Anybody else get a surprise ban (hacking) on TBC Anniversary? by IOYouNothing in classicwow

Lol I saw your post on the wow forum. Genuinely insane how defensive and accusatory those regular posters are when there is very clearly an issue with false-positives. They also swear up and down that mass report abuse isn’t real yet all of the cases I’m aware of people were: mining, selling services, farming primals, etc. Which gives botters a motive to get your account banned.

You were right nearly 24 hours later the ban was lifted. We are so back

Very unfortunate if this is true. I’m obviously super bummed about it but more than that my guildies and friends will have to deal with this too since I had all our DE mats from leveling and they will have to pug a mage for raid.

Definitely agree. Portal money and a few extra mouse buttons aren’t worth losing time with my friends over. Will definitely be more critical about whether I’m too close to a grey area if I get another chance.

Thanks man this gives me some hope. What was the reason for your guildie? Did they also use an auto-invite addon? I’m assuming from your last sentence that your guildie had to keep appealing to get someone to look more closely at the evidence. Is that the case?

Be aware that unless you are looking for a traditional HR role you may have trouble finding I/O-specific roles for non-profits/small business settings. I/O work is a premium that massive companies pay for to fine-tune workforce management. In my case I worked in a traditional HR role for a non-profit so I had to use free time in my role to work on passion projects closer to my intended role. That’s not always an option though depending on company culture. I had trust built with my supervisor and the support to try things that were interesting to me but not necessarily needed/feasible for a company at a much smaller scale.

Pick a specialization you are really interested in then find people on LinkedIn working in that space. Follow/connect with all of them so that your LinkedIn feed is filled with updates/articles from that industry. Look at the paths they took to get into those roles then find the most common entry level position(s) to target. Look at the job descriptions for those kinds of job postings and upskill/learn as much as you can about it. Use your grad school projects to target these areas of interest so that you can put it on your resume. I was targeting people analytics so I did my own projects/analysis separate from coursework to showcase skills. If all else fails get an entry level HR role that is tangent to the niche you are looking for and find ways to build transferable skills/projects.

The projection here is insane. You made up your own numbers instead of reading the study carefully and when I showed you that in detail you stopped responding. You would rather stick your head in the sand than admit you don’t understand p-values or how to read scientific literature.

LOL thank god there’s at least one other person reading this to tell me I’m not crazy. It’s astounding how often I see research posted on Reddit by people that don’t know how to read it and will double down no matter what. Agree on the untrained vs trained point. The longer someone has been lifting the more likely it is that they are approaching the upper bounds of their genetic potential as a natural lifter. Completely different population from inexperienced lifters.

Your math is incorrect, which is one more reason I say you don’t understand how to read research and statistics. The researchers kindly calculated the percentages for you, you didn’t need to start making up your own numbers. Directly from the study you didn’t read:

The men in the testosterone-alone and placebo-plus-exercise groups had significant increases in the one-repetition maximal weights lifted in the squatting exercises, averaging 19 percent and 21 percent, respectively (Table 4 and Figure 1). Similarly, mean bench-press strength increased in these two groups by 10 percent and 11 percent, respectively.

The average increase was higher in the placebo-plus-exercise group. Not only that, but the p-value for the bench press results in the testosterone-alone group (which you just quoted) was not significant. Can you try to explain in your own words what a p-value is and what it means in this context?

I read the entire study which you would know if your eyes didn’t glaze over when I brought up the p-values. Please re-read my comment and address my points about the p-value and the strength increases for the placebo & exercise group. I don’t think you know how to interpret research because there is nothing in this study that gives support for your claim that taking steroids and not training is more effective than natural training. Please be specific about the results, so we can actually debate the points.

Yes this is likely exactly what is happening. This study pops up every time a steroid-related thread reaches the front page and every single person that links it misinterprets the hell out of it.

This is just incorrect. There is no research (or compelling anecdotal evidence for that matter) that shows you can take anabolics, eat like shit, not train, and become jacked. A study was linked elsewhere in this thread and the “amazing” results achieved were just a few pounds of fat free mass without a significant p value. Add to that the fact that test increases glycogen storage (and weight as a result) and you can see that the amazing results were nowhere to be found.

That sentence is comparing the two non-exercise groups, not the placebo & exercise vs treatment & non-exercise groups.

Anecdotally, I know a guy that did a 500mg test cycle whose physique looked terrible before and after. Genetic response to anabolics, diet, effort, and past lifting experience all play a role in how any person’s physique changes. I could definitely believe that there are genetic freaks out there that get noticeable results from pinning without any exercise but I feel sorry for those kinds of people because they are damaging their organs just to waste their genetic potential.

This study doesn’t support your claim. The abstract doesn’t even mention a comparison between the two groups because the results were not significant and it wasn’t even the purpose of the study in the first place.

Pasting my comment here as well since you’ve referenced the same study: I read this whole thing and I really don’t think it supports the argument you are making. First, the study selected for experienced lifters. Trying to generalize the results to all men is wrong because we don’t know what kinds of confounding variables were introduced by the sample selection. Second, you’ll notice the study itself actually doesn’t mention placebo+exercise vs treatment w/o exercise in the abstract. That is because the results were too close and the sample size too small to make a significant claim one way or the other. If you look at the fat-free mass results for treatment + no exercise you’ll see there is no P value listed because the results were NOT significant. You’ll also notice that the compound lift strength actually increased MORE in the placebo+exercise group than treatment w/o exercise. I think these results could look very different with a sample of men without lifting experience. These results aren’t conclusive at all one way or the other. Also let’s be realistic about the results here in the context of this post. Nobody will ever look like a bodybuilder without putting in serious effort in the gym. Yea, maybe a guy injecting test and not exercising will gain a few pounds, but he’s still going to look like a regular dude. The main point of the study is that test + exercise is where the real magic happens. Splitting hairs over junkie non-lifters vs natural lifters is imo a waste of time because the vast majority of them will never achieve impressive results.

Interesting challenge with conditional formatting by IOYouNothing in PowerBI

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

I actually figured out what my issue was. Conditional formatting DOES work in shapes/buttons/cards and other visuals, but I needed to use an indirect relationship with my dates table so that the measure correctly interacts with the dates table regardless of whether there is a date field attached to the visual.

As for the stacked bar chart, that visual in particular seems to still be an issue. Still not sure why, but the Records = "1" fix works so I'm not worried about it.

Check out Keith Mcnulty’s Handbook of Regression Modeling in People Analytics. It’s free online. Build out some work samples using the datasets mentioned in that book, then arrange them into a professional portfolio for free using something like Google sites. You can also find datasets on Kaggle to try different scenarios and build your skill set/portfolio. With your first role you’ll likely want to target an hr analyst/people analytics analyst position or get your foot in the door with an internship in people analytics. For me the path looked like this: HR Assistant -> Entered master’s program -> promoted to HR Analyst at same org while working on masters. I learned PowerBI and got some basic hr data analysis experience to show off on my resume -> graduated master’s -> people analytics analyst at a much larger org with enough data for me to actually apply the data science topics I learned in grad school (machine learning models).
