As far as I can tell, X-axis is agreement with the statement about repatriation of blacks restoring free speech, and comparing responses to that question with whether race mixing is bad. Sort responses alphabetically instead of by degree, use inappropriate bar graphs, and season to taste of insanity.

ToxicSlurpee posted:The thing that baffles me most about Austrian school adherents is that they're violently opposed to Keynsian economics even though Keynsian economics has been proven to actually work. It's a prime example of ideology over reality. Yeah, I love how Keynes' economics has in some circumstances had flawed predictions but in general seems to work in practice, whereas the Austrian school has beautifully consistent theorems that frequently fall over when exposed to the real world. We've been doing this Supply Side poo poo for at least forty years, we have lots of evidence the theory doesn't match the practice.

Sort of. MLMs are required to publish this sort of information (hopefully to convince people how garbage they are) but there aren't any rules about misleading presentation apparently. Ensign Expendable posted:Is that supposed to be a log scale? Yup. Here's what it looks like with a regular scale and with Log scale for comparison. For further context, over 99.43% make less than their published median, and over 98.8% make less than the weighted average.

Super basic stuff that's so obvious people forget it: Label axes, always, and make sure they have units. If you have multiple line graphs or scatter plots on one plot, be sure that they are distinct in at least two ways, one of which in case it's printed in black and white. Different shapes + different line patterns or thicknesses, for example. This also covers your rear end with colorblind people. Know what you're trying to say, and which graph is the one that says it in the least time. Lines for trends, bars for independent "buckets" of information, etc. On that note, make sure it's clear in general. Clear, readable font in an appropriate size, no goofy graphics, line widths and patterns the give the data structure but don't distract from the data itself.

doverhog posted:God cannot be omnipotent and benevolent, as is proved by the world as it is. This is what convinced me, ways back, that he does not exist, at least not in any form taught by the major monotheistic religions. Not to derail, but the third pillar of the argument of theodicy is that god is also omniscient. With the first two you could have an all-powerful God that wanted the best for creation but just didn't know everything. Like that minecraft cummies would be a thing, and now god just wants to destroy everything.

I love the logic of this because it presupposes fractional BTC isn’t a thing. In their minds, people will be fighting to be the one to buy their bitcoin from them for the equivalent of millions of dollars instead of just using .00000054 BTC for their stupid transaction (or, more realistically, laughing when they run to pay for something with their worthless internet tokens)

It’s happened in Europe, Germany especially I believe, and called cradle to grave responsibility. In the US though yeah it’s going to be an uphill battle. Related to your comment, my toothpaste went from 7.4 oz. to 4.7 oz., and it took me a second to realize they were different sizes. I have no doubt this was a deliberate choice on the part of the manufacturers.

The Cheshire Cat posted:I think the female ferret thing is only if you don't get them spayed though. It has something to do with a buildup of hormones but if they've been fixed then they no longer produce them. Ferrets have also been horrifically inbred by industry groups that only provide fixed animals and are prone to all sorts of diseases because of said genetic mismanagement, with little option for someone to try to breed a more resilient or domesticated line. Which is sad, because (your friend's) ferts are awesome fun meat slinkies to play with

Closed primaries are also so that people can’t sabotage opposing primaries (and still get to vote in their favored one, at least). You still see this where campaigns will fund spoiler candidates in secret to try and divide their opponents’ votes in the primary This is all still an artifact of First Past the Post and would be greatly helped by Single Transferable Vote, but we’re not allowed to have nice things so...

Powered Descent posted:I think I once ran across a paper where someone did a rigorous mathematical analysis of the predator-prey dynamics among vampires and humans as shown in Buffy the Vampire Slayer. If I recall correctly, the town was a pretty feasible ecosystem, mathematically speaking. I remember seeing another that I think used Bram Stoker’s Dracula (or maybe it was Underworld) and concluding humanity was basically doomed unless vampires were exterminated very, very early on
