallioniemi I don’t think that’s true?

@WinskJustDoIt Acts 12:12-15 “Peter knocked at the outer entrance, and a servant named Rhoda came to answer the door. When she recognized Peter’s voice, she was so overjoyed she ran back without opening it and exclaimed, “Peter is at the door!”. Just left the guy hanging! Makes me chuckle.
