@eastmond_andrew Yup. In return, one too many of his players being treated like sh*t.

And somewhere Christian Lavers is laughing and happily relieving suburban upper middle class parents of their money 🙄

@JeffTho10676714 @LGAmbrose @Stillmanator @jamesmcnicholas @LeGrove @MikeMmcdonald @YankeeGunner @cliveafc Hi all. You are tagging me @Layth but you got the wrong person.

… (@lgambrose), Tim Stillman (@stillmanator), & James (@jamesmcnicholas). Next thing you know, your reading LeGrove (@legrove) pieces (+ hearing from his best mates Johnny & Matt), discovering Mike (@mikemmcdonald), @Layth, @YankeeGunner and his crew (shout out to @CliveAFC) 4/n

Friday March 31 my family: me, spouse, 2 teens, arrive London… 1st time ever in England (+ Scotland) for 10 days. Fortunate & excited. Played soccer growing up. Started watching Arsenal in late 90s… loved their football: Ian Wright, Bergkamp, Overmars, T. Henry 1/n @arseblog

@backseatgaffer @Griffin_Author @RealSoccer16 @mollyhc @USClubSoccer @thekccurrent @CSM_Worldwide "His" prick behavior to youth players is well known in the Milwaukee community. Not optimistic that "his will be coming." Hope I am wrong.

@Griffin_Author @RealSoccer16 @mollyhc @USClubSoccer @thekccurrent @CSM_Worldwide Simple. You deny they exist and keep on self-dealing. Glad this is getting the proper airing and his will be coming.

@KabirCreates As a follow-up, I showed this parlor trick to my stats class. I am covering regression these past few weeks. Perfect timing to show this case and the associated ethical issues.

This dude is running for Senate and seems to be almost INTENTIONALLY misleading people with voter fraud claims in Michigan. I go through why the analysis is flawed here #Election2020 kabir-naim.medium.com/dr-shiva-ayyad…

@KabirCreates You are spot on. Just smoke and mirrors with y and x variables to give a negative scatter to make the gullible think there is a red flag. At the core, he is assuming Trump should receive the same % of party voters as candidate voters. That is a red herring and false assumption.

@UChiPritzker CNN today mentions Scott Atlas as an alumus of uchicago med as do other media. Stanford Med wrote an open letter disavowing him. Will uchicago take a stance?

@octonion For n = 130 and approximately 95% CI and random sample, the margin of error will be no greater than 2*sqrt(.5*.5/130) = 0.088 or about 9%.

What's fascinating here is that the reported margin of error (9%) seems almost nonsensically low in context. It really makes you wonder how they're doing sampling and what type and degree of sampling bias is actually occurring.

Pioneering #UChicago mathematician, Prof. Gregory Lawler, has been awarded the prestigious Wolf Prize for his work in probability. Join us in congratulating Prof. Lawler on receiving this honor! ms.spr.ly/6015TBU4T

@alwaysmansour Dear Mansour, I have always been proud to carry my name. I realized I should do it before Twitter became popular. Thxs for kindly asking. I love you brand name!

My university @UChicago continues to be an Economics giant. Paul Romer, an alumnus, wins share of Nobel Prize. Congrats! news.uchicago.edu/story/economis… 91 scholars associated with the university have received Nobel Prizes so far. 30 of them in economics. @UChi_Economics

@spyrosmakrid Great ML/time series paper. I am making it required reading for my students. Statisicians need to do more studies like this. ML can have a role but folks accept it like a cult without studies like yours.

ML methods can't even beat out naive forcast. Statisticians need to do more studies like this to show at times the Emperor (ML) has no clothes. journals.plos.org/plosone/articl…

The major finding is: ”The forecasting accuracy of ML forecasting methods is lower than the worst of statistical ones while the accuracy of more than half the ML methods is lower than a random walk”. journals.plos.org/plosone/articl…

@PomsSociety Will there be a transcript of the debate?

The panelists for the #eDebate are:

The topic for #POMS2018 #eDebate is: “In the age of big data, should OM research/teaching be more data-driven or should OM research/teaching focus more on analytical models to complement the data-driven research/teaching in other disciplines?” @qiuliangfei @subodha0 @NJoglekar

@brianwilt @Jawbone Nice distribution plot of mean sleep times by University on jawbone blog. What is the mean and standard deviation of individual student observation? Curious how they compare with other studies, like Orzech.

Students at the most competitive universities in the country are night owls via @Jawbone: jawbone.com/blog/universit…

@octonion Did u look at 1975 American Statistician paper on optimal 0 memory blackjack strategy for 4 decks? And 1956 JASA paper on optimal strategy
