Tapping the sign:
INTERPRETING A REGRESSION A common mistake is failing to notice when the best linear predictor cannot be credibly interpreted as the causal relationship A regression of height on weight answers questions like: Bob weighs 200 pounds. What's your best guess for his height? It is useless for questions like: If Bob went on a diet and lost 20 pounds, how much less would his height be?

Die Union scheint dazugelernt zu haben: Der Tag, an dem der AfD-Shitstorm einfach verwehte
Monatelang trieb die rechte Empörungsindustrie die demokratischen Parteien vor sich her. Nun hat sich erstmals gezeigt, dass ihr Einfluss begrenzt ist. Das macht Hoffnung.

Julia Klöckner sieht die Frage der Meinungsfreiheit als das nächste bestimmende Thema nach Flüchtlingskrise und Corona.
Sie sag, taz und Nius unterschieden sich “in Methodik nicht so sehr” (was ich für falsch halte), in der Demokratie sei es Pflicht, beide zu ertragen.

I'm probably just ignorant, but the more I think about it, the _less_ of a difference I see between an R&R and a list of "conditions for acceptance"...
pengzell.bsky.social Per Engzell @pengzell.bsky.social · Jul 30
Getting an "accept with discouragement" decision was always on my bucket list.... guess I've made it
Decision letter reads "This was a borderline case, where the condition for acceptance is not as clearcut as we like, and we often opt for rejection (because we do not do R&Rs). We nonetheless felt the authors should be able to successfully execute each of action items below."
