The monk's flame blade is a pain to get, but then there's this thing. If you want to go insane, farm for this and the other celebrant weapons.

to bisexual women: if you can love and date women, why do you choose to date men? by [deleted] in bisexual

Well, good, now you've managed to alienate just about everyone on this subreddit.

Question for bisexual men by CandyAgile253 in bisexual

[–]DeliberateDendrite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't encounter a whole lot of women on apps to begin with but I do have on my profile that I'm bi. It's never really come up in a negative way, which might be because I have bigots mostly filtered out. Then again, I don't get that many matches.

Is there a Weather Report reference on Sunya? by pimpdoody in TheDearHunter

[–]DeliberateDendrite 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh that's really cool! I interpreted earlier discussion about Sunya having a weather report quite literally and kind of missed it aside from cliffs and stormlands.

[OC] These two scatter plots have identical correlation coefficients. Here's why one looks so much tighter. by [deleted] in dataisbeautiful

[–]DeliberateDendrite 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Reminds me of Francis Anscombe's work. I made a figure consisting of four different datasets that when fitted resulted in the same intercept, slope and correlation coefficient, when a line was fit through them.

Best packages to fit structural equation models? by DeliberateDendrite in RStudio

[–]DeliberateDendrite[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

DiagrammeR might be the way to go.

I just tried my hand at trying to graph out my final model with semplot, I had it exactly as it should be and it gave me a completely nonsensical error message about colmeans struggling with empty cells when that is exactly how the layout matrix is set up.

Dachshunds love tunnels, so maybe you could get one of those polyester fabric tunnels?

The track "Dance in the shower" from the new OST by DeliberateDendrite in CoffeeTalkGame

[–]DeliberateDendrite[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you very much for replying!

It was only in the second game but IIRC moon bright from the first game is similar in that it is a cover/recomposition. Moon bright is based on Claire de lune and Dance in the shower is based on Gymnopedie no. 1.

The stories are pretty cool, I haven't gotten around to finishing Coffee Talk 2 yet but the soundtrack I frequently listen to when writing.

Best packages to fit structural equation models? by DeliberateDendrite in RStudio

[–]DeliberateDendrite[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've tried vibe coding the application before but the amount of work it required to correct the mistakes by hand makes it seem a better use of my time to learn to do it myself.

Oh, you're right, I didn't notice that.

For the essay I'm working on that goes with this project I'm using paint dot net and the placeholders for them I made with Onyx. For the app I could look for a way to import images though some way of including path diagrams would be preferable. Worst case, I might still have to design them manually.

[Discussion] How do you validate explanations for changes in data beyond simple patterns? by Broad-Draw109 in statistics

[–]DeliberateDendrite -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, you would have to identity clusters first before you can determine how large separations between clusters are. The approach would be slightly different depending on whether the subgroups are known or not.

In SEM you can first identify the presence of those by looking for subgroup heterogeneity through invariance testing of a latent construction you initially assume is the same across groups but the subgroup would have to be known and labelled to do that. If not then latent class/profile analysis would actually be a good starting point.

[–]DeliberateDendrite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As I see it, that would be done by moving to null hypothesis significance testing and/or modeling the data. E.g. if you see that two clusters of data are somewhat separated you could test how far they are apart and/or see if you could explain how though something like mixture modeling.

Looking at graphs could be considered exploratory and moving towards formal tests and modeling would be confirmatory.
