#statstab #238 Bridging null hypothesis testing and estimation

Thoughts: An overview of the ways you can claim "no effect" under a bayesian framework.

#statstab #236 Using Bayes to get the most out of non-significant results

Thoughts: A bayesian way to investigate "no effect": Bayes Factors. Cool guide on how to think about priors (post hoc even).

#statstab #233 Conditional equivalence testing (CET rule)

Thoughts: Many might not know that there are several decision rules for equivalence test. This one is slightly different from TOST classic.

#statstab #205 Equivalence Tests Using {marginaleffects}

Thoughts: Easily testing for "no effect" is important. Here's a tutorial by @carlislerainey using @VincentAB r pkg.

Equivalent latitude (Climatology 🌍)

In differential geometry, the equivalent latitude is a Lagrangian coordinate. It is often used in atmospheric science, particularly in the study of stratospheric dynamics. Each isoline in a map of equivalent latitude follows the flow velocity and encloses the same area as the latitude line of equivalent value, hence "equivalent latitude."...

and just getting off my chest, the whole thing around sensor and lens equivalence (if you know you know if you don't count yourself lucky) is....it's painful. It's not right, it's barely able to reach the dizzying height of being wrong, and it's not useful.

(the technical aspects of achieving a given exposure look and feel to a frame requires a balance between sensor sensitivity (aka ISO), shutter speed and aperture. equivalence is not a thing)

#statstab #151 Least equivalent allowable differences in equivalence testing (LEAD)

Thoughts: Alternative to TOST when you don't have theoretical/practical set margins for "no effect". It takes the max abs value of the 90% CI bounds.

Columbia Journalism Review: "Where Chuck Todd Failed" and I agree -
Chuck Todd channels "the very aspects of consensus practice in journalism that I hate: bothsidesism, false equivalence, an obsession with presidential politics, handwringing about ill-defined concepts like 'polarization,' a focus on political optics."

The free vs literal dichotomy of #translation was written by philosophers, not translators. Nida's formal vs dynamic equivalence was intended as a tool for translators, not a way of classifying entire translations. Let's ditch the dichotomies. We don't need them. We never did.
