DaveE replied to the thread Studying Correlating IQ and STEM performance.How would you know? You never see the counterfactual. Maybe one of your neighbors is a genius but is lazy and content. I've worked... -
DaveE reacted to Andy Resnick's post in the thread Graduate Position vs momentum measurement with
Like.
I guess it depends on what information you hope to obtain- a point detector does not cover all positions, but then your location... -

Informative.
My guess is that the OP is getting at something along the lines of the analysis of this paper (discussed further by one of the authors... -
DaveE replied to the thread Studying Correlating IQ and STEM performance.I suspect it's a disconnect between what the physics community thinks "correlation" actually means versus the general public. It's not...

DaveE reacted to Laroxe's post in the thread Tick-borne diseases - recent increases in cases with Like.
I really wish that people would stop trying to link the spread of vector born diseases to changing temperatures. I have yet to see any...
