Poincaré explains basic probability theory to a French shyster

A little rounding error

I am shocked, shocked!

Massaging the data

Der die das, says Mr Rot.

AA computes the odds that "I think, therefore I am" is actually true

AA finally proves that A implies B, for all A and B

Hmmmm.... What would Herr Rott do?

Ignorance is The Word, On Planet Pepe

I'm shocked, shocked.

Smoothing the data

.. using Pepe's patented Pinko Smoothing Operator.
REGURGE so that Pepe can answer.
WARRIORS, come out and playeeaaay!

Taleb Bans Statistica da Puta

A mild guy: "The problem is much more complicated than it seems to the casual, mechanistic user who picked it up in graduate school. Statistics can fool you. In fact it is fooling your government right now. It can even bankrupt the system"

Who practices what he preaches: " Professor Bernanke indeed found plenty of economic explanations—what I call the narrative fallacy—with graphs, jargon, curves, the kind of facade-of-knowledge that you find in economics textbooks. (This is the kind of glib, snake-oil facade of knowledge—even more dangerous because of the mathematics—that made me, before accepting the new position in NYU's engineering department, verify that there was not a single economist in the building.)"

And cheap-ass AA never pays up.

A dream job for AA

The "Analytics Department" is looking for "predictive Modeling/Data Mining" specialists to join the campaign's "multi-disciplinary team of statisticians," which will use "predictive modeling" to anticipate the behavior of the electorate. "We will analyze millions of interactions a day, learning from terabytes of historical data, running thousands of experiments, to inform campaign strategy and critical decisions."

Adjusting the data, à la pink

Fo shame, Herr Rott, fo shame.

The Shocka in Chicaga

It's Statistica da Puta, alright, but since Planet Pepe loves that Puta when it's declaiming on hockey sticks, Wisconsin politics, and an Academia cleansed of Neokkkons, it's only fair when da Puta gives 'em a dose of syphilis.

"The results do not confirm the standard hypothesis. Siegel-Spaeth ideology scores that indicate "progressive" ideology were negatively correlated with the Stanford-Benet estimates. The Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient (-0.61) provides strong evidence of a negative relationship between progressive ideology and intelligence."

Tejas Guns Down Wisconsin

Clobberific,those Iowahawkanisms, and a beautiful example of "Simpson's Paradox"...not that the Pepean Thuggees would have a pig's chance in a tiger cage of wrapping their "Logik" around that simple notion.
REGURGE, because Iowahawk does.

Anti-Coanda Rulz!
