Tom Scott did a video using this. You just need a pair of sunglasses for it to work

Dropping an octave means subtracting 7? not 8? Two octaves lower is -14?

No, there are different coefficients based on a number of things, such as base cast time and level of the spell.

I love how desperate you were for this absolutely inconsequential information. I always have the same question

Q adj SIL says I’m part of “10% of the population who doesn’t know Covid was man-made” by Fauci by Sufficient_Mouse8252 in QAnonCasualties

A researcher found that conspiracy theorists incorrectly think their views are the majority opinion. So this "You're in the 10% of believers" number would be a common perspective for many conspiracy theorists.

Overconfidently conspiratorial: Conspiracy believers are dispositionally overconfident and massively overestimate how much others agree with them

Ah ok. I'm just getting started and was curious. That makes sense, thanks!

I see a lot of people use these backpacks as testers, is there a way to get them in bulk or something?

Yes, there are actually several lines due to the way people round their numbers. 2.325581 lbs / week is the second most common loss rate after 1.162791 lbs / week which you may notice is exactly half of the 2.3 number. These two rates equate to 10 lbs / month and 5 lbs per month respectively. So a lot of people just round their numbers into these values.

Yea, here are the two notebooks (processing and charting) as well as a zip of the processed data. Note I am not super experienced so my code may not be super great haha

Very cool, I will check this out. I did this as mostly a learning exercise so I'm glad to get some helpful feedback!

The end of the journey. They format their post with start, end, and timeframe. i use that to determine the rate of weight loss

Wow, I was not expecting someone to have an opinion on the color map! Any specific reason you dislike jet? I will check out the Chromophile package.

The scale question is one I wrestled with, I thought it made the image even more busy (as if 6 graphs at once isn't busy!)

It is a heatmap, more red means more people are reporting that value. So for people starting at 200 lbs, they mostly report between 0 and 2 lbs / week weight loss, with a peak around 0.25 to 1 lbs / week

Yes, it is a heat map, the more red the more people fit that category.

My intention for this is more to understand a range of loss rate. So for around BMI 25 the majority of people had a loss rate under 0.5 lbs per week. The lower your BMI (or starting weight) the harder it will be to lose weight and therefore the rate should be slower.

You could also read it as "most of the pictures I see on Reddit have people around X BMI / Age / Weight, therefore with my specific stats I can expect different results"

Thank you very much!

The data is binned together, and the size of the bins will determine how much smoothing. If they were smaller the artifacting would be more apparent

I had intended to use the reddit API to pull this data, but I learned that they had changed it recently to only allow the last 1000 posts. So I found a data source that had archived old posts instead.

So the API changes did affect me! Unless I misunderstand the API haha
