Agents CLI v1.8.0's eval namespace supports a hill-climbing loop: a baseline run scored mean 4.0000 (stdev 1.4142) across 4 cases, and a wrong chef system prompt dropped it to 2.7500.

Are there? We should obviously do all of those! Whatever should be done to Elon Musk sounds great.
We should do all of those. If we can increase the mean, increase the median, and reduce stdev at the same time, obviously we should always do that. I am skeptical that that is often possible.

So, let's presume that most games aren't good or bad, but are just average.
In statistics, we have the concept of a normal distribution.
For 2025's PS4/PS5 games, MobyGames data for 510 games says the average critic score is 75%.
191 games are 80 or above.
197 between 70-79.
122 below 70.

We find that a one stdev increase in past long-term exposure to political violence increases odds of adolescents and young adults experiencing emotional violence from family members by 5.5%, physical violence from intimate partners by 3.0%, and #sexualviolence in poorer households by 16.9%. 3/4

Yeah with the caveat that I’m happy to bucket them all in the Religious Delusions category it’s within a stdev or two of anybody else in the cabinet’s religious delusions, ie id put a rack on Hegseth calling his war a crusade in private, etc.

That, given their cost adjusted funding, Dem districts perform +.02 (or more) stdev or so above national mean, and Republican districts -.03 (or more) below national mean, for a difference on average around .07 standard deviations in outcomes.

however, if cohesins are randomly misaligned with stdev=s, we'd expect the trans-contact frequency to be the same for identical sites and sites at distance d, as long as d << s (meaning, the curve would be flat for d << s)

*I* was losing patience after slide #13 and I imagine I should be multiple stdev away from the median in how much capacity I have to digest processes like this. No way a 65+, or someone with big comorbidities, is handling this

The forecast looks like more "close but no cigar" for Logan, which doesn't radiate well given its location on the water.
So while we will have an anomalously late first freeze, it hasn't been a warm month.

the tiebreaker in any game is goal differential, but the tiebreaker in a season is an abstract sum of “points.” Maybe the goal should be to combine the universal (season) with the particular (game).
Stdev goal diff = 25.43.
Stdev pts diff = 18.12 (.71*sGD).
Stdev goal diff = 25.43.
Stdev pts diff = 18.12 (.71*sGD).

Homeruns really hurt in the game score formula.
We use Tom Tango's formula, which is:
raw_gs = [(2 * Outs) + K - (2 * BB) - (2 * Hits) - (3 * ER) - (6 * HR)] / TBF
Scaled where 75 (C) is AVG and a StDev (letter grade) is 10, so:
game_score = (raw_gs-0.481)/0.875*10+75
