Ireland is far north enough that there is some distortion from the Mercator projection, but I don't know if that's enough to explain that particular oddity.

ShimaTetsuo posted:Credibility intervals are a sort of Bayesian analog to frequentist confidence intervals (but with respect to the posterior distribution, not the sampling distribution). More pertinently, credible intervals actually are what everyone wants confidence intervals to be.

evobatman posted:It looks like this graphic (and IAFD) includes only "movies", as in titles that are published on DVD. It doesn't seem to include online work for websites such as Brazzers, Bangbus, DDF and so on, and I'm gonna guess that's a much much bigger market both in jobs and consumption. It's probably a lot harder to get data on those.

Powered Descent posted:Today I learned it's possible to plagiarize yourself. I hate that this is called plagiarism, but it's absolutely something that an academic can get in trouble for. When you publish a paper, you generally have to turn the copyright over to the journal that accepts it so that they can distribute it without having to get your signature on innumerable forms. If you then turn around and copy a substantial amount of text from that paper and publish it in a different journal, then that can become an issue. The solution is to completely scrap the journal system and replace it with something sane, but until then, we have to worry about this poo poo.

The wing ordering problem can be solved with dynamic programming. To order n wings, you need to know the cheapest combination of n - k wings and k wings for all k in [0, n/2], so the solution should scale polynomially in n.

Lysidas posted:e: also by "in NP", I assume you mean "NP-hard" -- this is an optimization problem, but the decision version ("can you order n wings for less than $k?") is in P and therefore isn't NP-hard. We think.

Count Roland posted:What are the best sources of really in depth journalism? I already read the Economist and like it but I really want more of the same quality or better. Vox is somewhat variable in quality, but their best articles are very good. They're one of the best sources I've seen for health reporting. Bloomberg didn't make the chart for whatever reason, but their long-form reporting is incredibly solid. They just don't really do a lot of it. Edit: That's not the latest version of that particular graphic. Here's an updated one:
