Really cool, and I can see how it could help your students visualise and assimilate the concepts. When I studied statistics in school, it was merely about formulas, and not much about understanding the concepts and their real world application... In hindsight I think it was just a waste of time!
Could you please define your terms for the lay audience?
- regression estimate
- standard deviation
Also, can you tell if the data is noisy just by looking at the blue dots?
Thanks.
getting early in bitcoin is great, but if there's a chance you could mend the relationship with your family members, that'd be even better. All the best.
I don't mean to be disrespectful but I think the real question is why is it that you do not trust your family?
All the best
Iran doesn't need to make the US look like the aggressor, US is the aggressor, Rubio has admitted it already, and everyone knows it too.
Iran has been emphatic about that this war will only end on their terms. Do not forget the asymmetric nature of this war, and also, bombing alone does not win wars.
The US are indeed in a very tricky spot. They are depleting their very expensive stockpile, they cannot protect the countries hosting their bases, and Trump will suffer greatly from the oil prices.
I'm personally rooting for a US defeat, political and/or military.
why would Iran, who is fighting for its existence, reopen Hormuz, when keeping it closed is their most effective weapon against the US?
I'm working on this.
I started 3 years ago, and have built almost everything from scratch, nostr and cashu libraries etc. chatgpt, and later Claude and codex coding agents changed everything.

I believed in his no more foreign wars stance so much that I didn't care about anything else. Now I'm just sad tbh, considering it was a lie from day one. In hindsight, I now see how the sudden withdrawal from the jcpoa accords with Iran was the first step of this machiallvelic plan. It was the plan from day one.
Trump is probably the biggest political disappointment in my lifetime. Not that I had much hope in the ability of the political process to bring true change, but such a blatant betrayal and gaslighting were definitely the last things I expected from this administration.
I don't want to play the victim, but the pain, the deception, and the suffering that the Western leaders continuously inflicts to the rest of the world, in the name of it democracy etc is unacceptable and unbearable.
After the Irak war, the assault of Libya and destabilisation of the Sahel region, Afghanistan, Epstein etc, it pains me to say that this time I've had enough, and I'm now firmly rooting for a defeat of the US military in Iran. The only thing I'm afraid of is that they go nuclear...
The key is to build intuition to decompose the task just right to hand off the parts that work and help out around the edges.
Here, he's highlighting the importance of computational thinking, as described in this 20yo article

I think she knows, but her profession forces her to "follow the orders" and act in that way.
It annoys me a bit the fixation on the LDL, without taking into account my metabolic health, which is never part of the discussion. And now, despite ultrasound showing without ambiguity that my arteries are healthy, I feel she's now moving the goalposts by trying to make me take them for prevention.
No thanks. I read a few studies and know precisely what I would be exposing myself to. I won't take that chance...
My doctor has been trying for a couple of years now to put me on statins, but I'm resisting. I've learned from this and several other videos on the topic more than the material provided to me by my doctor, which clearly looked like pharmaceutical one-sided marketing material. I had to put my eyes on actual studies to learn about potential adverse effects of these drugs.
I did a second blood test last summer, and my LDL values went down by 20+% without me even trying. Yesterday I got my latest test results, they had gone up again slightly, but after watching the video, I thought it could be due to the season, and the need for the body to produce more vitamin D in winter. (?)
Interestingly, my blood pressure is perfect, I had an ultrasound and CT scan done to check for potential plaque buildup in my arteries. Ultrascan came out negative, and I expect the ct scan results will be similar...
This has strengthened my resolve to avoid the statins, despite my doctor still subtly insisting, but I think my mind is made already...
I really enjoyed this article, and I found it very well summarised my own thoughts and experience with coding with agents, and opened my eyes to even more unexplored possibilities.
I started working on a project a couple of years ago, as a hobby, and I'm currently not sure I would have had the courage to start it, if I had anticipated what it requires, in time and effort, to get it done properly.
I won't claim I know every implementation detail, but I trust it follows the strict coding and architectural guidelines I have provided in my CLAUDE.md, and while doing so, it writes far better code than I could have ever dreamed of (I am at best average at it, no false modesty).
Where I think those agents excels is at troubleshooting issues. It takes Claude 5 minutes to identify and fix a problem where I would have spent hours, if not days.
I find myself focusing more on unit, integration, and e2e tests than I used to, this is my way of dealing with the omnipresent fear of getting too reliant on these tools, and losing touch and control...
Not sure, I suspect the co2 increase in the system, due to the breath holds?
But I also know that the opposite, hyperventilating (Wim Hof), also produces similar sensations.
A breathing technique I've tried, that works well against physical pain, and is excellent for calming down your nervous system. I call it the LSD breath, (Long, Slow, Diaphragmic):
Practice looong exhales, followed by breath holds, not too long so that you gasp for air on the next inhale, but long enough to create a mild air hunger. You'll have to play with the duration and find your sweet spot (it will vary). Shorten your inhale, but remain comfortable. You want a mild sense of air hunger, over time, your body will adjust.
Use your mind during the exhales and breath holds to invoke a sense of peace and relaxation.
After a while you'll start feeling tingling in your body, carry on and you'll later feel a deep and profound relaxation.
Best done in bed. Give it a try and let me know if it works for you as well.
(If you need a shirt break at some point, have a ten to fifteen seconds break, and get back to it)
Granted, "works for him" is probably more appropriate here, and I believe this is also the language used in the video.
But in any case, this is encouraging.
Amazing, thanks. Statistics is actually such a fascinating subject.
