Oh god. Yeah, I've got one like that. His compliance is fine... When he actually eats. He went through a spate of refusing EVERYTHING for so long he made himself iller, and then immediately started wolfing everything after a visit to the vet who was concerned about him not eating. Fine now, the sod.

We must pace the frontier of logistic regression. It is too powerful, and the risk to humanity of incorrect interpretations of odds ratios is an existential threat #statsky #ai

We are a very old building. We have lots of keys. We have lots of keys that don’t open anything. Join us for a one off installment of, “Keys of the Merchant Adventurers’ Hall that are pretty but completely useless”. 🔑 🧵

We are looking at two pewter plates with an assortment of large brass and iron keys in various shapes and sizes.

are plenty of reason to say that that variability is meaningful - e.g. variance in brain structure across individuals etc. but people seem to get too freaked out by it IMO. I know i've made the same argument in the past, but over time I just realized, like, so what? the mean is the mean 2/2

Matt Craddock @mattcraddock.com · 14/09/2026

so this comes up a lot in neuroscience. e.g. an ERP is the mean over trials, but you'd often be hard pushed to see a signal that looks much like the mean on each individual trial. or with any kind of spatial map, no individual participant looks exactly like the mean map. and the thing is there 1/x
