- mythz 7y agoI respect the level of free time taken to run and publish this experiment! Interesting results, I thought they'd be more skewed.
- Retric 7y agoFalling below the noise floor is different from proving no correlation. Negative results for a given experiment simply mean it’s below an the experiments ability to detect. Aka, you need to pick a threshold for bias that’s interesting before designing the experiment. A casino might care a great deal about say 0.5% bias which would take a lot of trials to detect.
