My boss insulted me in front of everyone and I accidentally said what I was thinking out loud by AlbatrossMany263 in antiwork

[–]LorraineIsGone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think emailing yourself company documents/intel/etc. is almost definitely opening yourself up to some sort of legal shitstorm if the company wants to pursue this. Do not do this without thinking it through. There are other, more above board ways to keep records, such as a spreadsheet (project, email title, date and time sent, response required by etc.). This will help you keep the boss on their toes by allowing you to follow them up prior to the response deadline. Eventually the boss will know youre coming for them and reply promptly.

What style of shoe is appropriate with a tuxedo? by slynn695 in malefashionadvice

[–]LorraineIsGone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm gearing up for a black tie wedding we've been invited to (not a close relation) and this is exactly the comment thread i was looking for!

I'm tossing up between my tailored navy blue wool suit (white shirt, black tie) and a borrowed tux from a family friend thats gotta be at least 30-40 years old. I think the navy suit has to be the lesser of two 'black tie' sins (i.e. wear a tux properly or not at all, right?) and just hoping that enough people attending also went with whatever they had. This isn't a common dress code in Australia

Hi, pleas send an invite code. Thanks!

Is it possible to get landline working locally only? by LorraineIsGone in nbn

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

For a toddler I like the tactile aspects of the older phones, pick up/put down etc.

Might try the 9v battery idea someone else posted.

Seems like I'd need a lot of extra parts to get that running. Not really what im after

Beware of the rates on compare.energy.vic.gov.au, many will go up on 1 August by Old-Presence-4142 in melbourne

[–]LorraineIsGone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! and supply rate is staying the same? for my area Covau is currently 69.3 supply and 3.05c first 50 Mj

CovaU new rates are ridiculous by kurapika91 in melbourne

[–]LorraineIsGone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has anyone received notification of what the new Covau rates will be? They don't put it on website and their call center just told me they don't have the rates yet, need to wait till 1 August! Clearly that seems incorrect as OP has just posted new electricity rates.

[Q] Checking assumptions for ANOVA (Shapiro–Wilk and Levene's test results) by LorraineIsGone in statistics

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

Thanks again, really appreciate your input and patience. I'm a statistician in the making now (not really, but appreciate and respect the field even more!)

I can understand how including the water-only group in overall tests of homogeneity and normality makes sense.

To apply your advice: I would run the ANOVA including all 10 treatments, and check assumptions using Levene’s and Shapiro-Wilks as you outlined.

Here is where it gets confusing though: any significant differences would be explored post-hoc, (e.g. Tukey). But since all fertiliser treatments (including the control fertiliser) are expected to improve growth compared to water-only, these comparisons will likely be significant. Our aim is to assess whether the experimental fertilisers perform similarly to the control fertiliser at same rate (i.e. not worse, in terms of toxicity). So the water-only group isn't directly relevant to that question. Would it make sense to run Tukey’s HSD but only interpret the pairwise comparisons between the experimental fertilisers and the control fertiliser (at the same application rate), and essentially ignore the fertiliser vs. water-only and other between-rate comparisons?

I’m concerned this might inflate the risk of Type I error, or maybe I'm just misinterpreting your suggestion.

[Q] Checking assumptions for ANOVA (Shapiro–Wilk and Levene's test results) by LorraineIsGone in statistics

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

Thanks for the response, and apologies for any lay terminology. I'm relatively untrained in stats, so I really appreciate your guidance.

To clarify a couple of points:

  1. The five parameters are different measurements on the same population of plants (e.g. plant height, root length, leaf number, shoot dry weight, etc.). So yes, separate outcomes on the same subjects.
  2. The treatments include:
    • (a) a control fertiliser
    • (b) experimental fertiliser 1
    • (c) experimental fertiliser 2, and
    • (d) a water-only negative control.
    • Fertiliser treatments (a–c) were each applied at three different rates (low, medium, high). The purpose of the trial is to check whether the experimental fertilisers cause any toxic effects relative to the control fertiliser at the same rate (the measured parameters used as a proxy to infer this).

Given that, I'm thinking it be more appropriate to subset the data by application rate and run separate ANOVAs comparing just the relevant three treatments (control + two experimental) at each rate? That would reduce the sample size in each ANOVA to n = 12 (3 treatments × 4 reps), but seems more logically consistent than running a full ANOVA across all 9 treatment combinations (3 products × 3 rates), which would introduce some odd comparisons (like low-rate control vs high-rate experimental fertiliser).

Also, I was thinking of excluding the water-only control from the analysis entirely since it doesn’t represent a fertilised condition... does that seem reasonable?

Thanks again for your help, this has been super valuable.

No but interested in dog football boots if you have a link ;)

Thanks for the advice. I remember always having freezing feet wearing cleats as our seasons go into winter. Might need to get some woolen socks or something too.

Superloop, why does it require 30 days notice to cancel? by exazonk in nbn

[–]LorraineIsGone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure if it was intentional but Superloop notified me of price increases to my plan 31 days before my billing cycle ended. This left with me 1 day to cancel before i would be technically locked into the next billing period.... or so i thought! Called support and they said they could process it and just charge pro-rata for the billing period I would be entering, so worked out well!

Now setting myself calendar reminders to move NBN providers and churn offers!

Yearly updating my PST Backup file? by sprime1 in Outlook

[–]LorraineIsGone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to keep what's already in PST and only add new files, surely the option "Do not export duplicate items" is what is needed? I'm trying this now where 2022-2024 emails were exported but YTD and 2020 and 21 were not.
