Just think, if Ian follows Jawn's advice, we could be seeing hot reporters pointing at maps n poo poo on CNN with powered by Statpedia® in they corners. Actually maybe Jawn should just make statpedia

ten dollar bitcoin posted:Jawn make the statpedia i concur with the assessment that it's a solution in search of a problem there's one obvious problem that would take the least effort to tune statpedia to, but since Ian's never heard the phrase "likely voter" he can't slap it together in the 41 days that somebody would give a poo poo seriously it's the one time every 4 years that statistics is meaningful to a lot of people and we're here on a computer joke forum with Serious Questions about the tone of the discussion. after this window, the only people who will care about statistics and amateur toolsets are fantasy sports wonks

btw here's the extant pretty frontends: http://www.270towin.com/ http://electoralmap.net so i'm saying you hook one of THOSE up to some polling data and the user just specifies a model (e.g. use rasmussen only, assume R+10 turnout and I's go 80% R) that will automagically update with new polling data when available

so is statpedia supposed to make money for you somehow? like, people will give you money for the completed product? is the uncertainty on the kickstarter page meant to build confidence. could you show me a stat to clear all of this up?

i was serious when i was asking about the uncertainty. "seems like a reliable method" "last i checked" "everyone is pulling at this stat system in different directions" "a lot of directions this project can go" i mean what the heck! you don't seem like you know what you are doing, or even what you want to do also if you think you can "Work out every last little kink before official release in one year from now" holy looooooool ian, you are doomed
