Quick check: do you agree or disagree with the following statement: Quick check: do you agree or disagree with the following statement: If a study finds a result significant at a p=0.05 level, that means they have followed a methodology which produces this conclusion correctly 95 % of the time. If a study finds a result significant at a p=0.05 level, that means they have followed a methodology which produces this conclusion correctly 95 % of the time. Yes or no?

I forgot to write a retrospective for the 2024 Q2 Quarterly Cup, because my approach to forecasting has become kind of boring: I only do it by gut feeling. No research, no analytics, not looking at the community prediction. This is not because my gut feeling is so great – it is because I have too many other things going on that I cannot take the time to forecast more accurately.

I have long struggled with understanding what probability-generating functions are and how to intuit them. There were two pieces of the puzzle missing for me, and we’ll go through both in this article.

An acquaintance was feeling what could have been early symptoms of illness, but wanted to run a 10k race later that day. They approached me because they sensed there was a statistical problem in there: how should they react to symptoms getting worse during the race? Is that a sign to quit, or is it likely to be a false positive? An acquaintance was feeling what could have been early symptoms of illness, but wanted to run a 10k race later that day. They approached me because they sensed there was a statistical problem in there: how should they react to symptoms getting worse during the race? Is that a sign to quit, or is it likely to be a false positive? The conclusion was surprising and interesting, so for this article, I’ve recast the problem in terms of site reliability...
