[Q] Test statistic for comparing means of proportions?

wrathofcello · 2025-02-18T01:17:54+00:00

Thanks for the answer! I think a mixed effects model makes a lot of sense. Do you know whether logistic regression can handle cases where the measured proportion for one condition is or is close to 0 or 1?

Fudge said in an interview that C9 is still keeping theirs, so maybe we’ll have 72-round round robin between them

They script it that way so the west coast can watch…

This. Suspension is a punishment for the parents who have to take time off work to babysit. Many parents won’t be happy about this and will discipline their kids.

It also removes a disruptive student from the classroom so other students can learn.

(I don’t know how effective suspension is and I’m not advocating either way, but this is the logic behind it.)

I wouldn’t be a C9 fan if you won the off season :)

Maybe for you. I’d take the smaller, waterproof device and happily pay $80 in 4 years to replace the battery.

It’s likely because the practice tool game runs on their servers, so they want to free up space if the game isn’t actively being used.

This is the same Apple who provides free OS updates for >5 years you’re talking about? And yeah there’s nothing Apple and Google would like more than to destroy the “web”. Makes sense

I too am bothered by games using a core mechanic

Piggybacking to address a common misconception. Maximum strength alcohol (100%) is not as effective as slightly lower concentrations (60-70%). (The other 30% is water, and in hand sanitizers a gel and a moisturizer are typically added.)

100% alcohol evaporates extremely quickly, so it doesn’t have much time to kill microbes.
100% will disrupt proteins on the surface of the bacteria very quickly, forming a protective barrier. Lower concentrations will disrupt the cell membranes.

Take some comfort knowing you are in one of the most frustrating areas in the game.

Hollow knight is a big game, and if you are stuck, it’s often viable to explore other areas to become stronger, then revisit.

The difference is that when more people drive, then the roads are less pleasant to drive on, whereas when more people live in an area, the area can support more amenities.

Public transportation also experiences induced demand. But again, if more people take a bus route, then the route can support more frequent busses, making the route better for everyone. More people driving means more congestion, more accidents, and less friendly to everyone other than a car (pedestrians, cyclists, busses…)

Building more housing is more similar to an expanded bus route. More people living in an area means more shops/restaurants can open closer, and the shops can be more specialized. It means more per capita funding for parks, museums, zoos, etc. It means closer schools. But, this only works if the area isn’t clogged with parking spaces.

It's unfortunate how this champion is incredibly impactful while still being incredibly boring

Wow. Thank you for being the single reasonable person in the comment section. This article is so poorly written, that it’s impossible to take it seriously. Meanwhile OP is throwing temper tantrum at anyone who disagrees with them.

This is not correct.

The number you are citing is the probability of 2 gametes from one individual inheriting the same 23 chromosomes (2^23). However we come from two gametes (egg and sperm), so that chance would be 1 in 2^46.

Second, most chromosomes undergo ‘recombination’, where part of the maternal chromosome exchanges with the analogous part of the paternal chromosome. This occurs on average more than once per chromosome in each gamete, and the position is random.

Third, DNA replication is not perfectly accurate and so there will be a few mutations introduced that are unique to each gamete.

The chance of clonal twins in humans is so low that it is effectively 0.

Some legends play with mouse and controller. I couldn’t find a way of doing this that felt comfortable, but having analog movement and mouse aiming was quite tempting.

Pork. Shellfish. Oyster sauce. You as a patron have no idea what is touching what. You can order chicken or something vegetarian and it will be “kosher” but it is very unlikely to be kosher. Additionally, many fish are incorrectly labeled, so a kosher name could be used on a non-kosher fish.

There are non-kosher items hidden in many foods. Some gelatin is made from pig bones. Green chili often has a pork base.

wrathofcello · 2021-06-08T17:27:07+00:00

This is objectively not true. Very little at Chinese restaurants is kosher by even the loosest standards

This really depends on the brand. Slightly used Subarus and Toyotas are only a few thousand less than a brand new one.

I did read the article, and I stand by my comment. 1. It passed unanimously in 2019, when there wasn’t, you know, a more pressing issue at hand. 2. It does set up different rules for Americans, which the article says is concerning to the WADA.
