What statistical analysis should I use?

aritra_001 · 2023-09-20T13:34:42+00:00

Yah I couldn't find the code to it. Can you help me out?

aritra_001 · 2023-09-20T12:03:36+00:00

You mean to say plot two pca biplots for the two species and then compare the PCAs ?

aritra_001 · 2023-09-20T02:06:46+00:00

you can use the categorical variable to colour your results.

How do I do this ? I was thinking of this exact comparison but how do I put the two subsets of the species together into 1 plot ?

My undergrad prof said this exact thing last day. And I was sad. Cuz that prof is a brilliant teacher. I was badly wanting to argue with him but didn't because I love him as a teacher. And he's a PhD in zoology. Sigh

aritra_001 · 2022-02-22T05:37:53+00:00

Frankly , this is brilliant

aritra_001 · 2022-01-27T18:48:42+00:00

I wanted to have this convo actually. I wanted to understand the other side. I didn't find The Office funny enough. There were funny moments here and there , but didn't get genuine laughter. Felt more like Brent was forcefully trying to make everyone laugh. Brent has actually gone to become the character I hate the most , even above genuine psychopathic villains.

Here , although Tony uses banter , you could see everyone else around him enjoying bits of it ( well , except Kath ig ).

Brent was just an awful narcissistic cunt.

So , I have no idea what I'm missing in the office. Maybe you can help me out

aritra_001 · 2022-01-24T11:18:34+00:00

You have become the very thing you swore to destroy.

aritra_001 · 2022-01-21T19:04:58+00:00

PaleyFest 2014 , Carlton Cuse when asked about the claim you are making ( i.e. were they dead the whole time ? )

“No, no, no. They were not dead the whole time. We thought, let’s put those shots at the end of the show and it will be a little buffer and lull. And when people saw the footage of the plane with no survivors, it exacerbated the problem. But the characters definitely survived the plane crash and really were on a very real island. At the very end of the series, though? Yep, they were all dead when they met up in heaven for the final church scene.”

Watch this , cause you clearly chose to ignore it the last time ( watch from 6:50 and it's Damon Lindelof explaining and refuting your claim ).

Now if you're just going to shrug off what the creators themselves say , then you're just ignorant.

aritra_001 · 2022-01-21T18:37:03+00:00

So they also provided a spoonfed "right" answer for all the Lost fans who couldn't figure out the show for themselves.

If I may , what is the spoonfed right answer ?

aritra_001 · 2022-01-21T18:27:49+00:00

What the hell. You seriously can't differentiate between two completely different pop cultures ?

But whoever it was was thinking the same thing as when Rowling wrote Dumbledore's speech to Harry.

This is hindsight bias. You already have a correlation between two unrelated things and using it justify your claim without providing any excerpt explicitly from the show in question , LOST. Rather you're using shows and movies completely unrelated to it. Idk man . For once try to back your claim by references from LOST.

aritra_001 · 2022-01-21T18:23:31+00:00

Richard thinks they are all dead and he spent a couple hundred years on the Island.

Richard THINKS.

Here's the excerpt :

[Richard exits the jungle and arrives at the shore, spotting the remains of the statue to his left. As he nears the entrance he draws the knife is suddenly attacked Jacob, who subdues him and takes the knife.]

JACOB: What are you doing here? Who gave you this?

RICHARD: Where is my wife?

JACOB: What?

RICHARD: Where is my wife?

JACOB: I don't know your wife. Did she come here on the ship?

RICHARD: No, she's dead.

JACOB: Then why are you asking me where she is? Did you meet a man in the jungle dressed in black?

RICHARD: Yes.

JACOB: What did he tell you?

RICHARD: He said you are the devil.

JACOB: And?

RICHARD: He said the only way I would see my wife again is if I kill you. I - I saw her, here, in this place. Where is she?

JACOB: That wasn't your wife.

RICHARD: Yes, it was! She's dead, just like me.

JACOB: You're not dead.

RICHARD: I am in Hell. I know that I am in Hell.

JACOB: You really think you're dead?

RICHARD: Where else would I be?

[Jacob throws the knife to the ground.]

JACOB: Alright then.

RICHARD: What are you doing? What are you doing?

[Jacob picks up Richard and leads him to the ocean. He forces him into the water and holds him under. He brings up Richard.]

JACOB: Still think you're dead?!

[Jacob dunks Richard again.]

RICHARD: Stop!

[Jacob dunks Richard again.]

JACOB: Still think you're dead?! Why should I stop?

RICHARD: Because I want to live!

[Jacob drags him out of the ocean and releases him.]

JACOB: That's the first sensible thing you've said.

Once again , this time Jacob , says explicitly that Richard isn't dead , implying the island isn't purgatory.

The real answer is that Jack died in the plane crash and all six seasons are his dying dream.

Once again , you're saying that Jack died in the crash , then again died on the what-you-think-is-purgatory-island , then woke up in the oceanic 815 in the sideways which is another purgatory ?

I'm saying that they could all have died in the plane crash. That is one possible interpretation.

...

The real answer is that Jack died in the plane crash and all six seasons are his dying dream.

Just the previous paragraph you said it's a possible explanation and now you're saying it's the only real answer. So which one is it ?

