- m1el 9y agoI agree with your mission statement. It's important to match the demographics of the population with the demographics of trial users. It's important to prevent as many deaths as we can. It's important to account for differences between groups when you're developing healthcare. But please, don't mangle mathematical terms.

(More general bias is "attribution bias") HN guideline: >Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize. Assume good faith.
