@Molson_Hart @normonics Trump was printing like crazy BEFORE Covid to manufacture a good employment number. Also he did NOT betray just Pence. Perhaps 100 such victims. He has no notion of loyalty/honor. — PolitiTweet.org

@immuno458 @SusanGroff1 @papapalpatin Dr San Juan, you should do more thinking when on Twitter, deploy more logical faculty & not produce primitive fortune cookie evidentiary requirements. And realize doing homework on my feed the existence of ~30% additional unaccounted death in the US directly att to Covid. — PolitiTweet.org

How does a statesperson behave? De Gaulle stopped his campaign from revealing embarrassing facts about his rival, then Mitterrand. Why? His answer was that it would weaken the dignity of the French presidency should Mitterrand win the election. — PolitiTweet.org

What did I learn from the Trump presidency? No matter your message, your policies, your public, as an executive you must have *some* amount of decorum & abide by the following Roman virtues: + Dignitas + Gravitas + Auctoritas + Iustitia in addition to the main one: Prudentia. — PolitiTweet.org

@SusanGroff1 @papapalpatin Actually, no. Plenty of unaccounted Covid death are falls or heart attacks or strokes caused by the virus. One of the main ER was falls by people passing out. They infected others as they did not know it was Covid. — PolitiTweet.org

PROBABILITY DU JOUR: What are the odds it was COVID? Let q be the pr. of having a COVID infection (% of the CH population). Let p_1 be the pr. of a healthy 57 y.o dying of a sudden heart attack. Let p_2 be the conditional pr. of a Covid infected 57 y.o dying of a heart attack. — PolitiTweet.org

@davidpapineau What is outside the tails is a matter of "precision", i.e. faulty equipment, etc., and converges with simple repetition. — PolitiTweet.org

@davidpapineau One more comment on Neyman-Pearson: there is an abuse of terms. As with other asymmetries, in a pairwise comparison they are just ranking A better than B rather than saying A is "accepted". — PolitiTweet.org

@davidpapineau n other words, science is about "NO EVIDENCE OF DISEASE", never "EVIDENCE OF NO DISEASE". Type 1 error is just a matter of sensitivity of the testing method. — PolitiTweet.org

@NBDruds @ektrit @davidpapineau No, Bayes factors produce rankings. And I've shown it does not work under fat tails/ alternative probability distributions. — PolitiTweet.org

@davidpapineau Yes, as I said it is not in the tails. The so-caled p value and Z score is about the tail, events lying <p or in scores, exceeding >Z. Hence a huge asymmetry, like what Popper proposed. — PolitiTweet.org

@davidpapineau This is an abuse of language by N-P. You cannot "accept" since it is conditional (probabilistic) & there remains a tail. When you reject there is no tail. — PolitiTweet.org
