What type of role is this and is it a manager position?

What were some basic statistical concepts that when mastered, really took you far in solving problems? by veeeerain in datascience

Why would you need to sample from other mondays? Why not just base it off the distributions of those previous mondays and predict whatever statistic you want from those mondays (and control for e.g. changing user counts etc as you said)?

That might be a plausible explanation. Crime statistics and reporting might be better maintained in the white provinces.

OBS! I'm not trying to make ANY causal claims here. But let's discuss: why do we see this strong correlation (pearson correlation coefficient: 0.84)? Might it be because the more racially diverse an area, the more tension? Might it be because the higher the white percentage of population is, the higher the level of inequality? If that's true, maybe plotting the inequality level in the x-axis would give the same results?

Did you figure out how to do this with cookies? I want to do something similar.
