That man's name, Christopher Columbus

The label usually says total surface area in the package. The stores near me break the price down to cost per unit of area, as well. This really untangles the 'how much should I pay for a quadrahedroll vs a dodecca butt sphere" worth of paper?

I'm going to say that scientific advancement in the past few hundred years has been a generally bad thing. It has made many peoples' lives better but it has caused a human population explosion and is rapidly destroying the environment. I guess future generations will see how this all pans out but I wonder if 1950-2100 will have been the golden era of human civilization.

My guess is that men would be much more roughly treated by the ice gestapo. Its much more socially acceptable to assault a man than a woman.

Would you mark this as nsfw, please? Her ports are all showing!

There's certainly a lot to discuss, relative to experimental design and ethics. Peer review and good design hopefully minimize the clearly undesirable scenarios you describe as well as other subtle sources of error.

I was really just trying to explain what we're looking at on op's graph.

My limited knowledge on this subject: The z-score is how many standard deviations you are from the mean.

In statistical analysis, things are often evaluated against a p (probability) of 0.05 (or 5%), which also corresponds to a z-score of 1.96 (or roughly 2).

So, when you're looking at your data, things with a z score >2 or <2 would correspond to findings that are "statistically significant," in that you're at least 95% sure that your findings aren't due to random chance.

As others here have pointed out, z-scores closer to 0 would correspond to findings where they couldn't be confident that whatever was being tested was any different than the control, akin to a boring paper which wouldn't be published. "We tried some stuff but idk, didn't seem to make a difference." But it could also make for an interesting paper, "We tried putting healing crystals above cancer patients but it didn't seem to make any difference."

Mamdani, you have such potential. Please don't fuck it up.

I remember hearing years ago how the M1 Abrams was a battlefield domination machine that could only be killed by another M1. That was clearly propaganda. Those overweight, overpriced pieces of shit got lit the fuck up after being shipped to Ukraine.

I like mint a lot. I found the transition from windows to be pretty straightforward. I've been giving Debian a shot on a separate computer, with a few different desktop environments. For me, mint with cinnamon has really been the more trouble-free, more familiar experience.

Fucking Gestapo cunts.

Here's hoping a democratic socialist turns out to be more progressive than your standard "not actually liberal" democrat.
