I haven't read the whole thread, but I'm assuming y'all are discussing the definition of "survivorship bias" from what I have read.
True dat.
@Vegas has failed to actually demonstrate that I'm wrong.
Dude, I'm a WWII buff... and one of the best examples of survivor bias came about during that conflict.R.Suave » 15 Apr 2024, 5:41 pm » wrote: ↑ @Vegas can't participate in such a discussion.
He has no idea what it is.

I told @Vegas about that at the time.*rippy38 » 15 Apr 2024, 5:50 pm » wrote: ↑ Dude, I'm a WWII buff... and one of the best examples of survivor bias came about during that conflict.
The brass was analyzing where the bullet holes were in returning aircraft and ordering extra armor plating in the areas that suffered the most hits... when in reality they should have been plating the areas where the surviving aircraft weren't hit, since the planes that took hits in those areas, never came back at all.
That is a classic example of the theory.
The first example you offered is close, but not quite there... and the second is a copy and paste that explains it much better.R.Suave » 15 Apr 2024, 5:51 pm » wrote: ↑ I told @Vegas about that at the time.
Now tell me how my definition is wrong.

In layman's terms, it's reacting/acting upon what the winners did while discounting why the losers lost in the first place... which is where the improvement is actually needed.
that bluff won't fly, girl.The first example you offered is close, but not quite there

You asked me for my opinion and I gave it.
Sorry if it hurt your fee-fees.
So... where is his definition.
Though it's hardly the point, go ahead and ask him....I'll be right here*rippy38 » 15 Apr 2024, 6:22 pm » wrote: ↑ So... where is his definition.
I don't mind critiquing it too.
You've been saying he was wrong and/or didn't know what it was all afternoon so... you either have access to his definition or you're just blowing smoke.R.Suave » 15 Apr 2024, 6:32 pm » wrote: ↑ Though it's hardly the point, go ahead and ask him....I'll be right here

If he didn't know and never offered a definition, then I commend him for not trying to act like he knew something that he didn't.
Humility is very strong personal trait to possess.
You should try it sometime.
You've already tagged him twice.
You'll see why..
Now you've tagged him three times.

Maybe he's logged off for the night?
I don't see his name in the online users list.
