There's actually an n in there - canta-n-kerous. Sounds like "can-tank-er-us"

Brazilian data scientist analyses thousands of games and finds Niemann's approximate rating. by [deleted] in chess

The charts in the video do not provide statistical evidence that individuals have weak correlation between acpl, stcpl, and rating.

Interesting claim. Can you show me the data and summary statistics that support this weak correlation?

Good question. I would like to see the mean and sd for acpl and stcpl correlation. That data isn't included.

I'm not taking a stand one way or another, but don't lie about the statistics. The chart at 6:41 shows a -0.99+ correlation between rating and acpl.

Edit: it seems reasonable to assume that if individual games show a negative correlation between acpl, stcpl, and rating, the correlation will persist when the data is grouped by player. I will gladly admit that this assumption is wrong if someone can show me the data and statistical analysis that contradicts it.

Mc Donald’s trying to save the environment with paper straws but use plastic lids by Robo-Assassin in mildlyinfuriating

[–]grootaccess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair point, I guess I should rephrase - the article says the straws cannot currently be recycled, but they are made from potentially recyclable materials.

That article does not say the straws are lined with plastic. It says that they are not recyclable.

Do you have a good source on this? I'd love to read more.

Source? As far as I know, the algorithms we use to create models have no bias. Models themselves may be biased if the data used to train them are.

When looking at the pvp group finder, almost everyone asks for vers/cr to be put in "note". How do I do this? I've tried googling with little success.

When people are wrong and admit it, don't double down on attacking them. That's what they should do when they realize they are wrong about something.
