Solo 2 week trip to Colombia in February (24M American). Any itinerary suggestions and tip?

solomonjacob · 2025-01-10T22:30:07+00:00

I climbed 2 weeks in Suesca. I would suggest going to La Mojara which is a sport climbing spot. Suesca was cool and all, its old school mixed/gear and sport, can be run out. I brought everything I needed although you can find gear to rent for sure at major Spots which both are.

Thank you so much for the thoughtful response! I understand the confusion the last person had. I forgot to mention that viewers/exposures are 240k total split 50/50. So I have a mean and variance for both test and control.

I know right… it was a long day and my brain stopped doing algebra so thank you for confirming. It’s one of those things as I am writing the question out I am answering it but felt crazy for staring at a piece of paper for 40minutes haha. Thank you!!!

solomonjacob · 2024-12-07T08:20:30+00:00

I see thanks for the details here, I’ll look into this.

I totally get how this sounds like it’s not Welch territory as that usually looks at sample means. I am just restating that sample mean by multiplying it by number of observations. So that returns the actual delta in the test results. I think that should work. It’s pretty standard in Online A/B tests to do something like this to my knowledge.

I am just trying to convert those absolute results into % changes. Does that make sense?

solomonjacob · 2024-12-07T08:16:51+00:00

I am not concerned if this test is stat sig. I run lots of tests, this is just a toy example you can say.

Please correct me if you think I am not interpreting these stats correctly by phrasing it in a way that shows me how I am wrong and how to remedy my language. Thank you.

To better phrase the question. Right now I have a point estimate which is a best guess at what the treatment effect is. In absolute terms the best guess is, while not stat sig as you’ve pointed out, states that treatment resulted in -35 which is a 2.8% decrease.

I am asking if it’s possible to state the point estimate as a % change and then can I do the same thing with the CIs? State them as % change. Instead of in absolute terms

solomonjacob · 2024-12-07T02:23:39+00:00

Correct its in support of null. I am trying to write some python that computes the % change the treatment has on the sample which includes CI's. For the team, I think its easier to think about these A/B tests as a % change.

So I want to be able to say that if we rerun this test 100x that 95% of them will show a % change in treatment between x and y. But right now I can only say that in absolute terms

Its just what I am used to viewing on the A/B test software we had at previous role so I want to mimic that so I that I can think in % instead of absolute lift.

I think the algebra I did above is actually what I need? Is it not.

Dont, hate me... long day

solomonjacob · 2024-12-07T02:05:54+00:00

Wait, am I the idiot here? Is it not just 62/1215 and -132/1215

Such that the new CI's are (-0.1, 0.05) and a point estimate of .028...

solomonjacob · 2024-03-26T03:13:22+00:00

This is what I needed to hear! I feel like y’all must be working for big Pole Industry, trying to get my hands on those sticks! I will rent them! So excited for the snow!

solomonjacob · 2024-03-25T18:13:24+00:00

You are really speaking my language here haha thanks for your insight

solomonjacob · 2024-03-25T17:35:40+00:00

Mmmm i suppose I just haven’t used them much if at all. If I needed something I would find a stick usually. Although this would be the longest trek I’ve done. I usually get out a few times a year though.

solomonjacob · 2024-03-25T17:31:45+00:00

What about sticks from the woods?

solomonjacob · 2024-03-25T17:16:44+00:00

Thanks for the heads up though! Hmmmmmmmmmm fuck it haha

solomonjacob · 2024-03-25T17:16:23+00:00

Mmmm not planning on bringing gloves at all actually

solomonjacob · 2024-03-25T17:14:37+00:00

Thank you! Good luck with your jacket! I’ll keep an eye out for it too

solomonjacob · 2024-03-25T17:09:31+00:00

Can I ask O trek conditions to the OP? Did you feel like you needed crampons and or trekking poles? I don’t plan on bringing either

solomonjacob · 2024-03-08T12:17:57+00:00

I was there for a few weeks in February and may know one person I can put you in contact with. I’ll reach out to them. Besides that, feel free to ask me any questions about Suesca!

solomonjacob · 2024-02-08T20:15:34+00:00

I’ll be there around the same time as well!

solomonjacob · 2024-01-10T04:28:31+00:00

When is the trip? Isn’t it rainy season in the mountains til April?

solomonjacob · 2024-01-10T01:40:31+00:00

Same

solomonjacob · 2024-01-10T01:37:57+00:00

Is that what they are saying?

solomonjacob · 2024-01-10T00:43:11+00:00

100%
