We need to stop every person in the executive branch of being able to use emergency powers, it needs to fucking stop. It's so out of control, we now see the abuses of an idea meant for protection and good. We have a government that rules by legislation, not by decree

Texas has had 4,140,000 cases of COVID-19 resulting in 68,075 deaths.
So far.
For comparison 2,996 people died in the September 11 attacks of 2001, which resulted in significant losses of freedom, a lot more substantial than putting on a mask when you go out.
(You still have to put on pants when you go out. No one seems to be complaining about that).

But per capita, Texas is among the lowest deaths for covid lately. You have to compare it per capita.

you simply DO NOT understand the art form known as “statistics”, nor do you understand how easily they are manipulated to make them say whatever you want them to say.
statistics are not data. these are completely different forms of expression. one is unarguable fact, the other is a vehicle of personal politics.
also, if you honestly believe that the average american had more freedoms compromised because of 9/11 than this 20 odd month shit show, i’d really like to move to where you live……which i’m assuming is texas lol. maybe florida.

I have a degree in mathematics and my job often involves statistical analysis.
So assume I can understand the jargon: What specifically is a better statistical analysis of the data?
Hmm. Which do you claim is which? Are you suggesting raw data is "unarguable fact" independent of how it is collected? Or that it is a vehicle of personal politics because it can be biased by the methods of collection?

I'm pretty sure that's accountancy. Different faculty. I did mathematics in the science faculty. Accountancy is usually taught in the business faculty.

There's mathematical structures where that is true. Not very interesting if by 1 you mean the multiplicative identity, and by "+" you mean a binary operation over which multiplication is distributive. Which is the normal meaning in group theory.
I can't think of one that has more than the one element.
But while this journey down discrete mathematics memory lane is fun, this has nothing to do with statistics.

I understand monkey's frustration that many people don't understand statistics. It's good to talk with other people with a basic understanding of sampling, bias and significance testing. I was just letting him know that if you uses technical jargon to explain his points formally, I will understand.
Is there some "basic shit" about statistics that you think I don't understand?
I'd be interested if you could articulate what.

statistics isn’t a fucking science. it’s not math either. it is 100 present presentation oriented. it’s like serving mcdonald’s food on fine china if you want it to be.

I am. I want to just go out in my robe and boxers like The Dude.
Well that's still legal. You have to wear the boxers.

Ah yes government over reach to combat government over reach. It's funny that people are applauding this. It's like which dick do you suck, red or blue? Either way your still getting cum in your face. Thinking the elite are helping the people in any way is laughable, this case included. This is a polarized topic, just like guns, abortion, immigration, etc., that the two sides are again acting like they are opposite sides. Its theater people come on this man or any of these elites are not out to help us.

One side is making mandates, the other is saying "no thanks to the mandates". Hardly the same. One side is putting people out of business and forcing people in to homelessness, the other is allowing businesses to operate normally.

Don't know how I missed this so many days....anywho, welcome back magnora, it's good to see you around here again. We'll see what comes out of this. I disagree but it's a little old to be responding now just wanted to say welcome back and maybe we can have a similar convo on another thread to see how each other thinks about this.

Are you making a joke? The government has never given us our rights and will never give us our rights. The will of the people dictate the rights we have no matter what the government says, that's why the are inalienable.

Is that generally true?
For instance, laws ban me from releasing sarin gas near my neighbor's fence, when the wind is blowing towards their property.
But even though I can't do that, I think that it's not true to say that "there is no freedom". I have other freedoms. I can plant whatever trees I want on my side of the fence, for instance.
