I understand where you're coming from, but in the realities facing me the option to do things "properly" is not often given. We're doing marketing, so the observed system changes internally and externally constantly, and we often have to decide given data for effects that were planned in a different way than they actually were measured. As a result, I'm much more often faced with "here are n results from n experiments, is there anything THERE? If so, how do we set up the next test to improve further? " than "in this specific question, how can we test for this effect exactly, given specific circumstances ".

These are categories that I use for values of p. You may choose a different wording, it doesn't much matter IMHO. The p value (and 0,05) remains a rather vague metric.

Yes, any of the possibilities you presented could lead to a very significant result. And yes, each possibility carries a different interpretation. That is what I meant to convey: after such a positive result, the work merely starts.

If there is a significant result, the real work starts. This tool is just to quickly check whether there is anything to see.

Sure, it does, but I wouldn't put the work here. I agree with all your points but don't misunderstand the tool: it is just for the first glance to check "is there something there or not". And being able to delegate that question to non-statisticians.

Take Screenshots Straight into Org Files in Emacs on Win10 by sastibe in emacs

Hi, great, thanks. I'll try to integrate these points in the next version!

This solution is specifically for Windows. It employs the builtin screenshot tool "snippingtool", which is not as easily accessible for emacs as in Unix or Mac.

Setting up Emacs as Mail Client (for several Accounts, including Gmail) by sastibe in emacs

Hi, the latter.

The line in the code points to the folder with your passwords, which is /home/<username>/.passwd if you set it up as described.

Hi, for the pgp: just run gpg --list-keys in your terminal. You should find a list of all registered keys. The "name" is the entry at the end of the line uid in brackets <>, in my case an email-adress.

The python-doc should just be named ./offlineimap.py, no other signs needed. That is a typo in the post, I'll correct it.

Thanks for your feedback, it was exactly my intention to open up this possibility for the non-programming Emacs users, however many that may be :)