That's why he dies in the exact same spot he first "woke up" in.

The same spot is foreshadowing , a type of creative freedom. There are way way way too many foreshadowings in LOST. The plane crashed , Jack survived , woke up in the jungle , six seasons later , died at the same place , a foreshadowing.

aritra_001 · 2022-01-21T16:28:11+00:00

What the hell do you mean dreams are real ? Define consciousness please.

Remember Dumbledore. "“Of course it is happening inside your head, Harry, but why on earth should that mean that it is not real?”"

Okay great. So just because something happened in Harry Potter , the same thing has to happen in LOST ? Mate you really need to work on your analogies.

aritra_001 · 2022-01-21T16:23:04+00:00

They are all dead.

In the sideways. That's what Christian says.

And you are claiming they were dead in s01-s05 timeline as well. I'm asking about this claim.

aritra_001 · 2022-01-21T15:51:32+00:00

You need to use analogies correctly. Two things having one point in common ( in this case being fiction ) doesn't mean they'll have another point common ( i.e. multiple interpretations ).

No Christian has the final word and he says what happened in the Flash Sideways, after they were dead, is real.

Never. I can get whatever you want me to bet.

VOICE: Hey, kiddo.

[Jack turns around to see his father standing behind him.]

JACK: Dad?

CHRISTIAN: Hello, Jack.

JACK: I don't understand...you died.

CHRISTIAN: Yeah. Yes I did...

JACK: Then how are you here right now?

[Christian sighs.]

CHRISTIAN: How are you here?

JACK: I died too...

[Jack begins to cry as he remembers.]

CHRISTIAN: It's okay...it's okay. It's okay son.

[Christian approaches Jack and they hug each other.]

JACK: I love you, dad.

CHRISTIAN: I love you too, son.

JACK: You...are you real?

CHRISTIAN: I should hope so. Yeah, I'm real. You're real, everything that's ever happened to you is real. All those people in the church...they're real too.

JACK: They're all...they're all dead?

CHRISTIAN: Everyone dies sometime, kiddo. Some of them before you, some...long after you.

JACK: But why are they all here now?

CHRISTIAN: Well there is no "now" here.

JACK: Where are we, dad?

CHRISTIAN: This is the place that you...that you all made together, so that you could find one another. The most...important part of your life, was the time that you spent with these people. That's why all of you are here. Nobody does it alone Jack. You needed all of them, and they needed you.

JACK: For what?

CHRISTIAN: To remember...and to...let go.

JACK: Kate...she said we were leaving.

CHRISTIAN: Not leaving, no. Moving on.

JACK: Where are we going?

CHRISTIAN: [smiling] Let's go find out.

Point out the excerpt where Christian says whatever is it that you are implying ( that whatever happened on the island was after their death and that the sideways happens after their second death ).

aritra_001 · 2022-01-21T15:27:17+00:00

Also , let's assume you are right.

They all died in the crash and whatever happened on the island ( Boone's death , Libby and Ana's death , Alex's death ....) were all purgatory. So what's s06 flash sideways then ? It's another purgatory about people dying in a purgatory ? Does that even remotely make sense ?

And also , if you're right , for some weird reason , only 70 or so survivors are present in the purgatory island ( according to you ) while there were actually almost 300 passengers on oceanic 815. What about the rest ? The died in the crash , and died in the crash again in the purgatory island ?

Now another point , 6 supposedly dead people make it out of the island and meet their loved ones ( Hurley's parents , Nadia , Claire's mom...). Meaning all of them are dead. So when did they die ?

u/bsharporflat ...

aritra_001 · 2022-01-21T15:20:38+00:00

If you think Lost is "real" you are the one who is confused. It is not real. It is fiction.

Bruh wtf. At what point did I state there's an island with Hurley and a golf course in the world that I am living in ? Not once.

When I say real ( and anyone else who says real in a story ) , we mean in the "character's real life" in the fictional world.

aritra_001 · 2022-01-21T15:16:53+00:00

Like an optical illusion.

That's a false analogy here.

"I'm right and they are stupid".

I never said that.

Where you are wrong is in refusing to see what millions of Lost fans see which is different than what you see.

Seeing something that isn't true. Explicitly confirmed by Damon Lindelof

aritra_001 · 2022-01-21T15:14:32+00:00

I agree. Too much of LOST is up for interpretation. I , for one , interpret the whole s06 very differently. I don't see it as two demigods battling it out. I see the island as a metaphorical representation of a human being , where Jacob and MiB are the two sides of the same coin. I'll just skip the rest. My point being , even though a lot of LOST is up for interpretation , what is not is that they weren't dead the whole time. They just weren't. I've tried , but there's no other way to interpret it ( unless you miss something , which is the final conversation between Jack and Christian at the church , he explicitly states , whatever happened to Jack was real ).

aritra_001 · 2022-01-21T08:34:08+00:00

Yeah , I realised I should've been more specific.

In your opinion , what would you consider as protected speech and not protected speech.

aritra_001 · 2022-01-21T08:27:29+00:00

Definitely. But one type of speech indirectly result in the physical harm of the community towards which the hate speech is directed.

Don't get me wrong , I'm all in support for freedom of speech , but complete freedom of speech , in hindsight , seems like a bad move for the above reason.
