Showerthoughts

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Sample size could also be too low, no?

Possibly. We'll probably see eventually, either through a myriad of deaths, or a lawsuit with a lot of witnesses.

The second was MRSA/pneumonia. Take off the tinfoil hat.....for now anyways.

Fuck Boeing, but at least wait until another "suicide".

Also any 2 points make a straight line with an r^2 of 1.000000. You can't reliably determine anything with that.

n=2 is a terrible sample size

[–] BreadOven@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

As I said above, any 2 points make a perfect line with an r^2 of 1.0000.

You need AT LEAST 3 points haha. Hopefully no one in stats sees this comment.
