Not sure what you are claiming about them relies on referencing the properties of normal distributions.

If that's correct then it just confirms Barnes' contention that this trial hinged around jury selection. If she is the kind of person she is conjectured to be then she is exactly the sort that Barnes warned about. He specifically mentioned the mask wearers in the candidate pool as potential problems. The fact that Richards gave a good factual closing argument and seemed to have taken some advice has led to some glossing over of his shitty general performance. He does not appear to have understood that he needed to do more than win on the facts, he needed to get the judge to sequester the jury and to understand the extent of the potential jury bias. He also needed to be far more vocal about prosecution intransigence because as it is he allowed the judge to pass the buck without pressure. He's been too scared to irritate the judge and I think that's a mistake. Schroeder doesn't seem to hold grudges and looks as if he's the kind of guy who is open to reconsidering his position. Rittenhouse had better get someone else for a retrial if it comes to that.

Your argument doesn't require them to be normal.
And your evidence and argument for that is what? You might try expending a bit of thought and effort to justify your claims. Who knows? You or I - or both of us - might learn something ... ;)
You want me to point to the part of your argument that doesn't require a claim of normal distribution? All of it. What bits of it do you think you are relying on it being normal for? All I see is you making observations based on the distribution curves and then for some reason also claiming that the distribution is normal. That claim serves no purpose.

The inferences you are making can be justified by looking at the distribution curves. You haven't made any claims about IQ, or height that rely on anything other than what can readily be observed by looking at the curves.

I heard the Rekeita livestream peanut gallery mention an independent online researcher/ crowdsourcing nexus known as "Darth Crypto".

I was just offered work as a Covid Compliance Officer-- for an event consisting-of a bunch of girls handing-out free promotional product samples-- for some beauty brand.

If I pay $50 to watch a one-way live online seminar (I need not turn on my webcam or mic)... I'll be considered 'certified'. And I don't need to prove I'm vax'd ! Ad copy says I'll be taught 'OSHA standards', but fine print disclaimer says OSHA has provided no specific standards for a compliance officer cert.

Internet says starting salary is $83,000/year if I pursue this career opportunity in a growing field.

I read Schroeder unusually rushed voir dire. Each side only got 7 preemptions for a pool of 64. Perhaps a body language expert could've spotted this one. But what if there'd been eight or more Closet Karen's?

LOVE old Elvis Costello. Bruce Thomas is one of the best bass players in history. Costello would have never gotten popular without Thomas. Just play this song and listen to the bass line! The bass actually drives the melody. Fantastic.

Dog... you would make an excellent Covid Nazi.

Your Honor, you have noted that the news media has broadcast many inaccurate statements about this case.

With a single glance at the juror pool, you can see that many prospective jurors are wearing face masks.

Each and every one of those masks is evidence of a juror who has been swayed to believe televised lies about Covid and masks.

They are no more immune to lies about this case-- than lies about Covid. The masks don't fit, you must acquit, Binger licks shit.

By telling him about the year-long media lie fest and political pressure, insistently, and persisting. It was negligent not to hammer home any possible grounds for an appeal or mis-trial as early as possible. Richards was so passive it was painful.

Not just my opinion, I'm watching 10 lawyers all agreeing that it was a terrible defence and if the factual evidence wasn't so strong KR would be in prison.

Maybe because you're not listening or are unwilling to read and think about what I've posted? This in particular which I've posted before:
In statistics, quality assurance, and survey methodology, sampling is the selection of a subset (a statistical sample) of individuals from within a statistical population to estimate characteristics of the whole population.

No shame in being ignorant - we're all born that way. But there's some disapprobation associated with refusing to read and think about the relevant facts and theories on the table.

Shocking! The hell you say! ;)

Curious and interesting phenomenon though, the dichotomy between reality and illusion as the movie "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" dealt with in some detail. Particularly where people lose sight of the difference - as in much of the transgender clusterfuck - and expect everyone else to play along with their delusions.

LoL. Let me know when you're ready to answer the questions I posed earlier.

And/or when or if you plan on pimping out your daughter as Matt had suggested ... ;)

But you seem willing to concede the use of normal distributions and statistical sampling in engineering applications, yet you apparently balk at their applications to "psychometrics" or even to more tangible physiological traits like heights. Apropos of which:
Adult heights within a population are approximately normally distributed due to genetic and environmental variance.44

Height is partly determined by the interaction of 423 genes with 697 variants.45

One of the basic rules of probability (known as the Central Limit Theorem) says the distribution of a trait that is determined by independent random variables, like height and genes, roughly follows a bell curve. This means the range of human heights in a population fall centrally around the mean height. ....

