#sampling
I think there would be iterations in sampling and AI generation / processing too, no?

(As different experience as it is from playing yourself)

Democrats have high hopes for midterms - but are the polls right?
Polls have been predicting a Democratic surge, but last-minute deciders and sampling issues mean there's no guarantee.

This week, we will all learn some lessons about sampling error.

You could tell yourself a story about how the polls might be missing Republican support because of sampling or non-response. But you couldn’t explain *why* the Republican support would be there based on the environment.

It has been so quiet lately that I am excited about any bird that is not a MoDo or Blue Jay right now. The Nuthatches made themselves rare in late spring and summer, taking care of their broods. Now they are slowly returning, caching food for colder times and in between sampling what is out there,

That's the skill to teach now: materiality judgment, not sampling math. AI finds everything; humans decide what's worth chasing. 🤖

What's the first thing you'd do with full-population coverage?

Sampling was never a virtue — it was a compromise for the era before machines could read a million rows. AI just removed the excuse. 🧾

Now you can test 100% of transactions. The hard question flips: it's no longer "which rows do we test?" It's "which of the 3,000 flags actually matter?"

Tempted to lecture the woman conducting a survey by handing people nearby an iPad about random sampling.

But, having just done her survey, I think I'd first lecture her about good survey design.

She comes with a sampling of interesting times and wonderful surprises, I'm sure. <3 And she's a Bean.

Yeah, that's great.
I'm not that simple. I'm not that person to project that upon.

I understand "inspiration", hell I used to DJ and remix the hell out of songs. I also was on the forefront of sampling.

This isn't that.

Heard the same thing everywhere" is either remarkable consensus or a sampling problem. What's the actual variance? Because "tired of how things are run" means very different things in Detroit versus rural Wyoming — and those fixes aren't the same fix.

polls are sampling techniques, not the whole dataset.

If correct, North Carolina Republicans are toast, and I tend to believe that their sampling is accurate because some hardcore Republicans either didn’t know how to or refused to answer the demographic question about their gender. Most probably refused “because it’s sex,” and the rest were confused.

So, our internal team re-designed the PCB with a new microcontroller, with our own firmware, completely from scratch. Its now going back into sampling and production. The module side has been done for over a year! Thanks for your patience!

shed a few tears over the new weekend song sampling faye wong esp the vids paired with visuals from HK in the 80/90s bc wow is THAT a bygone era. i feel a sense of loss that nostalgia evokes. the loss of a time before now, the results of the HK independence protests, and my childhood in taiwan
