The paper is open access, fortunately, so you can go view the list of covariates that were included in the model at the link

It depends on the effect sizes, but in most contexts 5k participants is considered a very sufficient sample. You don’t need millions of participants to study things like this.

I can’t speak for this specific study, but in general that sounds like a statistical interaction, which is very common in statistical modeling.

Has anyone prevented him from standing on a soapbox in the park? If not, then he still has a perfectly available avenue for his hate speech

Why not? It’s so clear cut it’d be a slam dunk for MailChimp.

SM breached the contract himself when he violated the ToS.

https://mailchimp.com/legal/terms/ Seems pretty clear cut to me. SM was in violation of the Mailkimp TOS. I don’t get why this is newsworthy though?

I’m not eager to call you a racist, I’m eager for you to stop being racist on HN.

I’m not sure nihilism is a productive response, Rick.

You're still doing exactly what I asked you not to do. What exactly is the "great surprise" that you mentioned? What exactly is it that you think my "asian friends" are going to see? Come on, spit it out, have the c

I wish the authors would just make their point instead of bandying about florid prose (which is extra out-of-place in a medical journal!) and inappropriately invoking political conservatism. It takes them until the 5th or 6th paragraph to e

This is greatly appreciated, thank you!

Not all of Paris is like what?

Could you tell me what you think the “surprise” is, exactly? I don’t quite get it, I need you to explicitly say what you mean.

I find Buzzfeed News to be consistently factual and well-written. If anyone has evidence to the contrary I'd rather they discussed that than simply maligning the outlet

Wait, you're not a fan of Newsweek, so you're posting an alternate take from a right-wing propaganda outlet?

This is the perfect and always perfectly accurate response whenever someone links to the Rational-sphere. On the other hand, why use few words when you could use—Jesus Christ—6,663 words instead?

Whitewashing the reputation of a famous person—although it happens all the time-would be far worse malpractice

What the heck? The job of a journalist is not to tell you what you want to hear. I’m sorry if some Mormons didn’t want to hear unpleasant things about their leader, but if they were true then they were news

This reactionary outrage bait doesn’t belong on HN

You're right, once corruption becomes pervasive enough, addressing it becomes way too boring and obvious. Better to do nothing.

I asked a customer service rep about it on the online chat. Here's what they said (I doubt they'd mind me posting it here): 16:10:46 Thank you for contacting us. An operator will be with you shortly. 16:10:46 Guest: Is there an in

I don't know. The website says that there's an $85 activation fee, and my friend's income is such that a large installation fee would have been impossible for him (just like most folks in the north woods!).

We tried tax breaks--hell, we even tried simply giving companies like comcast billions to do the job. Instead they just took the money and didn't do anything. If we the people want something done, we have to do it ourselves.

This is exactly right! A "new" New Deal which in part addresses the USA's crumbling and outdated infrastructure would be a far better solution than the patchwork of government-guaranteed corporate monopolies we have now.
