Can we teach people that averages are almost never what you care about and instead we should always report on and look at full distributions, but through memes?
Maybe I need Squidward memes
Are you a zork fan?
Think part of the issue is the casual use of the word “average” really means “what I normally experience on a given day”. So in casual conversation it is talking about something akin to the middle of a distribution curve. It gets lost in translation due to the same word being used in two different ways
I think average just means “normative” to most people.
I’m following NCD so that I don’t need to read any other news. It’s a huge time save
It gets bad when they predict the news
Soon you’ll arrive at the next stage, reading other news so you can make better NCD memes
That’s terminal right?
no, the end phase is causing the news so you can make better NCD memes
Thanks. Luckily I just eat 3 spiders a day
This reads like “task failed successfully”
All shared ideas are memes
I found out about both Henry Kissinger’s and Toby Keith’s deaths through memes. I don’t think memes Georg should be a statistical anomaly.
Learning about Henry Kissinger via a meme is surprising to say the least.
Also wtf Toby Keith died?
