Tonight's rally follows a similar protest in Chicago on Saturday; other anti-war actions are being planned across the city over the week. 51803471

Damon Jones @nomadj1s.bsky.social · 13/01/2026So maybe I should be asking, if theory predicts b1>b2, what test *should* I be running? 100
Damon Jones @nomadj1s.bsky.social · 13/01/2026Oh, I see what you mean, standardizing the regressors. But after that, does that help me with testing these inequalities? 200
Damon Jones @nomadj1s.bsky.social · 13/01/2026In other words what does it mean to fail to reject the null in a positive one-sided test when the coefficient is so negative it would have failed a two-sided test? 100
Damon Jones @nomadj1s.bsky.social · 13/01/2026Embarrassing follow-up question. Philosophically, a one-sided test is supposed to be for when I “know” the sign of the coefficient. What if theory says what the sign should be, but I don’t “know” if the theory is correct, am I still supposed to do a one-sided test? 100
Damon Jones @nomadj1s.bsky.social · 13/01/2026In my case, I have inequalities between the betas. I guess I could write a regression that estimates b1, b2-b1, and b3-b2, my null is then b1-b2=0 and b3-b2 =0, and then what? Impose b1-b2=b2-b3 and test that in a one sided test? 220
Damon Jones @nomadj1s.bsky.social · 13/01/2026Q: There’s a regression with three coefficients: b1, b2, b3 A theory says b1 > b2 > b3 What statistical test should I perform to test this joint prediction? The point estimates are such that b3 > b1 > b2, if that matters 234

She didn't die, despite being shot multiple times, and the charges against her were eventually dropped, because the stories they tell to justify their violence are always bullshit and never hold up under scrutiny. 2477125
Damon Jones @nomadj1s.bsky.social · 31/12/2025Hmm, but WE both seem to agree that Walter was trash for that … sooo, then we can move on to analyzing Carol’s latest choices, no? 010

Damon Jones @nomadj1s.bsky.social · 10/12/2025There’s a logic to not inviting them, but it has backfired … hence a misstep … The first time 11M people die, she didn’t know it was going to happen, the second time? Probably want a do over in that spot … 010
