- nickff 10y agoIf I say there is a 97.5% chance that the parent was correct, am I more agreeing or disagreeing? WEP standard says that anything above 94% is "almost certain", so you 'basically' said that it was "almost certain" the parent was correct.[1] [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Words_of_estimative_probability https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Words_of_estimative_probabilit...
- late2part 10y agoThese words you are putting in my mouth don't fit. 97.5% probability is nothing like almost certain. I think we just have different viewpoints on precision and language, friend. I still like you!
