@azetice ...the PPM is hovering at 4-6 points around the 12th place line. Multiple that by 5 events, and 20-30 is a good estimate for the bar to make finals
@azetice ..as a model that assumes uniform distribution of results across all teams participating in an event. We know that most of the points are always sucked up by 3-4 teams, which would mean the bar to make finals is much lower. You can already see that from your table...
@JGotaskie@chrisbriem@OglebayResort ... no accounting for how much the county was spending on in-kind support, made life absolute hell for the neighbors for a full month, damage to the trees in mounting the lights.
@JGotaskie@chrisbriem@OglebayResort We moved to FCA right as it was ending, and had also heard that "sponsors dropped it", but she suggested that the Friends org actually wanted it gone. Gist seemed to be: netted little for charity relative to production costs, lots of handling of cash that wasn't easy to secure..
@MikeIsaac woman next to me at a show was facetiming her daughters and had the volume on... crazy how discordant and distracting their electronic screams were even in a loud, sold out theater
@BCat415@chrisbriem It's one of the few municipalities in the Fox Chapel school district with large, nice apartment/condo complexes, popular among immigrant families working at CMU, Pitt, UPMC for a few years and not interested in buying a house (and an easy commute)
@readmynewslettr@Johnny5pointOH Your articles are often copied verbatim from companies' press releases. They may have just copied from the same source as you.
@JimmyMiller_PB@robnunnery Thanks, that makes sense & will be less churn than continual redrafts. But it doesn't take many trades/drops for a 4 person team to feel very different. Curious to see how it all plays out!
Very excited to announce that registration for the 4th #DataMishapsNight on 3/7 is open! ๐
We've also opened our call for speakers to submit their stories of data misadventures, and would love to hear your story.
Registration, speaker app, and more:
