The Dunning-Kruger effect is a cognitive bias where people with low ability in a specific area tend to overestimate their competence, while those with high ability tend to underestimate it. Essentially, those who know the least are often the most confident, and those who know the most can be plagued by self-doubt.

you are making a "survivorship bias" fallacy. And **** you if you think I am going to define that for you. Like I said, I am not your mother. Look it up.
To give some backstory here, I was exposing Veghead's stupid article about his usual presidential rankings. He was using a fallacy that is called "survivorship bias." Now, I don't expect people to know offhand what that means. However, given how much Veghead brags that he has superior aptitude in stats...and math in general, there was no need for me to define the fallacy. He should already know since it's a common term in stats. So, what did he think it meant? He took it literally and thought it meant dead presidents. LOL! The bolded quote at the end proves how intellectually superior he is. Image I am left with no choice, but to publicly embarrass him. @Blackvegetable I will never let you live this gem down.
There are actual real cases of this. You know those bogus martial arts teachers that show people being thrown around by the master without even touching them? Students actually pay for those lessons. A real martial arts teacher came in to challenge him in a sparring match. Guess who won? orWhen a sample fails to reflect "mortality" in the population being examined.

Either A, B, C, or D.
Let me break this down for your dumb ***. You see the 4 options to the question? Every option includes your definition, but only one is an example of survivorship bias. Your definition was half assed. Like all of your content.

Which scenario is an example of survivorship bias in evaluating business success?
A) Believing that reading business books increases revenue after finding many CEOs recommend them.
B) Concluding that most startups fail after analyzing bankrupt companies.
C) Thinking entrepreneurship is easy because most media profiles focus on successful founders.
D) Surveying customers to understand why they chose your product over competitors
His biggest problem is his mother. I have absolutely no doubt he was sexually attracted to her and at the very least masturbated with her in mind more than once. He carries a lot of resentment/embarassment on her behalf. Would not surprise me that they actually "did it" and the relationship is really aloof and awkward.RebelGator » 30 Jun 2025, 5:46 am » wrote: ↑ Obama had a drunk communist for a father and a whore for a mother and he became a President.....I don't know what problems BV blames for his failures.
I couldn't resist as I figured it'd light him right up...

"Try to get past your passionate ignorance and learn to accept what actually happened." ~ brown's unheeded words of wisdom If you know anyone who wants to start a fire to attract firefighters and kill them, please say something and drown that shyt before it happens. Also, if you can bring yourself to condemn anyone who assassinates politicians it would help. But you think beating cops is justified and a pardonable offense.
