The American Media Should Not Be Trusted
Orlando Buffalo replied to SCBills's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Where did the 3:1 number come from? I am honestly trying to figure that part out, I said 10:1 based on the overall numbers and you called me an idiot, where did the 3:1 come from? -

What evidence would convince you he did something wrong? We have pictures of him doing drugs, videos with prostitutes, and emails and texts explicitly demanding bribes, what more would make you think he deserves to be in jail. -

Do you mean this line? "Across the 854 urban areas in Europe, we estimated an annual excess of 203 620 (empirical 95% CI 180 882–224 613) deaths attributed to cold and 20 173 (17 261–22 934) attributed to heat" which is more than 10:1 ratio? Or is there something else? Seriously where did you get 3:1? I had assumed you meant the tables inside the report since NOTHING shows a 3:1 ratio as you claimed. -

Are the numbers the same on the abstract as the table? I am doing this on my phone and the columns don't stay lined up in the abstract. If the abstract has different numbers then the table then the table is a straight lie, if they are the same then I am correct. -
So since it was not FORMAL, we can't mock you for being a hypocrite? Ok please hold yourself to that standard, or really any standard of decency

Hollywood is collapsing

I generally like Ben but this is truly sad on his part. This is not a movie trying to sell a lifestyle or anything, it is simply made to laugh at the absurdity of it all. As I write this my wife and 13 year old daughter are going to see it this afternoon so I might have more to report later. -

We already discussed that, but that would require intent and I can't prove that. I am not sure what his point is at this time besides pretending that a table has a purpose beyond helping people look at data quickly. -

I am not digging- the cold deaths in Croatia is listed at more than 150 the hot deaths is less than 40, how the hell is that not greater than 3:1? And that is the smallest ratio. Ireland is more than 150 for cold and looks like 3 for hot, how are you getting a 3:1 ratio overall? -

Are you telling me the chart is not of the numbers from the report? What are the numbers on the chart from? Your insulting me and then telling me that the charts and raw numbers are not the same. -

Are we looking at the same table? The closest ratio is Croatia and they are still above 3:1(less than 40 to more than 150) Seriously where are you pulling your numbers from? -
DeSantis For President in 2024?

Actually Joe did run the best campaign in history. He knew the media would lie for him in an entirely unethical way and he allowed it to happen so he could win. Why give your political enemies something to run with when doing nothing is the winning strategy? -

The main premise was what kills people more as a main factor, hot or cold? The final tally was more than 10:1 cold killed more but the graph was made to look like the numbers were kinda similar. -

We won't agree because we are truly arguing two different things. You are arguing that the data was accurate, which is true. I am showing you that this kind of presentation is improper. If I accept that no malfeasance was intentional then the next question is what is the purpose of the table at all? It is beyond useless, simply show the raw numbers instead of using the bars. The table is at very best poorly done to the point that it is worthless in that context, since a table is supposed to make it easier to compare not more difficult. -

What is sad with your argument is that one of the topics we discuss in stats with students is all the ways that people can present real data while clearly trying to mislead, and one of big ones is messing with the scale on two separate graphs with same information. But I found another graph that supports your belief. -

Orlando Buffalo replied to SCBills's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
The reason to change the scale on each graph to highlight the differences between the countries? That is unrelated to the scale but you did give me a reason. -

https://afroamfl.org/task-force-members/ This is the task force that wanted, and got the standard about slaves through. Thompson used to be my state rep and I have met her. She is a HUGE liberal and once again shows the patheticness of those who object. -

Two very related things because perhaps you are simply unaware of the situation: that video was removed within one hour of being put up, maybe the staffer who linked to it did not know what it meant. Secondly the only reason I know that it was ever a Nazi sign is that it is all over the Ukraine Army guys, so I less you are truly up on the Ukraine Army it is unlikely you would recognize it. -

The article lied and said that people were leaving Florida as fast as they were coming which is not just untrue, but stupid. My "neighborhood" of which I was one of the first 50 in 2003 is going to hit 50k in a few months. The comparison you are making is basically stating that their lie is ok since this unrelated statement is correct. -

Yes my car was 94 degrees when I got back into at noon. As for the study if my students made a table with two separate scales when comparing the same concept I would make them redo it properly. But in this case the person creating the table did it with intention. So please tell me what an innocent intention could be for changing the scale on each side? -

This is not my quote but I feel it is well said "If you are able to read it and conclude that the single reference to slaves developing skills … is indicative of the narrative direction of the course, rather than a tiny (and correct) part of it, then you are beyond saving and you deserve to live your life as an ignoramus" -
Masking at the begining I am not arguing with since it was novel. I am discussing at begining of 2021-2022 school year, by that point it was shown by all studies that masks were not effective and we knew from speech pathologists that it was hurting kids greatly. The areas that required children to get vaccinated despite it being known that it would not being a benefit to the kids themselves should all be ashamed of themselves. I have an 18 year old and a 13 year old and the difference between our life and their northern cousins life for 2 years was astonishing considering the threat to the kids was less than from a flu, and as you stated by Sept 2021 we knew kids were not a threat to adults by simply being the same room with them. Personally I was back in the classroom in August 2020 and we were hyper vigilant about touching or being too close to each other but otherwise school went like normal. It was clear an obvious by January of 2021 it could be done but so many states did not do what should have been done.

Your comment was that the topic was too jaw droppingly stupid to discuss despite being factually accurate. You were so busy being political that you were extremely insulting to anyone who could think was a good idea. Your opinion appears to have changed when the person presenting it was changed to different race. I will ask directly, do you still think the standard is stupid? -

Your statement now is even funnier since we have learned that a panel of black scholars had worked to get this standard added to the curriculum. Your comment that these black scholars are "jaw-droppingly stupid" might be the most racist thing on this board since you believe that these facts are not worthy of your time and how dare they insult you. https://www.google.com/amp/s/nypost.com/2023/07/24/cnn-commentator-rips-kamala-harris-over-claim-about-fla-slavery-curriculum/amp/ -
I honestly had missed InBev owned Labatts. I have over time realized that InBev buys a good brand, Goose Island, Kona, the list is pretty long, maintains quality for about 2 years and then allows the product to settle towards the norm. Very few of their beers are anything special anymore, which makes not buying them very easy. Though our local brews now cost $12 for a six pack at the store for their good stuff.
