British government, still shit after 250 odd years.

Which means we can write the perfectly correct sentence:

Yous use ewes' yews.

To the tune of Disney Beaty and Beast

Trick as old as time,
Error all too clear,
Measure each group twice,
Claiming truth from lies,
Sig p-values appear.

Boston t-test party?

If it's not an omnishambles, there's still hope.

Better to be lucky than good (looking).

Hello from UK. MSc in Applied Stats, no PhD, 27 years at University of Aberdeen, no barrier to progression career-wise. Caveat, all my stats colleagues have PhDs except immediate post-grads. Perhaps they keep me around as a novelty. Happy to bore you with tales from journey without PhD.

Amen to that.

Hard for like for sending me back to the 80s playing Space Invaders 2 at Inverness La Scala cinema at 10p a go. Shit, I am getting old.

My tuppence: Not only is it allowable, it is desirable when appropriate. But I'd replace negative with challenge, acknowledge, and discount anything not useful (respectfully) when required. Otherwise our PPI colleagues are infallible.

I will email you about this later. Much later.

Disappointed not to see your correct new title "Unprincipled Statistician".

Disgusted etc.

Not even an open coffin

Standard amateur fitba (soccer) sledge might work here: If you want my shirt just ask, you can have it after the game.

That happens. Sometimes.

Is that Latin for "mess about find out"?

excuse the "it's" of course.

you seem to be saying that if we could work out when

θ(t)=θ_0 cos(2π/T)t)

Where: θ(t) = angular displacement at time 𝑡
θ_0 = amplitude
T = period of the pendulum

was at it's maximum, then look at time t we'd always get a good rank...

Wait, I had to check the date, this was published BEFORE CheatGPT was on the go? Well there we are, random word salad has always been a thing.
