    But in the end, it doesn't even matter

    I don't have a point. But even if I do, why should I reply if in the end my response will not affect anything? Why does it matter if tell you whether I have a point or not?

    But in the end, it doesn't even matter

    in the grand scheme of things, our life is an imperceptible blip on the universe's timeline. we are insignificant, and we don't really matter. no matter how successful we are in life, or how our lives end, all our accomplishments will be erased during the heat death of the universe, along with...

    Uncovering the Mystery: Decoding a Unique Integer Sequence

    I believe I have created an integer sequence that is truly unique. I would appreciate it if someone could try to solve this. Here is the first 89 integers of this sequence...

    B Why don't guns kill the shooter?

    I assume it would if you replaced the plunger with the needle and pressed it. The same logic doesn't apply to a gun. So if I'm understanding this right, the reason a bullet is deadly is that it gains more kinetic energy from the explosion than the gun? Does this mean the smaller the bullet...

    Are there Limits to Human Understanding in Physics and Mathematics?

    do you think there are biological limits to our capacity to understand physics or mathematics?could it be that in the distant future, no scientific progress could be achieved using the human brain, and we have to depend on superhuman level ai to do the work for us?

    B When do marbles behave like a liquid in a beaker?

    If we place a cork in a beaker then filled the beaker with normal-sized marbles, the cork will remain stationary at the bottom of the beaker. However, if we continuously decrease the size of the marble, at a certain point, the marbles will behave like a liquid and the cork will rise to the top...

    I Is this statistically significant?

    No idea, but I will investigate this. My initial idea was not to find a way to outperform a portfolio that is long bitcoin, but rather to confirm whether changes in search are predictive of future prices. If correlation can be proven, then we can discuss all sorts of statistical arbitrages and...

    I Is this statistically significant?

    Seems to have zero correlation to me. X-axis = 1W bitcoin price change, Y-axis = future 1W search term change

    I Is this statistically significant?

    Got a pretty decent linear correlation using your suggestion. Any thoughts on this?

    I Is this statistically significant?

    Thanks, both comments are very insightful. It is 4AM here, I will do both of your suggestions tomorrow.

    I Is this statistically significant?

    I've already tried incrementally increasing/decreasing both lower and upper threshold by 0.5 standard deviations starting from the mean, calculated the R-squared value, and plotted the results as seen in post #6 and #8.

    I Is this statistically significant?

    Exactly my question. Is there a way to mathematically prove this? Here is what I see (but we all see patterns even from randomness):

    I Is this statistically significant?

    I've used all the data with my method but not sure if that's indicative of anything. Are there any other ways to prove/disprove this hypothesis?
  14. B

    I Is this statistically significant?

    I went ahead and did it. Got a pretty decent correlation and an R-squared of 0.701.