We see this distribution of heights in the chart. As an aggregate of the regions with available data – Europe, North America, Australia, and East Asia – they found the mean male height to be 178.4 centimeters (cm) in the most recent cohort (born between 1980 and 1994).48 The standard deviation was 7.59 cm. This means 68% of men were between 170.8 and 186 cm tall; 95% were between 163.2 and 193.6 cm. Women were smaller on average, with a mean height of 164.7 cm, and standard deviation of 7.07 cm. This means 68% of women were between 157.6 and 171.8 cm; and 95% between 150.6 and 178.84 cm.

I'm not arguing about sampling. None of your claims have anything to do with IQ or height being normally distributed. Directing me to wikipedia articles on statistical properties that would be true of any distribution doesn't help. Which of your claims require the sample to be normally distributed?

Where the fuck have I said that the tool is not "often misapplied"? Quite agree that that is often the case.

The problem is that you're apparently unwilling to consider the use of that tool to measure things like psychological and physiological traits such as "agreeableness" and heights. Which you might have realized was my argument if you could get your head out of your arse and read what I've posted instead of shooting from the lip or before your gun is out of its holster.

Tsk, tsk. And here I thought this was a family-oriented website.

If that's what you want then maybe you should contact another type of website or your local brothel - maybe someone there can help you out because I sure won't.

What? Which distributions? The sample distributions?

But don't think you have a clue what you're talking about. You might just as well say "2+2=5". Or "2 = + 5 2"

I have previously stated that I am not going to talk about the normal distribution with Steers... so I will take this opportunity to ask the pyt if they think Steers knows what a standard deviation is. Please reply below with your vote. As for me... I am certain Steers to too blisteringly juvenile to admit that he has never calculated a standard deviation from a data set. Please vote... America wants to know.

oh... and Steers.... please suck my ass.

Cuomo says 37 year-old 1st attacker was trying to beat up 17 y.o. Rittenhouse, but Rittenhouse shouldn't be allowed to defend himself with gun.

I once had a job where I had to normalise outliers in dataset where they exceeded 1.5 standard deviation.

I didn’t know what I was doing, but I had a Lotus123 macro to assist. Control Z from memory. 🤷‍♂️

IOW, pfew, they just got lucky.

They have had very specific criticisms of Richards and , to a lesser extent, Chirafisi throughout the trial. If you wish to dismiss all of that by pretending that they are all motivated by some kind of personal animus then have at it.

:roll: That heights and agreeableness - and many other such traits - are normally distributed in the general population? At least when the measurements are partitioned or grouped by "sex"? :think: :roll:
That isn't a claim that relies on the distributions being normally distributed, that is a claim that they are normally distributed.

Thought the penny had dropped. You were so close. Steersman is the Pyt equivalent of glue and paper on the fingers.

No, it's just real easy for them to armchair quarterback. I've neither the time nor the patience to watch long videos of jaw wagging, but it sounds like these experts predicted disaster due to defense mistakes. The defense did make mistakes, but they also got a win, and worst case had a mistrial secured if the jury hung or convicted.

What they predicted or feared has nothing to do with anything. They were not just criticising differences of approach or minor errors, they were noticing egregious errors that they argued nobody should make. They are professional lawyers and when professional lawyers unanimously and spontaneously express such opinions I'll take notice. Why are you so invested in them being wrong? You admit you didn't watch them. How do you know what their opinions are incorrect? The defence wasn't "lucky", but the prosecution case was weak enough that defence errors didn't matter.

I don't believe I am.

I don't do long videos of people sitting in front of their zoom cameras working their gobs while I stare up their hairy nostrils. Give me a transcript. Bullet points. Something I can skim over second breakfast, instead of watching for an hour when I should be out splitting wood.
How do you know what their opinions are incorrect?
All I know is what you've told me -- that Barnes warned their Barnesless voir dire would be their ruin. I didn't follow the voir dire, but it obviously was good enough.

IMHO - Barnes and Viva Frei do a pretty good job with their legal analysis. They more often right than wrong. I think I have watched them for two years or so. Their programs are longer than I would prefer, but this is a common style in the blogosphere right now (Styx, Rubin, etc. are all too long). I don't blame someone for not putting up with their long format show.... and Barnes does have an ego the size of his belly. Still... more often wrong than right. I feel like I have learned from them. If Barnes had defended Kyle would he have done better?... well...no. Maybe he could have also defended Kyle with success... but you have to hand it to Kyle's legal team. Bravo!

I am not 100% sure Joe Biden is a pedophile.

I am 100% sure Joe Biden would nail the audition, if Law & Order SVU is casting a pedophile role.

The petting, staring at the boy's body, the salivating breathing.

Disagree?
