This conversation can serve no useful purpose anymore. It's clear that you will never admit that there's anything wrong with your "analysis" (too big a word for pasting data in a spreadsheet), as far as you are concerned, you are a bloody genius (and helping people!) by plotting a bunch of points in a log scale. And of course any criticism of your methods can only be persecution and for "psychological reasons"... I wonder why anybody would post in a discussion forum if they are going to completely ignore any feedback or criticism (and in a very Trump manner say they're victims of personal persecution). Maybe just validation? I don't know, I'm not a psychologist.
Like other people have said through this thread, it's rather simple: you don't know what you are doing, and at this time bad information is worse than no information, and it will hurt people. And reiterating my remarks on my first post: stop being so arrogant, this is really the only word to describe your attitude as far as I'm concerned.
- throwaway_pdp09 7y agoIt does seem to serve no good purpose when we are talking across each other. For example I clearly and immediately modified my original post to state there was a risk of error because I was using the wrong curve (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22645793 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22645793). And "I am a bloody genius [...] by plotting a bunch of points in a log scale" - I actually used the words 'admittedly trite' about what I did. Whatever. This gets us nowhere. Your profile says you have a background in physics and logic/automated reasoning. I'm just a general purpose back-end dev. We're facing something that may kill more people than WW2, let's concentrate on that. Can we work together to do something useful? Thoughts?
